Trunk and Trick-or-Treating

The Friday before Halloween we had a trunk-or-treat at the church.  It was so much fun and the kids got so many awesome comments for their costumes.  Not to boast...but I just spent so much time and energy on them this year!!  Kalin was the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland and Porters was a plastic army guy.

 
Halloween night we went trick-or-treating around our neighborhood and got way too much candy!  Below is our neighbor Cicely (she's pretty awesome)!!

October Fun

During October I tried to have some Halloween craft or activity for the kids each day.  It may have only lasted a week or so, but here are a couple of our projects.  Halloween banner and paper plate ghosts.
 
 
Me (Kyli) dressed up as a witch for Witches Night Out.  Heather Harmon hosts and we all go eat at Chilis for dinner all dressed as witches!  So much fun!

Porter and Kalin dressed up for school in what they want to be when they grow up!  Porter wants to be a worker and Kalin a cowgirl.  Kalin really wanted to dress up as a nurse, but cowgirl was her second choice and it was much easier!
 
Uncle Stan and Aunt Niki sent a Halloween package to Kalin and Porter.  Here are some pictures of them having fun with the goodies!

 


 
Porters Kindergarten Fall Centers activity on Halloween.  We played pin the parts on the Jack-O-Lantern, decorate cookies as scarecrows, Bingo, candy corn picture frame, and build a Jack-O-Lantern when rolling a die.



Boy or Girl?

September 12th we found out the sex our baby and wanted to do something fun for the kids.  I made a cake with the color (blue or pink) inside and when they cut it, they would find out what it was.  Kalin wanted a girl and Porter of course wanted a boy.  He was a little dissapointed, but I don't know that it will matter that much because now he gets his daddy all to himself!
