October Fun!

Other than getting tubes in Philip's ears, and me having a cyst removed from my wrist & having to wear a splint that couldn't get wet for 2 weeks; there were some fun times in October! Geoff's team made it to the playoffs, we went on a hayride at a pumpkin patch farm, our church got a new pastor (AMEN!), we had 2 spidermen for Halloween, & our baby Philip learned how to walk!! (sniff, sniff...he is growing up too fast!)

At first, Kirkland was going to be Spiderman, & Charlie was going to be Buzz Lightyear. But, when I came home with the costumes, and Charlie saw that the Spiderman costume had built in muscles; he quickly changed his mind & wanted to be spiderman too! When, we got to our friend's house for the Halloween party, there were 3 other little boys who were spiderman as well! I had to look at their shoes to know which children were mine!

Halloween 2009

Kirkland was super excited to get to carve his own pumpkin this year! Charlie was super excited to have a snack while watching!

He was disgusted by the goo inside of the pumpkin...

He lost interest in about 2 minutes, so he played in the back of Geoff's truck while we finished his pumpkin!

Kirkland didn't want to dress up for Halloween this year...at all! I considered "making" him, but wouldn't that kind of take the fun out of it?!? So, we put on a football jersey, and I pretended it was a costume! Poor Charlie was going to be a monkey, but it was too hot out, so he just wore a pumpkin shirt! We'll try this costume thing again next year! This is one of Kirkland's favorite friends from school. She walked around the fall festival with us because her mom was working a booth. We thought it would be fun to get them balloon swords, but it appears that Kirkland had more fun than Skylar! (Look at his face...looks like he is going to actually do some serious damage with that thing!) Kirkland had a great time! Ate entirely too much junk & even threw up after jumping in a bouncy house! This picture is on the way home! Worn out!!
