Trick or Treat

Have you ever seen a cuter Comando Soldier or Green Ninja? 

TRICK OR TREAT!

Josh LOVED trick or treating!

We trick or treated in our neighborhood with a bunch of a friends -- we had quite a fun group!

Luke ran from house to house trying to keep up with his brother.  No time for pictures, mom. 

But, he ran out of steam and got carried around by his strong daddy for the better part of our trick or treating. 

Halloween

Josh's class was in great spirit -- black and orange day and crazy hair day all at once! 

This picture was the SCARY class picture -- I wonder what Josh is doing! 

Josh was dominating the pumpkin bowling center.

This is the center I helped with -- we made October headbands.  Josh was protesting something, but it's hard to take him seriously with that blue mohawk. 

After Josh's class party we went right over to Luke's class party.  They spoiled Josh and let him sit next to his brother and get alllll the treats.  

This picture makes me smile - - the little pirate boy knew to wink when we said SMILE!

Kalispell Pumpkin Patch

The boys and I took advantage of the PIR days and went to Kalispell for my birthday weekend.  Our first stop, only a few hours after we got to town, was this amazing pumpkin patch.  

Sometimes he poses willingly, I better enjoy these fleeting moments. 

The boys did a trike race in a straw path.  Luke was not quite big enough...but he tried hard and had fun. 

Josh was just the right size/age -- he rocked that trike!

Doesn't it look fun? 

Three little birdies

They took a train ride while they waited for the double go cart -- more on that below -- I just think they are so cute together.

Nice smile, Joshy.

The big hit was the pumpkin pillow -- it was a cross between a trampoline and a bouncy house.  They were maniacs on this thing! 

Luke was more measured with his bouncing and running, so I got a few pictures of him.  I got very few of Josh -- he was full bore the whole time! 

It looked like so much fun I had to join in. It was a total blast!  I was the only adult out there that wasn't protecting their toddler...they are missing out! 

I made the boys Bounce me...Luke thought it sounded fun. :)

Then we were off to the go karts.  They were pedal-driven, and a lot of fun.  Josh was almost too small for them, but he did a zillion laps with them. 

Luke was too small to do them, so we waited (and waited, and waited) for the Double Go Kart, and then I gave him a ride.  

Josh convinced me that he could do it...so I let Josh take over driving miss daisy around. 

We were very sad to leave this place.  

Go Cats Go

If this isn't team spirit, I don't know what is!

Josh had been talking all week about the sno cone he would get at the game. You get to pick your own flavor, and it can be a mixture. So he schemed all week and came up with this concoction.  Root Beer and Tigers Blood mixed with pop rocks.  Oh yeah.

Happy Birthday to Sierra

We love the big pumpkin!  I heard that it weighed over 500 lbs!

This picture makes me smile -- a lot of real personalities in this one. 

Cutie faces

What cute little kiddos, waiting for the cow train. 

And away they go!!

Josh driving the tractor -- he's a bit intense. I'm not sure I'd ride with him. 

This is Josh's favorite part of the whole farm.  He loves to jump!

Nice tuck move.

He's unstoppable.

Luke tried some jumping too. He was brave!

Look at that form!

The kids made a train through the pipe slide -- so fun.  You could hear their laughter the whole way down!

The walk through the corn maze was really fun. 

Luke is the happiest boy I know.  

These two are peas in a pod...
