Halloween

Trick or Treat

We took the kids to the Pavilion last night for games, bounce houses and a train ride. They had an awesome balloon artist. He made Makenna a Minnie Mouse and a deer hat for Brian and a shotgun for Peyton to "hunt" with. He and his business buddy were very talented and fun to watch. We walked through the enchanted forest while character princesses gave out candy. Then we went to one of local church's trunk or treat. The kids got plenty of candy! That's for sure!

Family Fun Fall Festival

Halloween night we went to church to the annual Family Fun Fall Festival. Peyton was Bumblebee the Transformer and Makenna was Pebbles from the Flintstones. Brian dressed in his OU jersey and I went as a football. The kids were able to play games and jump in the bounce houses...great energy outlet since it had rained all day. We ate pizza and huge cupcakes and Peyton did a stain glass craft. They came home with plenty of treats and we were all worn out! What a fun evening!

Pumpkin Pi

We had a pumpkin carving contest at work. Mine came in last place. I don't think anyone understood it but the ones that did asked who the mathematical nerd was. I considered that a compliment since a math nerd I am definitely not! I've struggled with math for a long time. So...thanks for the vote of confidence!
Pi - mathematical symbol....hello? Pi...as in pumpkin pie.
**hello**
is this thing on???

Jack-O-Lantern

Peyton and I tried our hands at another jack this year. But this year we decided to go much bigger! I let him draw his design and scoop the "yucky" stuff out. He's pretty cute...and has a nice glow to him. Makenna described it best, "oo000h".
