Halloween Fun 2010!

Well Halloween time is here already and we have had so much fun! We carved a pumpkin which Mazie thinks to soo scarry! OOOOOO! They didn't want to touch the guts of the pumpkin. They had fun using the carving knives with Daddy. We had our Annual Walters Halloween Bash. Everyone was such good sports and dressed up and looked fabulous! We ate some great food! Kayleb cooked us some hamburgers and dogs and everyone brought something to share and it was great! We played minute-to -win-it games and they were lots of fun. Of course it rained on the day of our party so we played them in the garage. Not exactly what I wanted but it worked out good. Then we decorated some gingerbread haunted houses and they turned out cute. I didn't get any pics of the games because I was running them so I will post some pics when others share them with me. I was grateful for everyone helping and participating! Thanks everyone for another great Halloween party. Harry Potter (Tyler) and Dorothy (Katee) won the costume contest. Chad, Angie, Cole, and Addie won the minute to win it games! Thanks again everyone!Garden Gnomes is what we are if you couldn't tell. Thanks Denice for making the skirts and helping me with the rest.The Princess and the Frog.The Panton's Look Great!The Walters family look'in good!Joy Joy looked fantastic once again. Just when you think she can't out do herself. The Queen as Mazie would say.The Flintstones crew!I had to take a pic of the cupcakes that I made. I was pretty proud of the way they turned out!We decorated our haunted house for family night instead of at the party. The girls had fun getting messy and eating some candy. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Quick Update

This is just a quick update of all the happenings of the past few months. We have been busy around here. The girls have started going to a preschool/playgroup that some of us moms in the ward are doing. The girls love going to school and always have to wear their pack cack. They are just growing up so fast. They are really good when it is not my turn to teach. They do better without me and it frustrates me that they are little stinkers when it is at their house or when I am helping at someone else's house. It has been nice to have a break from them for a minute and go to the grocery store without them. Peaceful and dare I say almost enjoyable. Deer Camp this year was great weather and the girls had a riot with all of their cousins. Kayleb didn't get a deer, but had fun with his family and got a chance to ride the four-wheeler and relax. The dust was about 3inches of black powder in our camp and you will see by the pictures that baths were necessary every night. We have had a lot of firsts the past few months and have had lots of fun. I have posted a lot of pics because they are a great way to document what has been happening. The girls and I went to Thanksgiving Point and had a great time feeding the animals. Especially the ducks.

Oh boy we had the first flu bug hit my babies for the first time. They had never vomited until now. Poor things. Mazie got hit the worst, but they both took a few days to get back to their crazy selves. Just a couple of sicklies!

Grandma and Grandpa came over to help me do some freezer corn. They were great help and we were done in not time. Thanks for all your help. I think of you every time I get a bag out of the freezer.

We went to the State Fair with Chad, Angie, and kids and had so much fun looking at animals, riding rides, eating, and of course riding the ponies.

Miah is a pro rider and loved being such a big girl on her pony!

This was a first for Mazie. Mazie got on a pony for the first time and rode all by herself! She was scared until a few weeks before this day when she all of the sudden started riding her rocking horse and since has become quite the cowgirl. She calls herself "Jesse" when she is on her rocking horse and she will tell you she rode the pony all by herself. Such a big girl!

Here we are waiting for our turn on the ponies.

Cute kids!

Girls night out! The girls went to "The Lion King" @ the Capital Theatre and it was amazing. IT was so fun to spend the day with the girls and do something out of the ordinary.

For Family night the girls and I made cookies. They helped me mix them and then I let them spoon them on the cookie sheet. They had fun and it was fun to let them do something like that. They are too cute! Little Bakers!

First day of Preschool/Playgroup.

Great Grandma Great took the girls for a ride on her walker. They love to go for a ride and get a cookie from Grandma. They also love the Doodlie-Doos she sings to them. Love you Grandma!

What a filthy bunch of cuties!

Uni brow!

Miah got a ride on the wheeler with Daddy and loved it!
