Halloween pictures

Jenna took these, of course, because they are super awesome. Too bad Boyd wasn't in the mood, but the girls were great posers.
This one is my favorite of Lucy with the light behind her.
He would not smile for anything. It would have been funny to video me making a fool of myself trying to get him to smile, little goober, it never works for him!
Oh I love this Daisy face, she's such a princess!
The beautiful girls

Pumpkins

Saturday was the perfect day for carving pumpkins outside. Boyd sort of helped carve his, but he was too nervous for using a knife and didn't want pumpkin guts to touch him.
Mia and Owen were very serious about this 
Daisy just liked hanging around watching everyone. Lucy drew her picture of what she wanted for me to carve.
Boyd wanted the biggest one with a kitty face.
That was mine. I left the eye guts on purpose!
The one on top of the white one is Daisy's that Ken made for her.
Mia's had braces with a broken knife blade.

Halloween Party

Sort of a lame picture, I know, but we got one taken at Ken's boss' Halloween Party tonight. Too bad we didn't get a full body picture of the two of us to show off our awesome costumes... there's always next year I suppose.
I didn't take very many pictures with our camera either.
They have the coolest decorations for this party. There was even a real girl in a mermaid costume swimming in the pool all night. There were security guards at the party tonight, I think for the special guests there.
It's Uncle Rico! 

Terrible picture, but it's Flava Flav in the red sweatshirt. He just took off his costume covering his face. We didn't want to crowd around to get a picture taken with him.

Cute Costumes and Crazy hair!

Sometimes I can't get these pictures to turn the right way. The girls had a little Halloween party today and got to wear their costumes. Lucy threw a fit about wearing a white shirt and so she tried it without and that dress sure is low. So for now I'll have to pin it because I don't know how to tighten it any more than I did already.
Lucy had Crazy hair day at school today and this is what we came up with. She thought it was pretty silly. It reminds me of Cindy Loo Who.
I have been crafting like crazy lately... and too bad I can't show my pictures yet because they might turn into some Christmas presents.

This is what we are doing today... well, some of us anyway.
Lucy's not feeling well today and so she stayed home from school. She said "I can't go to school with hill eyes and a cough!" Poor Lu, guess she'll just have to lounge around watching shows with the kitties all day.

Boyd's Party

Boyd's party was a success! We had some kids over and played some knight games.
"Squire, Squire, Knight" (aka Duck Duck Goose). The Zombie bride is Boyd's girlfriend from school.
The kids had to ride the horsey to joust the dragon pinata yelling "Charge!" It was awesome!
Boyd got to be the leader of the dragon slayers
This one of Daisy cracks me up! She looks so fierce in that mask.
This one of Lucy is great, too. She's one determined warrior princess. Charge! (I stole Jenna's pictures for this part- thanks for being there to photograph! Ken was taking video with our camera- the kids were so funny for this thing!)
The fiery dragon is about to be killed and eaten... gross, huh?
Farewell worthy foe! Lucy thought it was so funny to have the head!

Thank you everyone who helped and came to the party! It was just right, and I needlessly worried, as usual. Boyd has grown up so much, I am just in awe of this kid everyday how far he has come. I'm so happy we could give Boyd a great first friend party!

Dragon cake

Well, here's the dragon cake i made for Boyd's party. He loves it, so I am happy! It took forever and lots of frosting, but it's pretty dang cute and I'm glad I was able to make it for him. Now wish me luck on the party... I've been a total wreck about it all week, hopefully some kids will show up and have a fun time :)
