Halloween 2011

A few days before Halloween IHop was offering free scary pancakes for kids. I thought my whole family would have a blast doing this, but apparently Coop and Trey are getting old because they wanted to stay home and play with friends, so I took Talee and Dayson over and let them get their pancakes. They thought it was super fun.


Misty and I took our kids that aren't in school to the library for story time and a Halloween parade. They had a good time and got to make balloon spiders.
Dayson was so cute with Talee. After I got her dressed he told her she looked beautiful.
Me and Tucker were very quick getting ready. I had such a short time to get ready I even asked Dayson to try to put T's costume on him. Sad, I know, but you got to do what you got to do. I figured he was already crying what else could happen.
My kiddos Halloween night. T's whiskers didn't last very long. After nursing and sucking his fingers they were gone pretty quick.
The week before Halloween we went and got pumpkins for family night. I am kind of a lazy Halloween mom, it's not my favorite holiday. Instead of carving and gutting five kids pumpkins I chose to use these poke-in-faces. Cooper had to add some horns to his pumpkin, hmmm, I don't know why...
Treyden always chooses the biggest pumpkin he can. When we were at the store they had to bring out a bathroom scale to even weigh the thing because it was too big for their weight at the check stand. That is why his pumpkin's face has so many parts on it, oh yeah and why Tucker has nothing.
Dayson was very excited about his pumpkin. He loved it and was excited to use mostly green parts.
Talee had been sick. That is why she is looking kind of rough. We were pushing it just taking her out of the house to buy the pumpkins.
Tucker got whatever was left. He doesn't need a nose, right? It was funny when we went to buy the pumpkins all of the kids were more concerned what Tucker's pumpkin was going to be than what theirs was. Mike finally had to grab one and say, "this is Tucker's, now all of you choose your own." The boy is well loved by his brothers and sister.
