Halloween Fun

It has been a really fun Halloween weekend! We went next door to our neighbors Halloween party! They rented a giant slide for all the kids. The slide did not have to be returned until Monday so after church on Sunday McKenzie got to slide again! A few of the neighbor kids came over to slide too. When it was dark and the kids could not slide any more they came to our house and frosted cookies! It was great fun!

McKenzie and not so happy Landon!

Cookie frosting fun!

Pumpkin Carving

Last Friday McKenzie and Landon carved the pumpkin with some help from Daddy! It was great fun! We roasted the pumpkin seeds and had a little snack when the pumpkin was all finished being carved.

Talking about what the pumpkin should look like!

Getting Landon's input!

Pumpkin seeds...some have cinnamon and sugar and the others just salt. Yummy!

The finished product!

Our First Bon Fire

Sunday night we had the Andersons over for dinner. We had a cookout and then Jason fired up our new fire pit! We roasted marshmallows and made s'mores. It was really fun and kids had a great time!

McKenzie's Homework

This year at Preschool we were warned that McKenzie would have homework from time to time. Here was her first assignment. She was sent home with the plan white person and she had to decorate it however she wanted to! Ta-Da!

Heflin Cousins

Sunday, after church our Heflin cousins came to meet Landon. It had been a minute since we saw them last. The boys have grown, grown! It was great to see them and hang out for a little while. We are glad that they have gotten to meet Landon!

First Sunday to Church

Sunday, October 24, 2011 was Landon's first time to Midway. He was such a good boy. I only had to take him out once for being too loud! When he calmed down he slept the rest of the service!

Nana's Birthday Party

After Burt's Farm we went back to Brian and Amber's house to celebrate Nana's birthday. We had a cookout and it was lots of fun! Tate and McKenzie played so well together! It is going to be really busy when Tucker and Landon are old enough to play too!
