Halloween was a lot of fun for us. Ben was out of town all week so for family home evening, before he left, we had a family halloween party. We carved our pumpkin, ate yummy food, played little kid games and even got Ben to dress up. The kids love that.
I hate to be alone so while Ben was away the kids and I went to my parents. My mom was suppose to be at Ian's house helping his wife with their kids affter their new little baby girl, Marissa, was born. But Stephanie had to have an emergency C-section and my mom had also had a surgery so instead Ian's girls also came to my parents house and we had a week long Halloween party. We had a lot of fun. We did way too much and played way too hard, but it was a lot of fun. My favorite was the boo at the zoo. I love seeing all the kids dressed up and I just love the atmosphere.
After having 7 kids under 6 in one house for five days we were definitely glad to get home and back in our quiet world. I am sure Stephanie and Ian were glad to have their girls home as well. We can't wait to meet their newest baby girl her pictures are incredibly sweet.
My girls love being with their grandparents. Autumn spent Saturday morning as her grandpa's right hand man helping him get his lawn ready for the winter. She then got him to take the kids to the movie theatre - which my mom and I loved every minute of. When we got home I asked the girls "Doesn't it feel so good to be in your own home again." Autumn answered "Yeah but it always feels good to be at grandma's house." What a lucky little girl!
This is Chaz's newest accomplishment - no not the crying from his crib. Look he can pull himself up to standing! He now loves trying to climb on and over things. He is nine months and incredibly fun, he smiles for everyone and makes a new friend every where we go. I love everything about him and love just sitting on the floor being his climbing spot. Isn't he just the cutest!!!

Cute pictures! I hope your Mom and Stephanie are both feeling better. Nothing serious for you Mom, I hope. Glad you had a good time with your parents. Call me next time you're in town and we'll try to do lunch. Leo's even works for us!
We were home this year for Halloween too! It is great to be able to let the kids hang out with grandma & grandpa. Cute pics of your kiddos! I am glad you had fun.
Thank you so much for enduring through the week and making it such a fun time for the kids. :) The girls talked about how much fun they had but I was glad to see them again. Even though the first thing Eva said to me when she walked through the door was "you're not a big fat chubby anymore". Hey that's one way to say you look good after you just had a baby. Anyway thank you again for watching the girls!!!
