Happy Halloween



Kids had fun this Halloween!
They Trick or Treated at the zoo (Zoo Boo), then Dell Rapids had a local business trick or treat the Friday before Halloween. On Halloween we went around Baltic to peoples houses. Talk about beautiful weather!! NeVaeh had just got a new stroller too so she didn't have to walk. This made life much less stressful for both her and me as she walks fine but when she's tired she sits down or decides she wants to go the other way its not so easy especially now with two more.
Everyone was happy so it made it all great. They also decorated a pumpkin and NeVaeh painted one in school.











Happy Birthday Andres!!











There is never a dull moment in our house anymore. Since our two additions came in March we sometimes barely know if we are coming or going. They certainly make for so much more adventure.
Andres had his 7th Birthday on October 30th. He talked about it forever. I really think he wanted ummm everything or nothing......He really didn't know LOL. Some of the things he asked for he really already had and somethings he asked for changed by the day...The joy of being a child. He seems so happy with us and being able to live as a family with his sister. His smile and hug just melts my heart. He has such a heart felt "I love You" at the end of the day. Even when it was all roses.
I must just laugh as we celebrated and gave him the choice of going anywhere in the whole city to eat for his birthday and he choses......McDonalds. :)
Guess he's an easy pleaser.
He was the star of the day in school on his birthday and we made cupcakes and the kids decorated them. He wanted spiders so we got licorice for legs and candy for eyes and chocolate sprinkles. We also did white  cake mix with orange dye in it and decorated them like pumpkins using candy for eyes, nose and mouth. They were eating the candy along with decorating LOL. They had a hard time especially Andres not licking his fingers. I made them wash their hands everytime they licked their hands before they could touch anything. I did twice as many as them but they had a blast.
Andres fared well with gifts too. He got a remote control helicopter from Daddy, remote control car from Aaliyah, Hot wheels race track from Grandma Berg, and other things too. He had a blast!!
Oh and he requested "Susan" from Monsters vs Aliens on his cake ?!
