Tyler's Field Trip to Camp Coleman

Tyler's class went to Camp Coleman the Thursday before Halloween to visit their annual pumpkin patch. While there, the kids rode on a hayride, listened to Halloween stories, roasted marshmallows, played games, and picked out the perfect pumpkin to decorate at school. What a fun day!

It's Halloween Time!

Last night we took the boys to Trunk or Treat. Tyler dressed as an Alabama basketball player...big surprise, I know. Matthew dressed as an elephant. Once we convinced Matthew to leave his elephant head piece alone, he left it on for the rest of the night. I'm sure the candy and rides distracted him and he didn't realize he still had it on until we got ready to leave. Tyler enjoyed the trick-or-treating and probably enjoyed eating candy the most. Matthew loved the rides and would cry, make that scream and pitch an all out fit, when he had to get off to give someone else a turn. Disney World should be fun in a couple of months! Happy Halloween!

Halloween Fun

Matthew enjoyed his first Halloween. We went to Trunk or Treat at First Baptist on Wednesday night. Matthew went as a pumpkin but it didn't fit very well. Friday night I remembered Tyler had an Alabama uniform when he was Matthew's age so I found that and Matthew was transformed into an Alabama football player just like big brother. He looked adorable in his uniform with the black under his eyes. He even has a football player stance...

Tyler had a fun Halloween, too. He had a fall festival at school where he played all kinds of games like ring toss and go fish. He came home with a grocery sack full of candy and prizes. On Halloween night, I was so excited to take him trick-or-treating. We set out to go door to door around our neighborhood when Tyler saw two boys with scary masks on. He was scared to death! We trick-or-treated to about five houses and then he was through. He would rather play football in the front yard and give out candy at home than to actually trick-or-treat.

Here's two more pictures of my tackling football players. Tyler actually looked like John Parker with that head full of hair (which by the way is getting cut today in a few short hours!).

The boys were inside in the bath by 7:30. I guess I should be thankful. I know as they get older they will want to trick-or-treat all night. Hope everyone had a happy Halloween!

Pumpkin Carving

The night before Halloween, we finally carved our pumpkins. Jason worked on the big one while Tyler and I carved his little one. Matthew tried to eat his small pumpkin while he played on the floor. Better late than never, right???
