Halloween... Finally!

 Well, I figured since December is just about here I should try to get the Halloween pictures posted! Hahaha that seems to be my M.O. these days!  


Here is our typical picture by the giant pumpkin picture!

Chloe loved her costume, as you can tell!

Wonder Woman!!

Let's not forget about Batman!

He's quite "pooky" as Elijah says!

A sweet little bat!

All ready to get some candy!

Not much could scare these two from their mission to collect candy!

Trick or Treat!

We saw Auntie Cole on our way!

This little bat looks scared...


We had another fun Halloween!  We all ate too much candy, but I think that's what you're supposed to do!

The Party before Halloween!

Nana and Papa had a Halloween party this year so the kids (and adults) got to try out their costumes before the real deal!

Elijah in his "pooky" Batman costume!

All ready to go... Wonder Woman, Batman, Batgirl, and a sleeping bat! The Joker (Joe) wasn't feeling well so he had or got to sit this one out... depending on how you look at it!

Medusa and Cleopatra made an appearance!

So cute!

Kermit and Miss Piggy!

Good thing there were two babies-no fighting over who gets to hold the baby!

So cute and creative! An egg and the Easter Bunny!

Sweet little 50's girl

Wonder Woman taking a caramel apple break

Baby bat wasn't happy, but oh so cute!

Sweet little fireman to the rescue!



A few more...



This was still before Joe got home from hunting... We all got in our jammies early and had a movie night together!

So cute in their matching Camo jammies!

Joe was home in time for our Special Meetings and to enjoy the company of Uncle Harold... Chloe and Eli loved him, of course!

I thought I'd include a picture of Sammy crying... He is still the perfect baby, but even perfect babies cry!

This picture shows off Sammy's double chin quite nicely!

Photos by Chloe again... Eli laying down with their babies!

Pretty good picture of Sam! (by Chloe)

Sweet boy!

Loving the smiles!!

Daddy went a-hunting!

Remember, this all happened about a month ago since I'm still playing catch-up!



My sweet boy, Sammy with a death grip on his binky!  He went to the doctor for his 6 week check-up (we did it a little earlier than the typical 2 month appointment since he's around so many kids) and he weighed 10lbs 12 oz and was 24 inches long... Definitely a growing boy!

We were making a cake for Nana's birthday! 

Nana with all her grandkids!  That's a lot of candle blower-outers!

This is how Sammy looks just before he really starts crying... Legs rigid and arms going up and down!!

This is what Sammy is subjected to a lot of the time! Lots of love and attention!

While Joe was gone hunting Antelope with my Dad, Mom flew down for a quick couple of days!  While she was here we went to the pumpkin patch with Scarlett and Savannah!

My little monster must have been dreaming of something nice!

Chloe having fun!

Grammy, Eli, and Chloe playing on the "train"


Elijah saying "hi" to the goats!

Chloe feeding the goats

Eli loves animals!


Eli picking out his pumpkin!

That one!

Helping pick out a good one!

Grammy getting ready to leave gets some smiles from Sammy!

First smiles I got on camera!

Aww! So cute (both of them!)

On another day we went to Fairy Tale Town with my friend Stefanie and her little boy Aiden!

Baaaaaa!

Checking out the sheep

Meanwhile Joe and Dad were off hunting...

Pretty spot

Yay!! He got one!

My handsome hunter!


We had fun while he was away, but we were sure happy and excited to see him when he got home after 10 days away!
