Count Down Rings

We are counting down the days until Daddy comes home, 4 more to be exact. We made rings and put Halloween candy on each one. We made sure to put them high enough that Braden couldn't climb up and reach his. He is pretty smart and uses the stool in the bathroom to reach things at times.

Trees and Gingerbread Houses

Some of the fun stuff we've been doing with my sister and her family since Rich has been gone. We went to the Festival of Trees. I highly recommend doing the scavenger hunt with the kids. Gives them something to do while you are all looking at trees. Their favorite was the talking tree.

We also decorated Gingerbread Houses. My sister's mother-in-law made the gingerbread and the frosting herself. The frosting is like glue and Connor is having a hard time getting the candy off (no complaints from me). I am surprised his house is still standing with the amount of candy he put on it.

Too Cute

Need I say more?

Fallon Air Show

Gotta love the Fallon Air Show with the Blue Angels. Many memories as a kid attending. Hopefully our kids will have many of their own.

Special Delivery

Connor really got the hang of Trick or Treating this year and was fun to watch. Braden got mad everytime we had to move on to the next house and leave the candy. As you can see Braden was not too fond of his hat. His costume was Connors idea.
