Halloween

The kids both picked out their own pumpkins this year.
Logan was not into getting yucky. He put one hand in then wanted to wash it. Robert and I did most of his.
Mackenzie was not squeamish at all. She dug right in.
Logan finally got brave, after we gave him a scooper.


We saved the pumpkin seeds, the kids really seem to enjoy them.
We let Mackenzie draw the eyes and nose, I drew the mouth. Logan told Robert what shapes he wanted.
Mackenzie dressed as Rapunzel this year and Logan as Spiderman. Mackenzie just had to have the hair. I found a wig, braided it, and added some flowers.



They had so much fun. After every house they would show use the candy that they got. Logan keep asking if this was Halloween night. Mackenzie was much faster and braver than last year.

Mackenzie is already planning what to wear next year :)

Slip and Slide

Grandma brought a slip and slide for us to play with, they LOVED it!

(yes, Mackenzie is posing at the end of the slide)

Mackenzie's 4th Birthday

Mackenzie is a big FOUR year old now!! She got to open one present when she woke up.

Grandma got her new ballet clothes, lucky for us it was also dance class day! Mackenzie modeled her new outfit for us right after breakfast. (She is showing us "duck feet")
She also showed off her moves for grandma at class.

After lunch we went to Build-a-Bear. Mackenzie picked out a pink bear and Logan picked out a puppy. Mackenzie got to fill the bear with stuffing.

She made a wish on the heart before putting it in the bear.

Then she gave the bear a bath and picked out a pretty pink dress for the bear.

We filled out birth certificates for "Rose" and "Spiderman Puppy."

We played at the mall playground for awhile.

Then went home for presents and cake.

Logan even got a little something.

Mackenzie and her Tinkerbell cake. My girl who loves chocolate failed me and picked a funfetti cake! I made sure the ice cream had chocolate in it!

Logan is a great Happy Birthday singer!

Thomas the Train

We got to go ride Thomas the Train (back in May, sorry I haven't blogged in awhile, has it really been 4 months!) Kids had so much fun, even though they are not that into Thomas.
