Mickey and Minnie!!

Halloween was so much fun! My mom was so nice to make Brynlin a cute little Minnie Mouse outfit so she could match Nikson aka Mickey Mouse! Jake took Niks out trick or treating and Brynlin and I stayed home and passed out candy! Then we were off to see the grandparents!! It was a fun night and my kids looked so dang cute...even if Nikson wouldn't let us paint his nose and barely wore the hat and gloves for a few pictures and trick or treating!! I love Halloween!!

The Pumpkin Patch!!

Anyone who knows me, knows I love Halloween so much and one of my favorite things to do each October is to go to the pumpkin patch and pick out a bunch of pumpkins to carve and put on my front porch! This year we didn't get to carving our pumpkins..... (which makes me so sad to even admit it! Along with that I didn't get my Halloween decorations up!) but we did go as a family and had lots of fun looking for the perfect pumpkins for each one of us! Maybe we can still carve a few just for fun even though Halloween is over!! We'll carve turkeys on them!!!

Shot Guns and Collar Bones!!

So this is Nikson's first shot gun!! His new prize for........

Breaking his collar bone! 2 weeks ago Nikson was asleep with me in my bed, and being a total crazy sleeper, rolled off in the middle of the night. He cried for 2 hours straight. We kept asking him what hurt and finally Jake came to the conclusion that it had to be his collar bone. We were going to the doctor in the morning for Brynlin's 2 wk appointment, so we decided to wait and just take him then too. We had to take hime to Primary Children's to get an xray and low and behold he did break it! SO! Back to the doctors to get a brace for him to wear so he was more comfortable. Poor baby boy! Broke my heart to see him in so much pain. It is so amazing though how tough kids are. Dang! I am such a wimp compared to him! He luckily is doing so much better now!

Pretty happy kid for just breaking a bone!
