Halloween

So I'm a little behind on posting the happenings in our life.... it's November 23 and I'm just now posting for Halloween. Oh well, better late than never!

We were invited by our friends, The Steffek's, over for trick or treating. They have a great neighborhood for it! They also invited others that have children Emmett and Finley's ages. All total we had five 2/3 year olds and three under the age of 1. It was so much fun! Seriously ;-)

Emmett's costume was very last minute as what I had planned didn't end up working out. A friend loaned us a lion and I have to say he was the absolutely cutes lion I've ever seen. See for yourself in the photos below. Miss Priss (aka Finley) was a strawberry. She was so cute you could eat her, haha.

Emmett did not want to carry his bag so they'd hand him the candy. He thought he needed to open it and consume right at that moment. You can imagine his disappointment when we didn't allow that!

The Lion in action..... "grrrroooowwwlll"

He's a cute lion that hates the camera so I have to snap when I can

"answer the door, we want candy... please"

Let me start by saying I LOVE fall!!! It’s such an exciting time of year…. football, cool weather (if we’re lucky), carnivals and holidays that involve friends and family. What more could you ask for !?!?!?!

We had a fun family day the Saturday before Halloween! We started by driving to Atmore for William Station Day. They have an engine set up that you can tour and see how it works. You can blow the horn and ring the bell too! Of course Murray wanted them to start the engine while he watched what they did (they obliged). Emmett was pretty excited about it but I’m not sure he fully appreciated it, yet.

On the way home we decided to visit the pumkin patch. Emmett had lots of fun moving the pumkins around. He’s such a worked!! Finley just had fun trying to eat the leaves.

Yea for Fall!!!!!!!!!!

I just LOVE this sweet little girl!



Murray and Emmett listening to the bluegrass music. This was E's idea, he really loved it!

He loved moving the pumkins around!

Wish I could get one picture with kids looking at the camera!
