Trunk or Treat 2009

Wednesday night we had Trunk-or-treat at our church. I love it because it's fun and a very safe way to let our kids trick-or-treat. It's also great to get together with all of our friends and their children for Halloween. There were some mighty cute costumes this year!

Erin checking out her loot

Grant, as Woody, and Kate, as Little Bo Peep! Oh how I tried to get a picture of the two of them all night, but this is the best I could get.
(In the movie, Toy Story, Woody's girlfriend is Little Bo Peep)


Erin picking out her candy from Jon and Amy's car

Grant took off on his own this year
Check out this cute little chicken. Erin couldn't keep her eyes off of Baby Brody the chicken.


We are going to dress up tonight and go over to see Old Papa, Granny Peggy and Aunt Vicki for some more trick or treating fun!!

Conner's A-Maize-Ing Acres 2009

Saturday evening we took our annual trip to Conner's A-Maize-Ing Acres. We had such a good time, as always, and enjoyed some fellowship with bunches of friends. My mom and dad came with us this you too! We did take a group picture, but it's on Jon and Amy's camera. Maybe they will post it on their blog soon. (hint, hint : )

Our little pumpkin

This is how Grant entertained himself the majority of the time. As soon as he saw the big pile of dirt it was all over. I didn't even get a picture of him by a pumpkin!

This is as close as he got to the pumpkin patch

Erin was all smiles

Grant checking out how to pump water

He was really trying to get the water flowing!

Mommy and daughter... no family picture this year! I should have taken one of us in the pile of dirt! Ha!

Grant navigating the "mountain"

The famous cow train!

Grant with our friends' baby. He LOVES babies right now. Sorry it's a little blurry. We were on the hayride.

Sweet girl

Again....dirt!
We had a great time and can't wait until next year!
