spooky, colorful, happy days part II





Saturday



was one of the best days of the year.


The warm fall air, the glowing sun, and the pretty backdrop made a for a perfect day!


We held a Halloween party for the cousin love.

The kids dressed up, games to be played, candy to be eaten, and happy memories to be made.

The trees at this park felt like we were in a spooky forest.

It was great.

I love the pic below because it captures the Halloween spirit perfectly.



Halloween cake walk.

Prizes, music, eager kids...!
Look at the warm sun. It was almost 70 degrees!

What a treat for us!
scary music + skipping kids = P R I Z E S


On we go....

Halloween obstacle course

and toss the skeleton!

Lexi Lou, Jakers, and Ashlyn

spooky vampires and evil witches!

Wrap the M U M M Y game.

The kids got a kick out of it. So simple but so fun.

This pic is scary!

It is cool with the wooded trees,

spooky skeleton, and the wrapped mummy (Aus)

(before that pic)

Quinn wrapping Austin up as the two spidey boys watched.

Mace and Carson!

more and more toilet paper...
the rest of the kids wrapping their mummies!



My Halloween collages.

Sorry I do them often BUT it is the best way to consolidate pics! Plus it's fun to create the pics with the colors and theme!

btw, Brookie and I are chowing down a donut in our pic!
In the top far right pic, Ry is leaning over the bridge checking the river for any fishies. (of course)

My spooky man. I like him.

He is now hanging in our entry way greeting all our guests!

Aren't those fall colors sooo darn pretty??

Goodbye!

Cheers to a lovely Halloween day.

It was such a fun day, the weather was great the kids had a blast.....


Happy spooky Halloween day!

What is it about the fall? The colors? Warmth and yet chill in the air? The candy corn and pumpkins? It is my absolute FAVORITE!

Have a beautiful day!!!!!

How PERFECT! Seriously can you even believe how lovely Saturday was???? I wish we could have 100 of those every year! Your family parties are like primary activities! You guys are too good! Luke LOVES Mace's costume!

The down fall of the season is sickness. OK, you win, I change my mind that I wanted fall to come. Sick kids are hard:)
