I love October - we always seem to do lots of family-fun activities in the fall!
This year has been no different, we are staying busy and having a wonderful time enjoying the unseasonably warm temperatures.
We decided to go with the Lego Movie themed costumes this year.
Colin is Batman Lego, and Maggie is Unikitty.
My mom has worked hard on their masks, and just like every year, they look fabulous!
The kids wanted to paint pumpkins earlier this week,
and as luck would have it, they both wanted to paint the same face on their pumpkin
The finished products - I think they turned out pretty cute!
We have been in baseball heaven in October.
The Royals are in the play offs for the first time in 29 years.
Brian loves that he can share this experience with Colin, considering he was about Colin's age when they went to the World Series last.
Go ROYALS!!!
The kids got all dressed up for Trunk-or-Treat at our church last weekend.
We stopped by the local YMCA first to see what they had there.
All of the kids were shouting "hey, those are the lego movie guys", which makes me feel good considering sometimes I wonder if people know who we are.
And finally, Brian and the kids did some pumpkin carving on Sunday.
They picked 'one happy guy and one scary guy' to carve.
Our yard is looking very festive with the ghosts hanging in the front
And our witch is there to great you
and our finished pumpkins - I just had to paint a Royals pumpkin in honor of their World Series run!
And all of this was done while Maggie was incredibly sick this past week.
She had a virus that has been going around - with crazy high temperatures (around 104 degrees), with a nasty cough. She hadn't slept well for almost a week, but finally this weekend she got to feeling better. Poor girl was miserable! and I am NOT comfortable with her temperatures that high, she was literally burning up!
Now all we have to do is get rid of her fever blisters that appeared all over her lips.
Hopefully we have all the germs out of our family!!
