Ouch!

Livia had a "run in" with the wall yesterday, and got quite the bonk on her forehead! Luckily she wasn't running too fast, or I'm sure we would have had stitches. We are counting our blessings!

The funny part is, I told her to go show her brothers her forehead, and I went with her----they look at it, Aaron gasps of course and is near tears for her----Ashton's comment....."THAT'S AWESOME LIVIA!!!! YOU LOOK LIKE HARRY POTTER NOW!!!!" I laughed pretty hard.

Liv loves her big brothers! They always look on the bright side of things! haha!

A corn maze and Halloween!

We've had a busy Halloween weekend-(Which means lots of late nights) but it's been worth it. We went to a corn maze in Shelley on Friday night and it was a blast. We got our money worth out of the little train ride. The kids road that train probably 6 times!

Sorry for the cell phone pics, but we didn't think to bring any other camera--- Here is the long train (pulled by a tractor) Ella and Livia in the train cart

Preston climbing on the hay

Ella, Aaron and Ashton at the beginning of the maze. We opted to do the "short maze". It was about a mile and a half. :) It took a while.

Adam and Preston

Ashton in the train cart

Aaron in the train cart

And Halloween! We went down to Downey- which has been our tradition over the past several years, and the kids had a blast. I think Adam's parents had fun too. (Adam's mom LOVES to trick or treat! She would go all night, and the kids love it!)

Ella as Hermione

Aaron casting a spell as Harry Potter

Ashton was a super scary vampire

Ahhh! Look at those teeth!

Livia was a cute little lady bug

And easily distracted

Forced smile by Livia. hahaha

I actually wasn't going to even dress up Preston (Party pooper I know- but he's in a stroller all wrapped up--and it's a fight to put a costume on. But our neighbor let us use a pea pod costume--and as you can tell, Preston loved it........or not.)

Grandpa gave him an apple to hold and that helped. He held it the entire night. I'm serious.

What a scary bunch! :)

They weren't interested in pics- they wanted to head out the door!!! Can you blame them?

Happy Halloween everyone! (The kids managed to point out yesterday that we didn't even carve pumpkins. oops!)
