Happy late Halloween!

We had a fun Halloween yesterday! It started out with play group where we painted our own little pillowcases. Christian's was beautiful...so very colorful with a lot of green (I'll have to post pictures of it later). Brooklyn's turned out to where you could actually tell what was on her shirt, mostly because I painted it. She was just a little too young to understand what to do.

As for costumes...Christian was the handsome and strong Superman and Brooklyn was the most beautiful little green fairy princess! They looked so adorable, I loved taking them around. There was one house that she decided to go to after all the other kids had gone to, so we walked up there by ourselves and knocked on the door. The man that answered was so surprised to see her there, he gave her an extra little treat. She even wore her little crown all night too! I was quite surprised.

We carved some pumpkins yesterday afternoon. A silly face and a skull. They turned out pretty well. Christian and Justin did the cutting on the silly face. A little clean up was done by Sheila (he kinda needed it). They turned out well though. Now for pictures!!!






Oh, Shane left on Sunday and made it to Virginia safe and sound. Today when I talked with him he said that he was sore from exercising, but other than that, he was doing well. Saturday he leaves to go to South Carolina for a couple weeks. I'll keep you posted.

Some funny pictures to lighten it back up!!


A rare moment with Shane!

Being silly for the camera.

This just happens to be our first family portrait ever!
