Life Lately- Halloween Week

The story of my life lately is being behind SO here is Halloween week a little late...

Monday

The kids were out of school and wanted subs for lunch - thanks to Pastor Appreciation month I have gotten a lot of gift cards from church people! 

Caleb's last ball game - he went to bed with a smile on his face because he got a hit and had a lot of fans there to see it.  We warmed up with chili at our house afterwards!

Tuesday 

Ready for Halloween 

I was in charge of games in Caleb's class so we did the spider race 

and the mummy race! 

The boys won both games but they all had fun! 

Halloween Treats and making crafts

Picture Booth with friends 

Claire's Crew came over after school and we got the kids all dressed and ready 

We met up with the Mannings, Stones, and Quicks for Trick or Treating at Brentwood 

Getting candy at all the shops 

Preschool BFFs 

Preschool BFFs too!  Big 3rd graders now

We stopped by Mrs. Jenny's house for treats 

Grabbed a quick supper and headed out with neighbors to trick or treat 

The big boys taking a break and riding the wagon 

Caleb, Will and Nathan

By the end of the night these girls were just riding the wagon and not even trick or treating - they got plenty of candy! 

Lillie, Ella, Aubree and Catherine

The Bradshaws had inflatables and carnival games in their yard - it was so nice to just stay in the neighborhood and hang with friends! 

Fun in the neighborhood 

The dads sat and ate the kids' candy while they played :) 

We ended the night with Smores at our house

I had fun with Mary and Ramey - we closed the party down around 9:00 to get the kids in bed since it was a school night! 

The girl never gets tired of a snore (as she calls it)

Thursday 

We headed to the Whirligig Park Opening with the Stones after school 

With their whirligigs 

Best buddies 

The girls enjoyed the free coloring books, cake pops, and popcorn 

With the Whirligigs - Wilson's Claim to Fame! 

Football with Friends

Whirligigs all lit up at night

Excited to have another pumpkin 

The birthday girl was excited about the pony rides 

Caleb was as big as his horse 

This boy loved the corn pit 

Aggravating his little sister - can you see the smile on his face?

These kids love smores! 

With the Stones - ready to call it a day!

We were all ready for a nap

Sunday

Me and Caleb had a lunch date at Burger King

The crew - they had a blast! 

Meanwhile Corey and Ella had a date at Whirligig Festival
