Halloween Fun!

The PUMPKIN PATCH


The pumpkin patch is always one of our favorite halloween destinations, and this year didn't prove wrong. Mckenzie took a little more interest in the attractions at the pumpkin patch this year rather than just riding in a wagon looking at hundreds of beautiful, orange pumpkins...which turned out to have both pros and cons.

Pros:
-now we also are spared of looking at hundreds of beautiful, orange pumpkins one by one
-we get to do fun things too like ride on trains pulled by tractors
-no more pulling wagons through dirt, hay, and grass...crowds of people..
Cons:
-now we get to stand in line for 30 minutes to ride the fun train pulled by the tractor.
-much more hay/dirt stuck in pants and shoes
-dealing with the bounce house departure drama
It really was a good time and its fun to see their interests change from year to year and watch them grow!



















TRUNK OR TREAT

Its been fun to go to a couple "trunk or treats" and see all Mckenzie's cute friends dressed up. (not the best picture I know, but we were just happy they all stood next to each other long enough to snap a picture).























It was especially fun to see her with her cute cousins Jacob and Caleb this halloween since their costumes all coordinated this year... Tinkerbell, Peter Pan, and Captain Hook!


HAPPY HALLOWEEN!



It was a fun halloween night last night. We went trick-or-treating with our friends Jeremy, Vanessa, Brendan, and Tanner. Their boys sure were cute in their hunting outfits...lucky for us--they were equipped to scare away all the spooky halloween ghosts and goblins!

I'm so with you on the bounce house departure drama. One of the many perks of motherhood...
And I can't believe Kenzie just got her first haircut! That is awesome. I think I cut Josh's hair when he was about 6 months.

We are such a fan of Kenzie. We get such a kick how she wears her sun glasses everywhere. Her facial expressions crack us up . She makes a darling Tinkerbell too!!
