Frost Family Faces

We had such a fun Halloween!
It was quiet and low-key, which is how I prefer my holidays.

We started out our Halloween experience by carving Pumpkins on Monday night for Family Home Evening.  The kids loved it of course and everyone, except Ariana literally dug right into those pumpkins!  Elizabeth knocked hers off the table and it cracked in half, so I used a ribbon to tie the two halves together, and then Ariana and Ella wanted a ribbon around theirs too.


 I kept singing the 5 little pumpkins song...five of those pumpkins are "kid" pumpkins!

Halloween morning!  Charles' work goes all out for Halloween so he dressed up as a zombie, and Ethan was a zombie killer.  Ella was a witch.  I sent them all off to school/work and then hurried and got ready to go to the kids' Halloween parade at the school.


 Not too bad...eh?

 Waiting for the parade to start...

 I could only get this quick one of Ethan, Ella went by to fast...
I laughed at how many "Elsa's" there were.

 A cute little bench by the library, perfect for these cute pre-schoolers!

Then we went to Charles' work to go trick-or-treating there.
And here are my two pretty princesses!


 They got a couple of good "twirls" in!


 This is my cousin James.  He made this costume!
 And my two cousins James and Chris!  Chris is a member of the "Lolly-Pop Guild" from Wizard of Oz.

We got to see Grandpa Frost too!
 And Aunt Anita was there too...she dressed up as a tourist!  We met up there with Mindy and her kids, but they were just starting, and we left to go to lunch!

Then...Halloween night!

 Getting ready for Trick-or-treating!




 Loves these kids!!

 He makes a pretty good Zombie!

 Get 'im Ethan!

 Just the beginning!


 Alayna was a princess too...She was pretty stinkin' cute too!


After trick-or-treating I let the kids finish watching Nightmare Before Christmas.  I forgot how creepy that show really is, but the kids liked it.  Lots of fun for Halloween!

I love fall break!  It's the perfect time to go down to St. George and visit.  This year was different, everyone decided to go camping!  Mom and Jan made arrangements to stay at Ben Lott's Ranch in Leeds and it ended up being so fun.  The kids were NEVER bored.  There were so many toys and things to do that they didn't stop until they were forced to.  (mostly for meals and sleeping)

 Elizabeth got hit with a zip line
Huge bump (bigger than I've ever seen!) gash on forehead, owies all over the rest of the face.  Pretty traumatic.






These hamster wheels were so much fun!  I don't think they stopped moving all weekend...


 What would camping be like without games!


 and there was even a castle...dress-ups courtesy of Grandma...and this epic shot courtesy of Princess Ella!


 Then they started hanging on to the outside...



 And this one you can get right on top...


 I need one of these to keep my children contained and occupied at the same time...

 ATV trailer ride!




And..a shot of the "owie" the next day.




We celebrated Chad's birthday and Acadia's 1 year birthday on the 17th...






(and it was my birthday on the 12th, but I didn't have anywhere to put this one picture)

We had a blast!  It was so fun to spend time with family and cousins.  A very unforgettable weekend!

We've had some beautiful sunsets lately...this picture just does't do it justice!



(September)

She really wanted to play babies with the girls...

 "wrestling" with daddy...


I was taking Alayna's picture at her 2 month well-child...and these two girls wanted theirs done too...




I told Elizabeth to look up...


 2 month check up!!

 Sweet little smile...

Love her cheeks!




Love this gummy smile!

 She's "saying" something here...sure wish I knew how to speak "baby"

This is my mascara...surprisingly, it didn't get on her clothes or on anything that it didn't wipe off easily...sadly I had to buy a new tube.


And Alayna found her thumb! (October 7th)
Because of this, she has been sleeping in longer in the morning and now sleeps completely through the night!!
