Happy Halloween II

 Alex was back home after 3 houses crying with a soaking wet costume from drool and crying.  Happy Halloween!  He tried a Milk Dud and he doesn't like them. 

I knew it wasn't going to be good when I had to force him to put on his costume.  Maybe next year Alex will be more accepting of Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

The boys and I were at Target a couple weeks ago and bought our pumpkins and a Disney book of pumpkin patterns. Evan wanted Donald Duck and Alex didn't care which character he got. Tonight after dinner we started working on them. They don't look like much until you get a candle in them and then they look pretty cool. Our new house has a furnace in the garage, so we took this project to the garage!  No mess in the house:-)

Eric dunks in the jumpy house!

FUN for kids only?  NOPE!

Alex's paint job

Alex's room before

Alex's room after!  The painter came to paint his room today.  It looks GREAT!  He isn't sleeping in it tonight, because it is too smelly.  Hopefully by tomorrow night the paint smell will be less and he can sleep in his bed again.

Chuck E Cheese's

Tonight we went to Chuck E Cheese's for Evan's Birthday!  The boys had a great time!  They enjoyed playing games and getting tickets and got close to 400 tickets.  They got to pick two soft Chuck E Cheese's balls to take home.

 Alex could barely lift the ball let alone get it in the basket, but he had fun!

Shoot the balls into the net!

Skee Ball! 

Alex hit the jackpot and won 250 tickets.  The ticket string was so long that Maria (our friend from Worthington) had to help feed it into the machine.  The boys also love putting the tickets in the ticket muncher to get a voucher for the tickets. 

A School Bus!

Happy 4th Birthday Evan!

We decided to get a jumpy house for Evan's Birthday!  They came and set it up while he was at gymnastics and when he got home he had to go check it out. 

Yes, I even went in to jump!  It is hard to jump, but harder to jump while holding a 4 year old.  I was feeling very tired after the few minutes I spent in it. 

Friends had so much fun JUMPING ALL AFTERNOON!

Evan has been telling me for months that he wanted chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting with M&M's on the top.  What did he eat today, but the M&M's and frosting. 

BIG CRANE!

Happy 4th Birthday Evan! 

Alex was napping, so he missed this and opening presents!

We let Evan open a present this morning.  He got a Home Depot toolbox.  I'd like to upload more photos, but the blog is not cooperating tonight.

JM Photography Sneak Peek



On October 1st we had family pictures taken.  Yesterday I got a sneak peek of two of them!  I can't wait to see how the rest turned out.  The boys did a good job looking pretty cute.  She had a stuffed lady bug that her assistant used to get them laughing and having fun.
