Halloween 2013

We had a fun Halloween this year! Its been super crazy at our house but we got ourselves together and made it out!

 Mallory has worn several different costumes this year. One of which is this one, a flower. I picked it up from Macys last year for super cheap! :) We choose to wear this costume on actual Halloween night because it's the warmest of the costumes!

 Colton only had one costume. Ha! He was a raccoon. I picked it up from Costco for $8.99. I figured we could do something fun that he's interested in next year!

 Baby Cash & Colton at my parents house!

 The kids looking at their gifts from Nonna & Papa for Halloween! So fun!

 Colton couldn't stop petting Colton all night!

We went to a few houses. Mallory was nervous so Papa Stan helped her! :)

Baby Cash had a fun time too!

Mallory, Papa, Daddy & Colton!

We had a nice time!

(Even though Mallory ripped off her tights and shoes! We looked like parents of the year with our half naked child out in the cold!)

Preschool Field Trip & Party

Mallory had her first preschool field trip!

We went to Hillcrest Farms in Reedley!

Dustin happened to have the day off, so him and Colton joined us! :)

The next week, Mallory had her first class Halloween party!

I took an early lunch so I could join the activities!

The kids were decorating pumpkins when I got there.

All things Halloween

For the last 3 or 4 years, our little family has carved pumpkins with the Underwoods!

We have a great time, eating and hanging out! Jaclyn and her kids came this year too!!

Here's Brynley (2yrs) and Cody (12yrs)! 

Mallory (3 years), Colton(1yr) & Cami (10yrs old)

Here's a picture Cami posted on her Instagram of Colton when we carved pumpkins last year and then this year!! Crazy how they both look so different after 1 year!!

 

Daddy and Colton!! :) 

Cami and Mal playing in her Cami's room.

The kids when we were all done!!

Cody/Jaclyn's is Mike from Monsters Inc, Dustin/Mallory did Dracula and Becky/Cami did Ghosts!

 

This weekend we went to our new ward's Halloween Party.

Mimi Kim is going to be gone next week for Halloween so she came with us so she could see the kids in their costumes.

Mallory wanted to wear her Ariel costume. She is obsessed with mermaids and in particular the tail and her long hair! :)

 

Pumpkin Patch

Becca and Brycie were in town this weekend! We took the kids to the pumpkin patch!

I lost my phone so these are the only pictures I have :(

Brycie and I watching the kids!

 Blake, Mallory and Colty are soo cute!!

I did manage to make this collage before I lost my phone.

The kids had a blast! :)

Happy Halloween!!!

 

Weekend Pictures

A few random pictures from this week/weekend! 

We had Sunday dinner at my parents house. Mallory and Colton love to see baby Cash. They are so fun all together!

The kids and I went to Cami's school carnival with Jaclyn and her kids!

We had a great time doing the cake walk, digging for dinosaurs, toss the football through the toy and bounce the ball on the fish bowls

 We even saw Snow White! :) Mallory was excited but acted shy of course!

We started a little reward system this week. Mallory got a piggy bank and we're giving her coins for doing good things and for being a good listener. She hasn't been too crazy but sometimes in the morning she just wants to do her own thing like watching TV or playing and ignore me! Ha.

Mallory is loving this so far. She helped me unload the dishwasher, fold the wash clothes, and get dressed the first time I asked. :) After this week, we're going to head to Target and let her pick something with her coins!

So Colton hated the car for the first 8 months of his life but he has been doing sooooo much better the past few months! I used to use my phone to play him videos off YouTube and then I started bringing the Ipad in the car. My mom saw what I was doing and told me to buy a DVD player for the car so we were going to but she happened to have one from a rode trip they took last year! Yay! So now the kids can watch any movie they want in the car! It's great!! Colt is soo happy here and Mallory is intensely watching her show! :)

We hit up Costco again this week!! The kids love the free samples and I'm addicted to this berry smoothie right here. Apparently so is Colton! He loves all food soo he would! Also I love the double carts so I may or may not pick up extra items I wouldn't normally buy in bulk but it's much easier than going to two places. :)

The fire station by our new house had a open house/fire safety event this weekend!

The firefighters gave out free hats, stickers, coloring books and had bbq hamburgers!

Auntie Brooke, Uncle Shaun and baby Cash came too!! Yay! 

We even all got to sit in the backseat of the fire engine! 

My cute kids and the fire truck! (Daddy was at home trying to organize the new house)

 

We had a fun weekend!!
