Halloween 2012

On Halloween we had our ward Trunk or Treat which was good because this was literally the ONLY time I had to stick the kids in their costumes this year... which made me a VERY happy mommy!  That is the one thing I do not like about Halloween... putting the kids in their costumes over and over.  But, had we stayed through the whole ward party we would have missed trick or treating.... so we decided to leave after the trunk or treat part because our neighbors really like seeing our kids and plus it's just really fun!  Scott had a buddy he used to work with that wanted to bring the kids along which was really fun too.

At the trunk or treat... the only picture I got of all 3 :)

Spiderman unveiled

Cami was so stinkin cute during the trunk or treat pretending to drive the car (with sucker in mouth)

Halloween glamour shots

Get ready for pictures!!  I love taking pictures of my kids in their costumes every year.  They just looked so cute I couldn't help myself :)

Makenna was a Vampire Princess... random but once she saw the costume at Target she HAD to have it!!

Jace picked out his costume at Costco, cause well, he loves Spiderman so it was pretty much a given.  He played the part well... I almost forgot it wasn't the real spiderman for a second...

My new little walker just in time for Halloween!  Her ensemble I bought a few years ago because it was a dollar at Old Navy... so there you go!!  and so so cute!!

Pumpkins

 Of course we had to visit the Galloping Grace pumpkin patch to get our pumpkins!  We met up with my good friend Darbie and kids.  It was a gorgeous fall day.

couldn't pick which one I liked more!  Love this sweet girl!

wagon buddies!

First they were loving the horses...

then they got a little scared :)  Look how Cami's sitting!

at least one of my children enjoyed pretending to be a scarecrow!

Jace and sweet little Carly... good little buddies

The best I could get!  Look at Cami's little fake smile!

we let the kids draw out the designs of the faces and we help them cut it out

Don't they look awesome?!

just ignore the double sided tape... there is supposed to be a corner guard there... :)  

Fall Soccer!

Fall season of soccer was awesome!  Scott got to live out his dream of being a soccer coach.  I think he loved it as much or more than the kids...

Here's the Purple Cats

Jace was so good.  He made multiple goals every game and always had the ball!  We had to explain to him that he needs to pass and let his teammates score goals too.  He did a really good job of understanding sportsmanship by the end.  Scott was a little bummed that he had to miss most games.

 about to score!

silly boy

"Coach Scott" had to be "Ref Scott" a couple times.  

Makenna is really good at soccer but she gets a little nervous about taking the ball away from other people.  She is amazing at defense!  She will not let anyone get passed her!
