Halloween!

Halloween was a lot of fun this year--Caden is already asking to go Trick or Treating again--he loved it! Friday, Layne's office had trick or treating, so I took the kids after school. When I loaded them into the van after picking them up from Valerie's, Caden keep saying, "Trick or Treat, smell my feet!" He learns so many wonderful things at daycare! When we got to Premier, he was a little shy at first, but I made him say trick or treat before he could get any candy and by the end, saying those words were no problem and diving into all the candy bowls were not a problem either! It is always fun to show the kids off at work.

One more treat--please mom!

Mom said yes--thank goodness this boy likes chocolate!

Our little baseball player--he had to sleep with his mitt the night before.


Saturday, our church gave trick or trunking a whirl and it was a big success. The weather was amazing, and about 12 of us decorated our trunks and invited everyone to come trick or trunking at our church parking lot. We are right across from the mall and we were busy the whole 2 hours. We think we had around 150 people, so we were happy to have our first time hosting this event be a success. Layne and Caden cleaned the Mustang and decorated it, and Layne had a blast showing off his car. Caden enjoyed trick or trunking--and the treats of course, and then he spent the last hour helping our friend Steve with his putt-putt golf trunk and chased all the golf balls that were missed.
When I laid Caden down for his nap on Halloween, I promised him we would go trick or treating when he woke up--after I left him in his room, I heard him singing "trick or treat" over and over again for about 10 minutes. Needless to say, naptime was shorter than it usually is--oh well!

What a cute strawberry!

This is one of my favorite pictures--it looks like they are having a conversation!

Say "Candy"

Caden has gotten to go watch Layne play softball several times this fall, and he loves it. He watches all the action and if he needs a break, he plays with a baseball or his cars. Downstairs in our computer room, we have several Royals's figures from going to KC Royals game--Caden keeps pointing at them and saying, "There's Daddy." I tell him, that if that were daddy, we would be living in a much different house! Gotta love him.
Happy Halloween Everyone!
