Halloween 2014

Halloween is always my FAVORITE!!!  It's so much fun to see everyone dressed up and having a great time.  Jesse wanted us all to be superheroes this year.  It was fun.  We were Batman and Robin and the kids were superman/superwoman.  Jack's newest obsession is Batman.  I think he was fascinated by his Dad being Batman so now our little guy just can't get enough.  :) 

School Fun

Here are a couple pics from Kyla's Red Ribbon Week at school.  I have many more, but am putting them in her Kindergarten year scrapbook.  Just thought I would add her pj day and crazy sock/fun run day.  She is always SUPER excited about the theme days at school.  I adore her enthusiasm about everything she does at school.  She is a sweetie!

Tia

My kiddos have the best Tia! She is always so fun and there isn't a craft that she can't conquer! Ha! Very thankful that we have her in our lives!!

Good Ol' Days

I'm just adding a few pics here of just some regular good ol' days.  

Kyla had a sleepover with Nonie.  They both came over the next day just exhausted. Haha!  They made cookies and hung out one day and woke up the next day and went to The Rainforest Cafe.  Kyla even came home with a new pet.  Uh oh....  My kiddos all know that unless it's a human, I don't like other living things in my house.  Haha!  But...since Nonie got it for Kyla we now have a crab named Hermik.  Although I am already not a big fan of Hermik, I am so happy that Kyla Mae got to spend a fun weekend with Nonie.  

 This picture is from earlier in the year at Grandparents Day.  

And here are a couple pictures of K and J just hanging out at home.  I love that they love each other.  Jack doesn't know life without Kyla and I know that Kyla couldn't imagine life without him.  They are so sweet to each other.  It is fun to watch their bond get stronger and stronger as they get older. 

And...here is my pant-less cowboy giving his CHEESE face!  Ha! 

Gingerbread Man

I normally do a gingerbread house with the kiddos, but saw these giant gingerbread cookies and thought I would try them this year.  I don't think Jack knows how to be soft enough with the house so I just imagined it falling down over and over and over.  Ha!  

Kyla, as usual, was ready to be professional and take this cookie decorating seriously.  She even tried to teach Jack how to do it and sweetly explained everything to him.  

Well...as soon as he learned that the decorations were delicious....he couldn't stop licking his and eating the candy!! I had to stop taking pictures because he got so crazy about the candy and frosting.  I didn't even get a picture of Reese making her cookie!  Let me just say that Kyla and Reese treated theirs like a piece of art...carefully placing each piece of candy in the proper place.  While they were creating a masterpiece, Jack went into a major sugar rush, started yelling out words we couldn't understand, and then threw his cookie as hard as he could...  Kyla was traumatized. LOL!!! Good times! It's the most wonderful time of the year... Ha!

The finished product 

Jack-O-Lantern

The kids are at such a stun age this year.  I feel like everything we have done this year has been the best.  I think it's their ages.  Reese is still young enough to be into doing things as a family.  Kyla just loves any kind of activity and Jack is pretty much into exploring and doing whatever we are doing.  I loved hearing all of their giggles, laughter, squealing, and ooooooing as they made their jack-o-lantern this year.  I'm a happy mama!!
