Halloween 2010

We were able to attend our Harvest Festival at Church again this year which is always a lot of fun, but also a little chaotic (at least to me!).  The kids had a blast and were able to dress up in their Mickey and Minnie Mouse costumes that I had made for them.  I decided next year I need to cut down on the "details" of the costumes.  In my head I wanted every thing perfect, but do you think the kids agreed with me?  No!  Neither of them really wanted a black nose, nor did they want to wear their white gloves, and the ears weren't always a hit either!  Oh well, in my opinion they were still cute!  Here are some pictures from the Harvest Festival.

My only picture of them together.

No cooperating this year.

No pictures mom!  Let's go have fun!

Love this picture of her!

I can't remember what was going on that she gave that reaction...probably Dad making a funny face!

One of Denver's favorites, the slide!

 And the other favorite...the jumping house!

Mmmm...candy!

Kenna loved the jumping house too!

Frosting cookies may have been 1 of the top highlights for Kenna!

TIRED!

 The slide is really hard to get up so the youth help the little kids get up.  Denver thought they were pretty funny!

Then on Halloween we went "home" for some light trick or treating.  We started at my parents house where they got dressed ( and Evan and my dad were able to get their guns sighted in for deer hunting the following weekend).  Then we headed to town to see Great Grandma Waltner who happened to be in the hospital at the time, then to Great Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Loren's house, then to Great Grandpa Melvin's house who then took us out for supper, chislic, a favorite in our house!  After we were done eating supper we went to Evan's parent's house where the kids were able to show off their costumes, play, and wind down a bit (if that's even possible) before changing into jammies and heading home.  Here are some pictures from our trick or treating adventure.

Trying so hard to be good and take a picture for Mommy, but soooooo hard!

In the parking lot to see Great Grandma!

Sure enough, there's the cat!

Silly Grandpa David!

Denver LOVES to play farm with Daddy's old farm set!



Auntie Em's Volleyball Game

We were able to make it to one of Evan's youngest sister's volleyball games this fall.  Emily had a game at our high school, which was nice for us to be back at and a much closer, quicker drive, if only all her games could be there!  The kids had a great time, and Denver would have loved to run in the lobby with "his friends" the entire time!  It was a great game to be at as Emily played very well, which was a lot of fun for us to watch.  Emily's team won!

Watching Auntie Em like a big boy!

Wow!

Kenna and her blankie and baby that are her absolute favorite.

They are a must for bedtime and some thing she likes close to her side at most times.

Of course Emily looked great in all the pictures I snapped, but Makenna did not!  This was the best one!
