Every once in a while, in the middle of an ordinary life, Love gives us a Fairytale.

Halloween

For Family Home Evening Monday we carved pumpkins and the kids got to clean out the guts. It was quite the fun. Cayman picked out a peace sign, Cooper a batman and Cory and I just Jack-o-lanterns.







 Here is Cayman as Merida the Brave. She got to dress up for School and have a parade so we took some pictures before she went.


 Cooper not to excited.

 At the school with some of her friends.
 Cooper playing on the toys.


 When will the parade begin?
 Here it is....



 The night of trick or treating was so nice. It was beautiful weather and the kids didn't have to wear coats or anything. Here are my cuties.





 Cayman with her bag load of treats. She got a ton. Cooper stopped after one block so he didn't get much. Luckily they have enough to share with each other.

Texas and fun

 Cory and I flew to Texas a couple weekends ago to go to my brothers wedding open house in Missouri City.  Here we are waiting to board the plane with my dad and his wife Carma.
 I love the clouds from the plane and I knew Cayman would love them.
 We went to a good BBQ place for dinner that night and met up with my sister and her hubby. They convinced us to go to a haunted house called scream world. It was super pricey and not that scary.
 Saturday we drove out to Galveston and took a ferry out to the dock and back and were able to see a ton of Dolphins jumping and swimming.  It was pretty cool to see them.
 We ate Mexican and my dad ate this 3lb burrito.  Since he finished it, he got a shirt! Awesome!


 Visited the Beach.
 Dad getting a ginormous soda to wash down that huge burrito.
 We made a stop and visited the Houston Holocaust museum. It was pretty sad and depressing and just unbelievable what Hitler did.  It was awful. Here is a boat that they hid Jews on in the bottom. They transported them to land where they would live.
 This is a train car that they filled so tight that the people had to stand for hours. Many people died on this car. Awful.

 We had a fun day and then we went to the open house for my brother. This is when they got married in Idaho and then  2 weeks later flew to Texas for an Open House where she is from. Cute couple.
 We had a good time and thanks to Connie,Jackie and Cj for watching the kids. It was a nice break for 3 days.  I know the kids had a great time playing with Jackson.  The following weekend we had some friends over and the kids frosted Sugar cookies and ate them. It was fun.


 Keep a look out for the Halloween post...its coming.
