Halloween

Ryan dressed as a Utah Jazz basketball player for his work. It took some coaxing on my part. He didn't want to dress up.

We visited Pumpkinland and went through a corn maze. Jackson loved this, because he could choose which way to go. I am raising a control freak.


Jackson and his preschool buddy Max, Jackson likes Max because he plays cars with him during playtime.

This is Jackson's other friend Jessica. He loves Jessica and wants to play with her constantly.

So, I know that I am a little behind on the posting. October has been so crazy for us that I just have so much I want to blog and so to sit down and do it takes some coaxing. We had a great Halloween this year. Jackson wanted to be Optimus Prime from Transformers. So like any good mom I went to the drawing board and tried to make one. I wasn't about to spend $40 on a costume. So, after long hours and a lot of cardboard boxes we did it. He looked great. For preschool he had a costume parade all the parents lined up on the grass to watch their kids walk on the sidewalk up and down, and up and down. Jackson thought that he was hot stuff. He loved waving and everyone taking pictures of him. He kept saying, "Mom, that was such a great parade." I would have to agree. Katie and her kids came to see him and so did my sister Amy. It was fun. Then on the Monday before Halloween we had a family Halloween party. It was so much fun. We all dressed up and played fun games with the kids, and then we carved pumpkins. I didn't get a picture but I dressed up like Ryan. It was a hit and everyone totally knew who I was. Miley was our little butterfly. She looked so cute. On Halloween we got Jackson already for trick or treating. It was the warmest Halloween on record in Utah. Which was so much fun. We would take Jackson around to houses and after just a few houses he would say I have enough candy can we go home. So, Ryan and I were terrible parents and made him trick or treat more. After all was said and done he had a great Halloween. It certainly comes more eventful when you have kids. I am ready for Thanksgiving though.
