A Happy Halloween!

Well the last few months of our lives have not been easy to say the least! It's been rough around here and a lot of things have fallen apart and fallen behind, especially my blog! So here I go, trying to get back in to the swing of things...rather than try to catch up on everything, I'll just start with the latest, Halloween!

Halloween was a fun day for the kids! I was happy that it fell on a Saturday, and that also meant we started off the day with Pierson's soccer game.
I had to include this picture, it just makes me laugh. He may not make the most goals, but as you can tell here, he sure tries hard! (And although it looks like it, no, he did not actually push this kid.)

After the game we headed home to do our pumpkin carving. The kids always love this, definitely a favorite part of our Halloween traditions.

The finished product. I was also thankful to Jeff this year, for his straw bails and corn to make our porch look so festive!

As we have been obsessed with Star Wars this year, my Jedi Knights were ready for Halloween...
Pierce as Obi Wan Kanobi

Prepared for battle and using for Force!

Madi went back and forth deciding on being a "girl Jedi" with a light saber, or "Princess Leia" with her gun.

Princess Leia it was, prepared for battle with her blaster gun!

I had to include this picture - Madi adores our little buddy, Tommy!

And with eyes like these, he is pretty irresistible!

Madi with all her goods, rootbeer on her costume and ketchup on her face. All proof of a great night!

A Trick-or Treat visit to our Hall cousins was also a highlight of the night! Here is Pierce with his best buddy cousin, Matthew, as Mario.

Sweet girls, Madi and Brooke, looking cute in her 50's attire!

What a great night, it was a very Happy Halloween!
