Happy Halloween

Halloween was good, we started off the day at church, then came home put the kids down for a quick nap before having to wake them up to getting ready for trick-or-treating. Before heading out to trick-or-treat we meet my Dad, Pat and Grandma at Sonic for our $.50 corn dog tradition. We have been going there every Halloween since being here in San Antonio. After chowing down on some food, we headed out to Alamo Heights and thats where my friends meet up with us. My Grandma had the cutest costume, then Pat took it over to walk the kids around. After the sixth block or so the kids were done walking. Braden keep saying he was good, which meant he was done. But I think it was because he wanted to eat his candy. I can't believe how much candy they got and poor Aurbynn got a blister on her toe, so the last block Daddy had to give her a shoulder ride. Then of course Bubba wanted one too, so Grandma Pat gave him one. It was cute because she looked down to see where she was going, and told Braden that she was going to fall, and he grabbed her head and said "I got you grandma" it was so funny because he didn't understand if she went down so did he... All in all it was a great night. Brycen was a soldier, Aubrynn a gypsie girl, and Braden was spiderman. Hope every had a Happy Halloween! Next year Aubrynn already requested that I make her Tinkerbell, so I think Braden will have to be Peter Pan, and Brycen a Lost Boy...

Pumpkin Carving...

Carving pumpkins went as except, well not really. I thought the 2 little ones would be more into it, but they thought it was nasty to touch the stuff in the pumpkins and shortly after that they lost interest and played on the playground.
Brandon finished Braden's and I finished Aubrynn's and well of course Brycen did his own. We carved them this year in the back yard which was perfect, no mess in the house for me to clean. Brycen carved Cosmo from Fairly Odd Parents, but it looked more like a happy Frankenstein, and Aubrynn's requested pretty pumpkin which I tried my best at, and Bubba he wanted a scary one so that is just what Brandon gave him. I hope next year they are more into it.
