Halloween 2017

Today we are reminiscing on Halloween 2017 and all the activities we did this year!

Ri did not wake up from nap very well Friday night before we went to our town festival but he was fine once we were in the car! I had Queen Elsa and a race car driver this year and Ri's costume this year is my favorite of all costumes he has worn! 

Getting ready to get in the car

So this year we did the Scarecrow Stroll again in our local town, where the kiddos get to dress up and go from vendor to vendor and get candy and the parents get to see all the different businesses in town.  Charlotte loved being able to sit in the pink firetruck! It made her night :) We got home well past bedtime and these two were so tired they went straight to bed!

That Saturday we had a trunk or treat event happening on our street and I had a blast throwing our handmade gravestone in the back of my van to decorate! :) It was fun to just throw something together in 10 minutes and it turn out so good. 

Mimi was in town this weekend so she got to see the kiddos go trick or treating with us! 

Char and her best friend! 

I was pushing the stroller for my friend! Her two year old wanted nothing to do with trick or treating and was in the baby carrier so I was helping out and pushing the baby. 
Trunk or Treating was a blast! I am so glad we chose to participate. It was just enough houses to get the kids candy but not as hectic as Halloween night! 
Monday the 31st we painted our little pumpkins we got from the corn maze and these two had so much fun! 

The finished product :) Definitely going to be a family tradition 

I pulled out the decorations Tuesday, yes on Halloween. 

and we decorated our cooler for the candy. This year we went all out, Scott had a last minute surge of halloween spirit and we got big candy bars and went all out and it was seriously the best to watch him get into it! :) 

Scott stayed behind to hand out candy and the kiddos and I headed out for a walk around our neighborhood 


and by the fifth house this little boy was out cold and stayed asleep until we were almost back home. He must have been so tired because he slept for about an hour 

Our front door! We raced back to finish giving out candy since Scott had to head to work that night so I got to sit outside while the babies ate dinner with big sister watching them! 

We got so much good candy and had such a blast this year! It was just me and the babies for most of the activities but that is alright, we still had such a good time! Halloween might be my favorite this year because Charlotte is of the age where she was all in and totally got it and I loved seeing her light up with all the different activities! 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great Tuesday!

Show and Tell Tuesday: Prom night!

Happy Tuesday! Today I am linking up with Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday, and today we are talking all about Prom! Here are a few facts first before all the pictures of itty bitty high school me! 1) I dated the same boy from freshman year of high school until senior year of high school so he was my date for his junior and senior prom which was my sophomore year and junior year. 2) I went with my best friend my senior year. I had a good time, but missed my boyfriend pretty much the whole time. 3) I went all out for my first prom sophomore year, with my hair, nails and prom dress and then again my senior year. 4) I only participated in senior skip day, which really isn't a thing but seniors do it anyways at my high school, my senior year. My best friend and I met super early on the day of Prom for breakfast and coffee and then just spent the rest of the day together doing random things like shopping, then getting our nails done with one of our other friends, and then ...

Show and Tell Tuesday

Happy Tuesday! Today I'm linking up with Andrea and doing Show and Tell Tuesday!  Today it is all about how to win your heart!  In the four years I have known Scott he has always known how to make my heart go pitter patter! Whether he is sitting with our children and playing and laughing with them, or on a pizza date where we both look awful because it is so spur of the moment because the kids went to Mimi's for the first time in a couple months we rush out so fast without showers, he knows how to speak to my heart!  Scott and I will be married three years this coming June and in those three years we have been married he goes above and beyond with speaking to my heart! Whether it is a random coffee or energy drink that he brings me while I'm chasing the kiddos, or just telling me to go to the bookstore and read a few magazines, I got the kids for a couple hours, it is those things that win me over day after day! What is different about our lo...

Friday Favorites!

Happy Friday Ya'll!  I am so glad it is Friday! It has been. rough week for this momma, the kiddos have been loud and crazy but have been so good this week but everything else is just super crazy haha!  Today I am linking up for Friday Favorites with Narci , Andrea and Erika !  So here are some random favorites that happened this week! Cuddles with this sweet boy have been a favorite this week! I have been having on and off contractions and lots of pain so I have been bed ridden for a good portion of the week and this little has hung out with me and watched cartoons! Cuddles are definitely a favorite!    Trying to let this boy in the house more and more since its been chilly outside.  While the training process has been rough, he has started to snooze in the afternoons and those are definitely a favorite!  Breakfast conversations with these two are a favorite from this week! It is always non-stop with these t...
