Happy Halloween!

We are off to work and school in our Halloween outfits!  This year the girls wanted to dress up as something scary, so they decided on a vampire and a witch.
I was a bandit (planned with the other people on my finance team at work).
And Keeney was the baby from the Incredibles.  He is adorable...
We are off!
Also... Mike has been working hard on more home improvements.  Our front door before and after shots:
Ugly door 😕
Pretty door!  ðŸ˜Š
Here are a few shots of the bank robbers I work with:

A few more Halloween photos.  I was pretty proud of myself for pulling off the vampire and witch make up...

Ready for their lesson!
Now she even has a broom!
Just your friendly bank robber...
My friend Sara and I also took the kids to a Halloween festival downtown.  So many fun things for the kids to do on Halloween!
Aaahh!
This witch loves her skeleton!
Scary group photo!
Look closely and you will see a pumpkin falling from the sky!
Spooky train ride!
Awesome!

such a pretty witch!
Halloween is also the day after my aunt Trish's birthday.  Uncle Kelly was able to go visit her grave site and sent a couple of photos of him with the boys there:
an abominable snowman, buzz lightyear, and I guess Edison wasn't in costume...
Kelly's friend with George
We got to go visit with the boys in their neighborhood.  Here are 2 adorable vampires!!
Edison and McKel
what an adorable baby!!!
ready for their candy!!
at the neighborhood dinner
Halloween night we went over to Maeve and Vera's neighborhood and met up with their parents to go as a group.  It was FREEZING!!!  We lasted as long as we could.  The girls did get some awesome candy.  Some people sure went all out on their decorations.  A pretty fun, pretty cold night!
at the Alice 'N Wonderland house
lots of fun characters!
We learned that Keeney baby's costume glowed in the dark.  He can reach up and turn off the light switch now while standing in his crib.  Its one of his new favorite things to do.  We didn't even know that his outfit was glow in the dark until he turned off the lights and we saw a glowing skeleton baby!  He is such a cutie in his little Halloween outfit 😊
Hi Guys!
Am I adorable or what??
Happy Halloween!

More Moments of Our Life...

Always fun in the bouncer!  Building up those little leg muscles...
Yes, daddy, its fun!
Look!  I can sit up in the grocery cart seat now.  No more carrying the heavy car seat in to the store...
I'm a big boy now!
Also more hikes with friends!  Trying to catch the last of the sunshine before the gloomy winter hits!
Lynde takes the first turn hiking with Keeney

We also enjoy walking to the Bird Refuge by our house.  So beautiful out with all the fall leaves...
our little family...
Dada, this is silliness!

ANOTHER Tarantula?!!

On one of my lunch break trail runs I came across a tarantula again!  Never in my life have I seen real tarantulas out in the wild and then all of a sudden, I see 2 different ones within a couple months of each other.
This one looked quite a bit different from the first one I saw.  This guy was camouflaged and quite easy to miss.  He was also quite a bit faster than the first guy.  He blended right in with the sticks and surrounding dirt...
So cool!!
