Happy Halloween!!

Just wanted to take a quick second to wish everyone a Happy Halloween. Hope everyone has a great night and is safe in whatever you choose to do!!

TRICK OR TREAT!!!

Pumpkins!!!

We have done quite a bit of pumpkin carving this Halloween. Last weekend when we went to Beth and Gary's we carved pumpkins. It's a tradition we have with my Mom and every year we get together to carve all our pumpkins. Adam and I left the trunk or treat early because Evil Kinevel was ready for bed. So, my Mom and Lawrence brought our pumpkins home for us. Well, Lawrence wasn't quite thinking clearly and didn't set the pumpkins inside the net in the back, so they just rolled around freely when they started driving. By the time they pulled over, some permanent damage was already done. Adam had done Dash from the Incredibles and I did the Cheshire Cat. Mine survived, but we had to bury Adam's. So we decided to carve again last night so that Adam could have a pumpkin too :)

The Master hard at work.

Landon with his baby pumpkin. He wasn't too into doing his own tonight. He mainly watched Mom and Dad carve theirs.

Evil Knievel

This year for Halloween Landon is being Evil Knievel. I thought it just fit :) On Saturday we went down to see Beth and Gary and went to their ward's Halloween Carnival. This is his first Halloween that he is aware of what is going on and he kind of gets it but not really. In preparation for the Carnival Landon thought he needed to get more "into character" and cut his lip and chin open twice attempting stunts and cut his lip again at the carnival. He claims he was just getting into character, but I just don't quite believe it given his history :) I'm still amazed we haven't had to take him to the ER yet, but once again he claims he is a professional stunt devil and knows exactly what he is doing :)

Evil Knievel thought he deserved some prizes for just being him and kept trying to "assist" others in picking out their prize.

I don't know how he does it, but Evil Knievel has the ability to find the play button on every electronic he comes in contact with. His favorite thing at the carnival was the cake walk. The only problem was, he liked the music and has a 0.5 second patience span. So everytime they would turn the music off to call a number he would walk over and press play!!



Evil Knievel was being very difficult for pictures. He kept trying to run off to go back on the stage and perform his next trick, after he finished his bottle. Every stunt devil has a bottle before he goes on stage right?

Every year Beth and Gary are pirates for Halloween. Gary dresses up as Jack Sparrow and Beth is Elizabeth Swan (as a pirate). So this year Allie was Jack, the monkey in Pirates. So here is me holding the little monkey :)

High School Musical Anyone?

So last night I went and saw High School Musical 3 with my sis-in-law and my 2 nieces (Hannah and Livie). They were so cute!! They both absolutely love High School Musical and were SO EXCITED to go. They were all decked out in shirts and everything. Beckie took some cute pics, so you'll have to visit her blog cuz I know she'll post em. The movie was really good too. I'm not a huge musical fan, but this one was good! Just wanted to say thanks to the girls and Beck for letting me tag along, IT WAS A BLAST!!! Go East High :)

Tired??

Yesterday while Landon was eating lunch I got a phone call. So, I was sitting in the livingroom and talking on the phone while he ate. When I hung up I thought to myself, he is being really quiet. So I walked into the kitchen and this is what I found. He was dead asleep. I couldn't help leave him there for a minute while I went and grabbed the camera :)

I've been tagged!!

1. I too am afraid of Spiders. The other day we found a black widow in our backyard. I freaked and pulled out all the weeds and made Adam go buy bug killer spray and spray the entire house for spiders.

2. My favorite band is the Goo Goo Dolls.

3. I used to be a huge soccer fan. I played for ten years starting in the K AYSO league when I was 5 and it was bunch ball. When I was in Jr. High I played on a Comp team and soccer was my life.

4. I have OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder) to a degree, but can keep it in check most of the time. It comes out the most in me having to have things organized. Just ask Adam, I drive him crazy with it sometimes :)

5. When I was little I was in love with Bon Jovi and thought we were going to get married because the song Living on a Prayer was actually about me.

6. My second toe is longer than my big toe and my fourth toe is so ugly and ashamed of itself that it hides under my middle toe :) I know I have ugly feet, but if you look at the Christis, His second toe is longer than His big toe, therefore my family is positive we have perfect feet :)

7. I have 2 birthmarks. One on my stomach and one on my back.

I don't really know many people who have blogs except for people who have already been tagged. So, the only people I really can tag are Jaycee, Dee Dee, and Jamie (if she ever gets her blog up and running :).

Consequences

While we were on the cruise we left Landon with my Mom. He picked up a few new habits while we were gone. One is that he now demands to sit on the sink counter with the water on, so he can put his feet in the running water while he brushes his teeth with his new Thomas the Train toothbrush that sings the theme song. This is the only way he will brush his teeth. Love you Grandma Flynn :)

Missionary!!!

Well I'm surprised I'm the first one to post this, I thought Jake would have went on last night at midnight to post! Adam's brother Jake got his mission call last night and he is going to Rome Italy!!! We are so excited for him, but sad too. We're gonna miss ya Jake, you're the life of any and every party, but you're gonna make one GREAT MISSIONARY!! LOVE YA!!!

We're Home At Last!!

So we are back from our cruise and we had a Blast!!! We didn't take too many pictures with our own camera because we knew Kathy would take a ton. Here are just a few pics and I will update more when I have more and better pics :)

Favorite Game!!!

This is one of Landon's favorite games!! I promise we're not being mean, he absolutley loves it!!! If anyone has ever seen Adam's pillow you'll now that it consists of maybe 5 feathers left in the entire pillow, so it's extra soft. Landon is CRAZY!!! His other favorite games are to be launched onto the bed and into the pillows from across the room, or jumping off things like the couch or anything he can climb onto and dives head first onto the floor!

P.S. here you go Grandma Sawyer and Aunt Beckie.
