Halloween 2017!

These kids LOVE Halloween! This year we had a Wookie, a black widow spider, and a shark! I sure wish I had saved that shark costume from when Grey was one.......at least I knew how to make one.

The Friday before Halloween Beau had his little school party. He was not happy that I went. He kept asking to go home. Ha!



The Sunday before Halloween we decided it was pumpkin time. The boys decided they were grossed out and made Matt do it. They lent their moral support. But they did decide they wanted to paint their pumpkins.



















We had to wait for Holden to put on his Halloween pj's for this picture. And check out his pose!



The forecast for Halloween was like 90% chance of rain during trick or treating time. So we decided to go a day early and go trunk or treating. And don't let that baby's face fool you. He loved his costume. He just got really serious about chomping as a shark and that's the face we kept getting. He also didn't ask or anything and just hopped in the car and pulled out a sucker.















Holden had a little Halloween parade at school. He was the only black widow, and for sure the cutest!





It rained all afternoon of Halloween and then cleared off for trick or treating. It was perfect!!!!! The Davis clan came to trick or treat with us. The kids had SO much fun. The baby was just as brave and into as the rest of them. We brought the stroller and he refused to get in it. He hit EVERY house that the bigs did and walked the entire way. We got WAY too much candy and had a great time.




































Other October happenings. Grey went with boy scouts to the fire station and Matt took the bigs on another overnight campout!





Grey got all A's on his report card and perfect attendance so he got to choose a lunch spot. He wanted burgers and ice cream.











Fun fort built by Grey.



They sure love Daddy!



Hair cut!



Second grade fun run!



Ant observing.



It's hard pretending to be a big kid.

Holden is FIVE!!!!!!!!

Holden is FIVE!!!!! This guy. He is such a special one. He is always memorizing things, memory like an elephant. He still loves books. He is really into his lego figures right now and Star Wars. He is so sweet to his baby brother. He is the first one to check on him or give him something that he wants. He is the most defiant of the three, and the most affectionate of the three. From day one he knew what he wanted and no one was going to stand in his way. He is so stubborn, and so smart, and very creative. We wouldn't change him :)
