Happy Halloween!

Jacob got to wear his costume to school on Halloween.

He was so excited! 

 

Later, Levi and I attended Jacob's class Halloween party.

Levi was super excited, can you tell? 

They each made a cute pumpkin made out of a roll of toilet paper.

Afterwards, we went over to Beth's neighborhood for another Halloween Party, then to trick or treat.

Kris had to work, boo! 

My two super heroes!



 

 I scoured Pinterest and made a graveyard dirt cake.  So yummy!

I bought edible markers and drew pics on Milano cookies.

 

I hope they remember the fun years of trick or treating together.

 

 

It was the coldest Halloween I can remember.

Normally it's a nice fall evening. 

This year we had to break out the hats and gloves!

Which I thought almost made Jacob look like a bank robber :)

 

 They had a blast running from house to house, and I loved hearing their little giggles.

Them using manners and saying Happy Halloween made my momma heart proud. 

 

 Can he be cuter?  Uh... no! :)



Day Out with Thomas

We had a couple of hours before our ride on the train.

We drove over to a nearby town to see Pops.

It's known for a huge replica of a soda pop.

 

Finally it was time to see Thomas!

 

 

 

Jacob holding my hand... I melt!

 

 

 

Then they got to meet Sir Topham Hatt.

Usually Levi is afraid of gigantic characters like this.

But he walked up to him and gave him a high five.

 

 

 

 

Time to ride the train!

 

 

 

 

Jacob also got to be in a magic show!

 

He loved it!

 

It was a great day!

 

Weekend Getaway

Friday Jacob skipped school, and we drove to Oklahoma City.

We bought tickets to ride Thomas the Train on Saturday.

Levi is obsessed with Thomas, as was Jacob at this age.

And ironically, Jacob still plays with his trains so I figured we better go now before he gets any older.  :)

 

So we made a little weekend getaway out of it.

Friday we went to the Science Museum.

The kids LOVED it!!

 

They got to do so many fun things!

I'm a nerd, I made Jacob wear his planet shirt :)

 

Jacob got to ride a Segway, he loved it!

 

Up next... Thomas. :)
