The Rest of our October

Things were pretty eventful during our October. Here are a few pictures we took along the way.
 
Eisley is happy to wear her new clothes that she got for her birthday.
 She's always got a cheesy face for the camera.
 Hanging out at Grandma Merri's and Grandpa Dewey's house.
 And again she's got her cheesy face.
 The boys got to go for rides in the tractors one evening when the guys were finishing up some bailing. Corgin's tractor got away before I got a picture, but here is Link. He was a little nervous about it at first.

 After his ride, Corgin now thinks he knows everything about bailing hay.
 
Here is another one of my cheesy little girl.
 And another one.
 And another one.
 And another one, but in this one she had to have on her cool face.
 This is one of the best things to see, ever. I love when we wear them out enough to sleep in the car.
 Link got some money from his Grandma Kristi so that he could go pick out a new Halloween costume. He couldn't decide which one he liked best so he had me take pictures of him in the store so he could see how they looked on him.
Here is the skeleton costume.
 The dinosaur.
 Or the bat. Stay tuned to see what he chose to be.
 We made a visit to a pumpkin patch to pick pumpkins for carving. Here are my three little rascals amongst the many choices of pumpkins.
 The Primary was in charge of the Ward Halloween party, so I was busy planning and making assignments. We had a backdrop set up for parents to take pictures of their kids in their costumes. Here are my munchkins at the party (well, before the party when I was there to make sure all the food and everything was in order, then as the party was just about to start Link coughed so hard he threw up so I left Corgin with some neighbors and took Link and Eisley home. No party for us). And as you can see, Link chose a lion costume! As soon as he put it on he started roaring as loud as he could. He had to be in character.
 My little chicken.
 Still feeling a little sick, we made it to the Robertson family Halloween party. The favorite part for the boys...the pinata.
Here's Link.
 Here's Corgin.
 Who is this little stranger?
Don't worry, it's just Link, Chocolate beard and all.
 Eisley tried to have some fun at the party as well, but she was one sad little witch most of the night. She too was not feeling so good.
 After waiting for what seemed like forever to these little ones, we finally carved pumpkins.
Here they are drawing out what they wanted carved into their pumpkins.
 Eisley was so happy to have her own.
 Corgin was all business.
 Link was too, with help from his Dad.
 Yay! Pumpkin carving night.
Corgin and Link with the finished products. Link's is the one with the mustache. Corgin's is the one with the really big hole for a mouth. Eisley's is the small one, Clint's the one with the wide toothy grin, and mine is the spider.
 All lit up. BOO!!!
 Then in between the ward party and the pumpkin carving, the Primary had their sacrament program and I think once all was said and done, my body needed some rest and I too got sick. My kids were feeling better, however, so Clint took them up to his parents and they went trunk or treating on Halloween. Good thing Grandma Kristi always takes pictures.
They are all ready to go, my chicken, my Optimus Prime transformer, and my lion.

 Some one was handing out beanie babies and Eisley loved hers. Clint and Eisley. Aren't they both so cute?!
 Here's Eisley with some of her candy.
Such a crazy and fun October for us, but we really didn't let too much slow us down. With Halloween over, that means Christmas is just around the corner too. Time to start shopping!
