Catch UP

I thought I better do this before Thanksgiving comes and goes. We did some fun stuff for Halloween and Jaydon was getting into it this year, making it really fun! My mom had her Grandma Halloween party again a few weeks before and so we drove up for the day with my sister and neice. It was fun to go and I was impressed with Jaydon wearing the custume the whole time. This frog custume drowned him last year so we thought it was be great for this year being a 3T, but it was a little snug...oh well! The cousins all played games and then we had a fun festive dinner. At the end, my mom did a scavenger hunt with little prizes at the end. I told Jaydon to smile for me when he got his and he kept putting it on his head? I don't know...
We also went to the Pumpkin Walk and Jaydon was most excited about being able to ride the bus. The actual pupkin watch was really fun too and he liked it through out the whole thing, but at the end they had a scene with the Lion King and then Up! right next to it. He's really been into The Lion King lately and his all-time favorite is the grandpa movie, SO...we lucked out this year! We even went back the next day with some of our cousins and he still had fun!
We had a FHE at our house with some of Jason's family so we decided to make sugar cookies for everyone. Jaydon loves to cook and helps out a lot. He and daddy were designing awesome bats and witches hats. I was just going to do round pumpkins so it was fun to have some help!
We also ended up carving our pumpkins (well, Jason did most of it). Jaydon was interested in what we were doing and helped me pick out the designs. When we lit them up, he was a little confused, but having them on the porch for the trick-or-treaters was fun!
I hate to post so much at a time, but there's always so much going on...we had a fun month and getting ready for the next round of holiday fun to start! Here's a cluster of pictures of some of the fun we had.
