VISITING THE PUMPKIN PATCH
One of my favorite parts about being a mom is being able to go on school field trips. The pumpkin patch this year was no exception. For this trip, we went to the Big Red Barn in Santiquin. The kids had such a good time riding on the hay ride, picking out their pumpkins and eating doughnuts.

Silly pumpkin heads!

Carving Pumpkins
Mckay couldn't wait to dig into his pumpkin. PJ banned simple pumpkin carving the first year we were married. We downloaded pictures from the internet...enjoy!

HALLOWEEN NIGHT!!!
We have been looking forward to Halloween for a few weeks. Mckay couldn't wait to wear his Captain Jack Sparrow costume he bought in Disneyland. Nothing was more fitting than a princess costume for our Madison. PJ and I were saved with last minute costumes from our friends Nic and Ashley Haws (PJ's will be explained later). It didn't take Madison long to figure out she could walk up to somebody and mumble something remotely resembling "Trick-or-treat" and people would give her candy. She always tried to get as much as her little hands could hold. Mckay loved the four wheeler rides, haunted house, and Disney movie all arranged by the ward. When we got home that night Madi bolted for her high chair, hid underneath, and began the sugar feast. We have never seen Madison get possessive of her things until that night. We almost had to use pliers to get her basket out of her hands to check through her candy. When we did pour it out on the floor you would have thought her life was about to end because of how upset she got. Being the loving family that we are all we could do was laugh as she pitched her fit. The kids had a couple of pieces and we made sure they had a good teeth brushing before they went to bed.
The only time Dad will let me wear makeup.

Hippie Andrea!
Can you tell PJ is dressed up like a white trash, beer belly, redneck dude? At the ward trunk or treat everybody thought he dressed up like a pregnant lady who couldn't keep her belly and chest in. The looks we got that night were either of grand elation or utter discust. His hippie date (ME!) was totally embarrased.
Ready for a fun night!!

You're pictures look like fun! I wish we could've seen you guys on Halloween!! You looked awesome! I think we need to start a new tradition and have a family Halloween party.:)
I love it! I wish I could have seen it in person. I wouldn't have recognized Mckay, and I can only imagine the fun PJ was having. You should keep the hippi look, it goes well on you ;)
Your costumes look great! Ya, I wasn't sure about PJ's costume until you explained it. :) Halloween is so much fun!
I can't even believe that he wore that outfit. I thought it was a pregnant woman with her chest hanging out! But it made me laugh. I would have NEVER thought he would wear that out!! HA HA!
I didn't see PJ... but Nic told me about it! He thought it was great! Mckay looks awesome!
