I love Halloween!

This week we.....


Had a preschool Halloween party!!

Took a picture with a pretty Barbie Princess.

Got to walk with sister in the school parade and be just like Daddy!!

Got to be the prettiest football player EVER!!

Had a blast being called Frankie all week long!!

Got to take some pictures with some great friends.
Tyler and Chase

(Alexis and Brooklynn)

Carved Pumpkins from five to five thirty on Wednesday. (Pretty sad when you have to start scheduling pumpkin carving)

Had a Halloween feast with Putrid Punch and worm dogs!

Discovered Mom wasn't so boring after all. Oh and Landon discovered that all of their costumes this year stared with F words. (Fireman, Frankenstein and football player) His words, not mine! :)

Mom made Frankie cupcakes.

Which was a big hit with our Frankie obsessed boy!

Went Trick or Treating with our cousins.

We hung out with some handsome boys.

Stood up to everyone in class who said "Girls can't be football players for Halloween."

Got some fun treats from a crazy man named Josh.

Decided that Josh and Ashley are the coolest for dressing up.

Went Trick or Treating with cousins and had some yummy chili and bread sticks at a neighborhood party. Thanks Cazier Fam for inviting us!

Ended the night with a visit to Grandma and Grandpa Caziers and coming home so tired we could not stop crying. What a great week!!

A post from Neal..

This last weekend I was lucky enough to be invited to go on a fishing trip with my brother and his wife's family to Mexico. We drove to a little village called Puertecitos, which doesn't even have any stores. From there we went twenty two miles into the ocean and caught these monsters.

Pumpkin Patch Fun!!

On Saturday we did our annual trip to Staheli Farms Pumpkin Patch. This is the first time my parents have not been able to go with us. Kind of sad, but still fun.

Landon's pumpkin!

Our rule has always been that you have to be able to carry your own pumpkin. Aliya always pushes her limits. She carried that thing all the way to the car. :)

Baby Trey and Nancy on the hayride to the pumpkins.

Cute girls.

Landon getting ready to go on the bumpy, wild and crazy ride. Remind me not to go on this one next year.

The gang!

This was Aliya's favorite thing to do here.

Grant loved loved all the farm animals and they loved him.

Playing in the sand of course.

They made a little swing ride out of a horse thing. I don't know what is is called.

So fun for the kids.

We had a great time. It was fun to spend some time with Nancy and the kids. I really miss Nancy and I am glad she wanted to go. It was really hot and I was exhausted, so we didn't stay as long as the kids wanted. Pumpkin carving post soon to come!

HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3!!

This past weekend a BIG group of us went to see High School Musical 3, Woo Hoo!! Shanna is always on top of every cool thing or cool deal, so she thought a week ahead of time to get tickets for everyone she knows. Thanks to Shanna we were able to see the movie!!

I think we were just as excited as the kids were to see the movie.

Half the gang! We waited about an hour, but we were first in line! Don't even ask we why my dramatic daughter is pouting.

Grant stayed busy being cute!

Fun kids!

I wish I could have gotten a picture of the four theater workers following Gina and I with all the kids treats. Pretty funny! The movie was great. Cheesy as ever, but so fun!!

That went really fast.

We had a great time with my Mom and Dad this last weekend. We had not been up in so long, so it was great to go have a little fun. We went to the Scarecrow Festival at Thanksgiving point. So many fun things to do. These pictures are not in order because I am tired. Sorry!

Here are the boys in the Haunted House. Grant wanted to get a picture with Frankie because he is going to be Frankie for Halloween.

Aliya coming down after ringing the bell!

Landon with his vampire teeth!

Frankie again!

Ringing the bell!

The pirate was getting a little fresh. hehe :) Watch out Neal.

This was the best part of the whole day. The kids all wanted to wait in line for an hour and a half to jump on the trampoline. Landon was very hesitant to jump very high at all. He says next time he wants to jump higher.

Grant was a different story. He loved it. He kept saying he wanted to go higher and he went higher. He just had his tough guy face on the whole time. So cute.

There is a video at the bottom of the post of Grant. Crazy kid.

Aliya went really high also.

And she did flips.

Today is my Dad's Birthday. We didn't leave until later so we could have a big dinner with him and yummy cupcakes. My Dad is awesome. Happy Birthday Dad. We love you!! Sorry I stole your wife. :) (My Mom came back with me.)

My Dad showing off for the kids by sticking an entire cupcake in his mouth.

Grant watching in amazement.

Thanks Papa for showing Aliya this new trick.

Happy Happy Birthday.

I am off to bed. I am having my first surgery ever tomorrow. Wish me good luck.
