Halloween is coming

I love Halloween but for some reason this year I am having trouble get in the mood for Halloween. I am usually planning my pumpkins, making costumes for the kids, finding fun snacks to make for the preschools and so far I have done nothing and it is bumming me out. I wanted to come up with a fun costume theme for the kids but so far nothing has struck me as wonderful yet, that they would agree to. However, my stepdad called yesterday and suggested making them Snow White and 4 of the dwarves. I love this idea but not sure I can get Liam and go for it. Thought we might watch the movie and see if that might convince them. If anyone has a great suggestions for themed costumes please feel free to share.

In the past we have done. Pooh, Piglet, and Tigger

We did a Ghostbuster and a ghost. Along with a sheep and what was suppose to be Bo Peep, but Lexi outgrew Bo Peep before Halloween came around

Then my favorite was the characters from Mario. Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Toadette

I am back again

It has been a little hectic in the our family lately. I keep thinking I will get back to the blog when I get time to catch up but realize now catching up is never going to happen. Since we last spoke Rogan was officially adopted, Landon turned 5, MaMee turned 36, Liam turned 9, the kids went back to school, I joined the board for the preschool, I volunteered to be a Read Across America mentor at the kids school, Alexis started and ended cheerleading, Liam joined cub scouts and started the soccer season, Landon lost his two bottom teeth, Brenna and Rogan started Parents Day Out at the preschool, I got Cricut expression machine, we arranged some rooms in our house and repainted and organized our bedroom and that is just the highlights. Now here it is almost the middle of October and I know I will never catch up so I will give you some photos of the going ons around here and call it caught up. If I get inspired to write about some of the highlights you will find them in their own posts.Photobucket
