Catch up posts! Starting with Halloween!

I have posts that I had wanted to do since Halloween! 8 months ago! Since finding out I am pregnant, I've just become a couch potato. I'm hoping to change that, since it's summer and the kids are home. I don't think they really want to sit on the couch all day with me! (: So, since Neil is at work, and the girls are suppose to be asleep, I will try to catch up a bit. There won't be as many pictures involved, because I want to finish before the baby gets here, but at least you'll get to see what we've been up to the last several months!

We had a great Halloween! We started it out with meeting Neil's parents at the maze and wandering lost for a while. I wish I knew how long it took us to go thru it. Probably if I had written the blog 8 months ago, you would know...

This is the path we took. Yea, I think we pretty much walked the whole thing!! LOL!

The girls loved running thru it. We only got a little wore out, but for the most part, they did great! They were so cute, and so excited to find the next clue!

A desperate cry for help! I'm guessing whoever wrote this made it out safety.

I tried to take a picture at each corn number of whoever found it first. The girls loved it!


Yea, we were in the middle of that somewhere!

Some of us were trying to cheat...

...and some of us got tired...

...and sometimes we didn't always agree which way to go...

...but, we made it! We got all the way thru the maze!!

After the maze we walked around looking at the animals they had,

and resting in the shade.

The girls rode in the barrels. Why they both rode in the same one, I have no idea!

Our little pumpkin heads!

Emma dressed up like cat woman. She really didn't care much what the costume looked like, as long as she had ears, a tail, and the nails...(:...and we found this cool eye makeup that you just rubbed over your eye lid and it left a leopard print on your eye. Too neat!


And Lily went as Fancy Nancy! She was so cute, and it fit her perfectly. We even had a Fancy Nancy birthday party, which you will get to see!

Then we met up with some friends and went trunk or treating at a church in town. Afterward, we ate at McDonald's. I didn't get any pictures of them trick or treating, we were pretty busy. But they had fun. When we got back to our small town, we hit a few houses that were still lite up. I don't think we made it home until after 9:00. But the girls had LOTS of fun!

(I'm sitting here waiting for the first 5 pictures to load, and I just realized the next Halloween is WAY closer than Halloween 2009! I should be wondering what the kids are gonna wear, and what cute little costume I can cram our new baby into, instead of playing catch up post. So sad! LOL!)
