Halloween

This year we had a fun filled Halloween. Jaylie had a party at school Thursday.

A party that night.

Carving pumpkins. We got Jaylie to gut her pumpkin, it took some coaching to get her to do it. Before she stuck her hand in she looked in the pumpkin and said, "I don't know about this," Jason and I were laughing, she can come up with the funniest things sometimes.

We got Kollin to do his too. He would only pull out a couple of seeds at a time.

Our finished pumpkins.

Friday night we had a Halloween carnival. The kids played games and won candy, toys, and of course cupcakes doing the cupcake walk.

Had to pick a sucker with a colored end to get a prize.

The night of Halloween.

Trick or treating at Great grandma Nielson. So fun to see her dressed up.

Camping

OK, so this post is really late. We went camping back in September with my family. My Grandma and Grandpa were able to come up and have dinner with us this year.

Braden telling grandpa how to clean the roasting stick. He made me laugh when he asked grandpa how he got to be such a good marsh mellow roaster.

We had to gather up logs for the fire and Kollin had to help.

Kollin loves Kenny and Jamie's geo. He had the windshield wiper and the blinker going. When I went to take a picture he turned his head to say, "cheeeese," thats what Jamie is laughing at

Kollin thought he needed to go to sleep in Jaylie's bed.

Of course the hunt was going on, so we would go hunt, the one time i didn't go Jason killed his, shot it right through the neck.

Of course our favorite part is canoing. Jaylie loves it.

We took Kollin out with us this year. I thought that he wasn't going to like it, but boy was I wrong, we couldn't keep him away from them.
I especially thought he was going to throw a fit with having to put the life jacket on. All of us coming back in.
