Halloween Activities












Nolan and I have been to the pumpkin walk. Lots of us moms got together with all of our strollers to enjoy the beautiful weather we've been having. The best part was a hay ride pulled by two huge horses. Actually, I think Nolan was happiest when he found a big stereo speaker to play with!

My friend, Terrah, had a Halloween party at her house last week. Nolan was being kind of a pill while we were there, but he was a cute baseball player nonetheless! Thanks, Terrah! It was fun!

In family news: I have been put back in the Young Women presidency but this time as the secretary. I think I'll like this position. We've been busy planting trees and shrubs in the yard. Justin is getting tired of using the pick ax, and I'm sick of shoveling dirt! The weather has been so nice though... about 65 degrees every day. We couldn't ask for better yard work weather. I wish it would last forever!

Nolan did something cute a few nights ago that I want to write down so that I remember. Last Sunday, after returning from a youth fireside, I found Justin and Nolan playing together in our bedroom. They were being all kinds of silly! Justin said, "We have been having so much fun!" Nolan then looked at me and said, "Daddy. Happy! Happy day!" It was pretty funny that he was trying to tell me how much fun he'd had with Dad. His newest word is "hello." He's been saying it a lot today, but when I tried to get him to show his Aunt Lacey, he would only shake his head no. O-well. In his own time.

What a cute lil' slugger. Mom and I were just talking about how Nolan is going to be the best little leaguer because he is so fast! He will be rounding those bases in no time. And Rocky prefers dancing! That's so funny. I'm glad Nolan had a happy day! He does have a fun Dad!

What a cute baseball player!! I'm sad he won't be over to trick-or-treat to our house!! (And I'm still not sure I believe the "Hello" word coming from him....okay, I did hear him whisper it!)

Have a Happy Halloween! Isn't it so great we have kids now that do the work for us. I just love eating someone elses candy. What a cute idea for a costume. Nolan is getting so big. Max is a scottish golfer and Melody is Sleeping Beauty.
