Pumpkins, Birthdays, and Fall Festivals

OK, so to play catch up here, Denise sent the kids a surpise in the mail one day that included pumpkin carving kits. We have never carved pumpkins before so the boys really enjoyed it and I wanted to post pics so that Denise can see what they did....
The first one is Mason's and of course, I believe you can tell which one is Landons.......Thanks Denise and Jeff for your 'surprises"!! It was fun!
Last Saturday, both boys had their first basketball game (Mason's team won and Landon's team lost) and then Mason had a 4 hour All-star football practice, so I took Haven and Landon to Pine Valley Church's Fall Festival for a little fun. Afterwards, we went to the Shank House next door who was also having a festival that was a little too WiLd for us! All 3 kids got a cake in the cake walk and mom and dad got a lesson in where NOT to take your kids on Oct. 31st!



Landon was dressed as a nerd and Haven was Tinkerbell....Mason didn't dress up but did sport his football jersey.....The highlight for Haven was getting to ride in a fire truck~
On Haven's birthday, she helped me make her a sprinkle cake with sprinkle icing......
I also took her to the indoor pool with two of her friends for a little birthday swim, and she shared her cupcakes she made.....
This is Alaina and Tommy Jane...
Our family celebration included singing Happy Birthday and cutting the cake and she got to open her present from us.....a freaky cat that acts way too REAL!! Funny thing is that you couldn't convince Haven that the cat wasn't real!
The kids are out of school today and Mason has a friend over today. We are going to the Bayfield High School game tonight because they are introducing the 6th grade football team at half time. Since we've left Pickens Co., this will probably be our 2nd or 3rd high school game that we've been to in 10 years. Mason will love it! Tomorrow we have 2 basketball games and the All-Star Football Game in Farmington, NM. Busy, Busy, but I love it!
