There are plenty of things to love about October. the crisp air, the colors on the trees, the food, the cuddling at night, but most of all this year was the
Halloween Fun!
Halloween day was quite enjoyable.
frisbee
mummy hot dogs
grocery store trunk or treat
rain
pizza party with aunt, uncle, and baby cousin
neighborhood trick or treating
and then plenty of this
(do you think it will last until Christmas?)
Two days before Halloween was just as fun.
Dressing up and meeting cousins at the nearest witch party at Gardner Village. I have taken the kids every years for the last four or five years and we love it. We usually see the same witches, but it never gets boring. Unfortunately no pictures of them, however we have some even better pics!
The boys love Uncle Ry, however they were slightly nervous when they saw him walking towards them.
Leonardo (without the turtle shell), knight in shining armor, ghost, tiger, Mario (with a turtle shell), a bat and then a bunch of cute kiddos underneath.
At first Corbin was going to be Mario, then after I made the hat, it was too small. He decided on something else. (and changed his mind five other times after that). I am biased, but I thought Levi looked too adorable in the hat not to have him be Mario.
Ealier this year we got the old school Nintendo. We love it. The boys think it is the greatest technology around. (That's my boys, we don't need high tech stuff.) We don't play it as much as we used to, but a month ago I thought it would be so fun to have Corbs be Mario, Tay be Luigi, and Levi be Yoshi. Levi loves to watch Yoshi (the little green dino). He runs around yelling "Soshi, Soshi!! Lellow Soshi, Green Soshi, Red Soshi!" Saying he loves Yoshi is an understatement.
However the kids want to be what they want to be. I think I am now learning that you just have to laugh and go with the flow, let kids be what they want. (within reason) It's for them anyway.
So back to the point. Again, I am biased, but I do think Levi is pretty darn cute in this.
After Gardner Village we went to Daddy's work for a little Trick or Treating.
Work has been good to us. I am so blessed to have an amazing husband who excels at what he does. He is continuing to educate himself. He never stops learning. He sacrifices A LOT to give us a better life and to give our kids a headstart so that when they are ready to enter this world of working, they will be even better prepared. Thank you so much for what you do. We LOVE you!
So for the boys to go and see Daddy's work place was excellent. After we left the boys asked why Daddy didn't come home with us. I told them he needed to continue working so that he can continue to take care of us. They seemed even more grateful this day.
Levi LOVES huckise. What are huckise, you ask? Suckers of course. And we are NOT correcting him on that one. It's too cute. As we were leaving, Levi was getting frustrated, so Justin went over to him and asked him what was wrong. Levi showed him that the balloon string was wrapped around his sucker. Justin said, "oh, is the balloon trying to take your huckie." Levi said in a said voice, 
"yah, bloon taking Feevies Hucki."
(don't mess around with Levi's huckise, we have learned that)
I really do love the month of October! It was almost perfect this year. Now onto a great month of November and singing Christmas songs...right?
(the boys have requested for me to sing them baby Jesus songs the last two nights. I never get sick of it.)
