HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Our busy but super fun Halloween night...

Halloween night we headed to trunk or treat at a church with some friends

how sweet is this pumpkin princess and Elmo

Payne was super excited to see his Elmo twin and BFF Katie! They stole the show! :)

next stop...door to door trick-or-treating-look at these precious kiddos!!!

Addelyn and her best buddy Kairi

"trick-or treat!!!"

Elmo was done..next year we will try it before trick-or-treating :)

After trick-or-treating, everyone headed over to our house for chili! What a wonderful night with friends!!!

I realized that we haven't carved a pumpkin since Addelyn was a baby-so we attempted carving one night-Eric ended up doing the majority of the work...but we all had a great time and the kiddos LOVED lighting it up and taking pictures!

here we go

she wasn't too sure about the slimy inside-this was the only time she put her hand in :) - Payne said "no thank you" from the beginning!

the finished product

her silly pumpkin pace

I love these silly kiddos

cleaning and little people tea party

showing off her pumpkin window cling

whenever Eric or I get out the broom, the kids run to the closet and each grab an empty swiffer...they LOVE cleaning with us-if only I could get them to not "sweep" my piles with me! ha!

they are super happy cleaners

Payne came and got me last week and said "wook mom!" He was so proud! I LOVE IT!

is this considered a "little people tea party?"
