Halloween Fun

We had such a blast with the kids this year. We let them both pick out their costumes. A princess for Ellie an Astronaut for Ethan.
It got a little chilly after dark.

i was feeling pretty RAD in my eighties outfit. HA!

The extent of dressing Clair up was for the one picture. My little Cabbage patch baby.

Carving up a couple of our home grown pumpkins.

Fun at AFA's Oktoberfest

It was a beautiful day. We had a great time on Saturday at Oktoberfest. R picked up a great deal on skies, boots and poles. The kids had fun playing games and running around on the Air Force Football field.
Ethan checked out this glider and I spoke with the pilots all about it. Ellie was not too sure about the falcon.

Ready, Set , GO! Ethan and Ellie loved racing each other on this obstacle course.

The slide at the end... the best part.

Me and Claire.

Our first hike with Claire

Today, we took the kids up to Mueller State Park for a fun hike and picnic. It was a bit chilly but not windy so pretty nice. Okay, and just so you know I had stuff in my front pockets in this picture. love this pic...

exploring a cool fort.

Claire loved looking up at the trees and sky.

It is finally a bit chilly today and we've spotted a little snow on Pike's Peak . A good day to stay home and bake. Maybe some banana bread, since I seem to be out of pumpkin. Ethan didn't have school. So, no driving today...yay! This was last Sunday. Claire's first visit to church.

Don't worry: Richard posed this picture.

Me and two of my chicks.

getting stronger and it looks like more wet.
