Happy Halloween!

GRRR!
So sweet with AnnaRose

Caden, Mark, Adison, and Makenna

Ready to trick or treat

Mark and Makenna had a GREAT time Trick or Treating tonight! Makenna kept going back and forth all day whether she was going to be Spider Girl or a Butterfly. Obviously she finally decided on Spider Girl. It was fun for them to go as Spider Man and Spider Girl. My friend Jill brought Adison and Caden over to trick or treat with them for a while. They outlasted our kids by a lot. It was SO cold out tonight, but they were troopers. Matt's cousin Courtney, her husband Terry and their new baby, AnnaRose came up from Indy so we had all the Aunts and Uncles over for dinner before the kids went out. It was such a fun night. They were exhausted and crashed hard.

Hangin' Out in the Hot Tub

Playing Zingo! (They're new favorite game!)

Mark and Makenna were so excited for my brother Ryan and his girlfriend Alex to come and visit last weekend. They kept counting down the days and I even heard them the morning they were coming say as soon as they woke up, "Today is the day Uncle Ryan and Alex come!" They had the best time with them. They played the game "Zingo" A LOT and Ryan and Alex were troopers about it. They also did puzzles together, played lots of games, and got in the hot tub everyday. Makenna even enjoyed putting Ryan "in jail" almost everyday. It was Alex's 27th Birthday on Monday so we got her a cake and sang to her. They were so sad to see them go.

Adventure in Space

Mark and Makenna have been playing Dress Up a TON lately. They come up with the craziest stories and scenarios. This particular day they were going on an adventure in space, although they were wearing their pirate gear.

Paper Airplanes

Mark and Makenna had Matt make them paper airplanes the other day and they just had the best time playing with them. Makenna has also loved dressing in Halloween outfits everyday. She loves her black and orange!

Mark Field Trip

Picking out his Pumpkin
So proud of his pick

What a cutie

All smiles in front of the big pumpkin

Mark had his field trip to the pumpkin patch last Wednesday. He had so much fun picking out his pumpkin and playing around. We actually ran into some of Matt's cousins kids and Mark was so excited to see them. It was a great day!
