Halloween 2012

 Our first Halloween without Daddy in 5 years. I tackled carving the pumpkins and think I did a pretty good job considering.

 Look at those beauties!
 This year Payton was a gypsy fortune teller and Wyatt decided on a were wolf.
We missed Daddy but are blessed with awesome neighbors who helped make this a memorable Halloween.

Halloween Sleepover

 Payton hosted a Halloween costume sleepover this weekend. 7 girls came over, 6 stayed the night. It was chaotic and loud and fun. Chaotic and loud for me, fun for the girls. Above is "ghostly grub". It was a pinterest find - looked better than it tasted and wasn't really a big hit.
 My eyeball cake pops were creepy and cool, but again not so tasty.
 The decorations were amazing. We all worked hard getting the house ready. Uncle Bill and AA even helped out.
 Here are the sleeping quarters - 2 girls to a tent.
 AA added the Manor Suites touch.
 Crazy webs and creepy witches!

 And another creepy witch!
 Payton at her "desk". This was where the girls were greeted.

 Wyatt played "Bones", the resident creepy skeleton. Not sure if you can tell from this first picture but he had quite the swagger and attitude while playing the role. He arrived late due to a hockey game (Again, thanks Uncle Bill!) but he took his role very seriously. He felt it was his job to remain creepy throughout the night, refusing to take the mask off at all. He even excused himself to eat his favorite treat of the night - a matching cupcake. (I cannot take credit for those, they were brought by a party guest and thank goodness because my 2 treats were duds)
All in all a sleepover success.

Oma's Pumpkin Patch

 Today was our first Dehesa field trip. We went to Oma's Pumpkin Patch in Lakeside. It was so fun.
 The kids LOVED the cotton seed hill. California sledding at it's finest!
