Halloween Party

Matty had his Halloween party at school today.  The kids paraded around the church courtyard and then the moms were invited to stay for a little party.  We had a great time!

The parade was so much fun!

 His classroom was decorated for the occasion.  So cute!

We played Halloween bingo!

Circle time included a prayer, story, and special spooky song.

Party

This morning, we went to a neighbor's Halloween party.  There were a ton of kids and parents there, as well as a balloon man and a bounce house.  Matty had a special red spider balloon made for him, but wouldn't go into the bounce house.  Zach decided to give it a try, but once he got inside, he freaked out when a bunch of older kids started jumping all around him.  So, I had to climb inside to retrieve him.

The only decent pic from the party.

 After the party, the boys wanted to "help" out with some yard work.

Halloweens Past

With Halloween right around the corner, I thought it would be fun to look back at previous holidays!

Lucky Boy

Zach was the lucky one yesterday...while Jeremy was at work, I was having 2 teeth drilled, and Matty was at school, Zach had a fun morning playing with my Mom!

I-Lan Park

What better way to spend a beautiful fall morning than to go to a fun park!  We are really enjoying this great weather!

They loved all of the slides!

Best buddies.

Fall Fun

The boys love playing in the leaves, which is a good thing because our yard has been covered lately!  Zach has also taken an interest in Matty's tricycle, and Matty likes to help Jeremy out with the leaf blower.

Zach wasn't sure about the helmet.

Zach loves standing in front of the blower.

Fire Truck Day

Matty had a special day at his school today...a fire truck visited his class!  He dressed up for the occasion (and so did Zach)!

Birthday Fun

We had a yummy birthday dinner at my parents' house yesterday.  Even though I am not excited about being another year older, it was nice spending an evening with my family.
