Halloween Festivities

Cambry and Vienna are in a homeschooling group called Classical Conversations. We meet together with these wonderful families for instruction and learning. This time we got to go on a nature walk. They found different plants parts and drew them in their nature journals.

Devin and I took an adult trip to frightmares at Lagoon with Noelle, Cory and Sara. Oh gosh, we had so much fun! I was grateful to be over morning sickness and got to ride most of the rides just fine.

Cute Cambers showing off her loot from Frightmares, sweet fireman's hat, shades, and lucky rabbit's foot.

Cambers drew her name all spooky for Halloween

In between all the Halloween fun, Devin and Neal got to take their Grandma to a BYU football game

The little jar heads

Our scarecrow is always a favorite friend and these girls love it each year when I pull it out. It's getting a little raggedy, but I can't seem to tell them to stop playing with it. It's so cute to me to see them carting it around the yard.

Another Frightmare adventure with the Rowe cousins

The kids got these train whistles in the pioneer village. They were pretty cute for about 3 minutes...

Noelle took all the big kids on the ferris wheel, while I just had Sophie and Myla in my carriage. What a fun time.

Noelle took Veena and Will on a ride... Aren't they twins?! and isn't it so obvious that Noelle is their mother?!

I never thought I'd say this, but Long live Lagoon!!! 

We had such a mild, warm fall! Jess and I took all our girls up to hike donut falls, to extend our hiking in skirts legacy. 

These guys are such great hikers and love being outside in nature. It makes mine and Devin's hearts so happy.

Family night mid October we loaded up the crew and headed to a pumpkin patch in Riverton to find the best pumpkins in the valley.

This place is so fun. They park a dozen tractors around and let the kids climb all over them.

We had a great time in the corn mazes, and the girls took turns being in charge of which way to turn and who got to be the leader, walking in front. These things are extra important to these 2 girls.

Hooray! All the family on one bale of hay!

Myla: queen of the itty bitty pumpkins!

Myla shared her thrown with her sisters.

Love this meek happy little friend.

Over the next weekend we had a fun time together carving our pumpkins at home.

Veena was not impressed with how slimy the pumpkin guts are, and oversaw Dad as he did the dirty work.

Devin always carves his pumpkin to please the girls, and they are never disappointed.

This year, Myla was so excited to be this cute little lady bug for the parties.

Cambry loves stripes, and was ecstatic to be a witch in all stripes. 

When we were on our way to goodwill to find costumes, Veena said from the backseat- I hope we find a bat costume. I couldn't believe it when I found this costume in her favorite colors, in her size, and with big flappy wings- just what she wanted.

The Frampton Halloween party. Witches Cambers, Grandma Beck and Abigal.

We loved Finn's costume!

And baby Booga's old lady get up.

Bat Veena and Monster Wellsy strike a pose

Abi is so good with little ones. Myla snuggled right up to her for 30 seconds at a time while she needed a break from running around.

We played lots of fun minute to win it games that are always mass chaos and always leave us laughing until our sides ache.

Another day, another fun pumpkin patch, hay ride, tractor climbing adventure.

Halloween night we attended the annual Jorgensen party. We love eating a spooky dinner and love trick or treating with all the Utah Rappleye cousins. Myla really caught on to trick or treating this year and wouldn't let anyone hold her loot. She ran from house to house, usually the last one to get to the door out of the group, and after the people put a candy in her bucket, she kept it out and just stared at the candy giver. Most of the times, they gave her another one and commented on how little and cute she was. She had almost double the candy as her sisters! Little charmer.

Happy Halloween!
