Halloween Party

On Sunday we got together with Joels' family to have a Halloween party. Joels' Grandparents had a surprise for us when they arrived. We heard they were dressing up, but didn't know what they were going to be. We've nicknamed Grandpa Ron to be Grandpa Ernie. He used to tease Kaleb by calling him that. So now we call him Ernie. Also Grandma Arlene had some batman pieces leftover from making Kaleb's costume. So when they arrived, we were very surprised. It was hilarious. They are the most awesome Grandparents ever. We love them so much. All the kids dressed up too. Here are some pics:

Happy Birthday Kaleb!

Wow! I can't believe my oldest is 4! Kalebs' birthday was on the 24th. If you don't know, he is completely obsessed with Batman right now. His Great grandma Arlene was kind enough to make him his costume for Halloween and he loves it. He's so lucky to have such a wonderful family. We celebrated on his birthday with Grandparents and had a family party on the following Sunday. He loved the presents he got. Thanks to everyone for coming. We love you all. Happy Birthday Kaleb. We love you so much. You have been such a joy and blessing to us. Here are some pics of his parties:

Super cute batman.


Happy Avree

He has to make the batman face.


I have to laugh at Uncle Ty. They always tease me when I feed Avree because I tend to open my mouth. Well as you can see, it's hard not to do.

Kaleb and his new Batman toy. He loved it!

The Batman

About a month ago, we decided to redo Kaleb's room. I painted the room blue and put up some beadboard. Joel painted Batman on the wall for him. It took some time, but he finished it this morning for him. It looks pretty awesome. If anyone would like some murals done in there home, I know an awesome artist!


Work in progress

The final product

Lately

Here are some pics of what we've been up to lately. Kaleb had a school field trip to Cornbelly's at Thanksgiving point and then we went to a pumpkin patch last Friday with some neighbor kids. Overall it was pretty fun. Avree was super tired by the time we were done with the pumpkin patch. Sometimes it makes you wonder if they are really having as much fun as you hoped they would. With all the whining and crying, it makes me wonder. :)
