Halloween Costumes

As in other years we like to do a family theme for Halloween. Our theme was Alice in Wonderland. We had a lot of fun at our Ward Halloween party and are looking forward to going out again tonight.

 

 

Schnepf Farms

Schnepf Farms is always one of our favorite family activities that we look forward to each year. It is about 1 1/2 hours away from our house in Queen Creek but well worth the drive. It is never too crowded and there is tons to do.

 

 

Riding on the bumblebee is Avery's first ride she has ever been on.  At first she was a little scared but then warmed and went on it 3 or 4 more times. 

 



 

 

Dad powered the boys around the track while mom and Avery ate a yummy italian ice.

We went on the spooky train at night.  We enjoyed it until one of the teenagers playing a scary guy hopped on Josh's side and stayed there for a long time roaring at Josh while he was terrified and crying : (

 

Overall though we had a blast and can't wait to go back again next year. 

Ethan's 8th Birthday

It is hard to believe my Ethan is already 8 years old. The time goes by way too fast.  This year was not his turn to have a party so instead he got to choose a fun family activity.  His birthday fell on General Conference Sunday, so we decided to do his activity on the Friday night before.  We went to Peter Piper Pizza because my boys are always asking to go there.  We also had Ethan's friend Braxton staying the night with us so it was extra fun playing games. 

 

Tons of prizes yippee!

On Ethan's birthday Sunday morning he finally got to open his presents.  And as he hoped for he got all of the ninjago guys on his birthday list. 

 

Next up will be his baptism this Saturday.  It sure is great to be 8!
