The month of October is a busy but, fun month. I already put pictures of Reggie's Birthday on my blog and now I wanted to share some other fun things we did between his birthday and Jordyn's which will be a later post. October first is Reggie's b-day, then on the seventh is my nieces the eight is my best friends little girl, Jordyn's is on the thirteenth, and then my mother's is on the sixteenth. So it is a lot of partying going on besides the other Halloween fun (like the school carnival, Halloween itself and the following pics).
Ella's Birthday was on a Sunday so she got a really cute family party this year. There was cute decorations, really really good food, great company, a masterpiece of a cake, and a special Birthday visit from Snow White (a friend of Bryndee and Ryan's). The girls were so excited it was really cute. Even Ashton was amazed to see her there:)
Jordyn is Bibbidie Boppidie Booping me
Ella's mom Bryndee did this really cute cake. I was very impressed it is far beyond my artistic abilities.
Oh aren't they soooo cute
Ok so one day I was having a bad day and needed a distraction so I decided to straighten my very curly headed little girls hair. I was curious as to how long it really is. So this is how we all know her so the BEFORE
And the AFTER! It is so long I loved it. The first thing she said was that she wanted to be Jordyn again. But, as the night and the next day went on she was so girly with it. She kept flipping her hair back and forth and flipping it out of her face it was so adorable. Dad and Uncle Joe were not big fans. Cory just kept looking at her and saying where did my Jordyn go. She would reply "right here daddy"! He asked me why I would do that to her and Uncle Joe thought it was permanent and asked why? I loved it so much I thought it was so pretty. But, I love her curls too! Hey we're girls we can change it up once in a while right?
Other thing we did was over fall break we did a fun day of Halloween activities. We did it last year and thought it was tons of fun we wanted to do it again this year. First we went to a Pumpkin patch that they have in PG and everyone got to pick out their pumpkins.
Reggie was a too little last year to pick his own out so he just chilled in the car. This year my little monkey was running around having a blast. What a difference a year makes:)
Nick showing me his beautiful pick. We would have stuck around and did more cute pics but, it started to down pour so we all raced to the cars with muddy feet and all. Then we went back to my house and everyone was starving so we made our own little pizzas. Everyone got to pick out their own toppings and build their own. The three of us mom's made something a little different for us. It was a tradition that Tiff and I used to do a lot in college. We made Oriental Chicken Salad and had a side of French Bread with some wonderful Cherry Coke to top it all off. So we downed some lunch as fast as we could because we had some very excited children nagging us to get decorating pumpkins.
They all had a choice to either paint or carve. This is Ty masterpiece (I love that he is giving his own pumpkin Bunny ears).
Ruby thinking......... BEAUUUUTIFUL!!!
Jordyn and Ella decorated very similar other that Ellas painted her a cute girly pink and Jordyn must be my child and painted her whole pumpkin a solid black.
Ashton was the only one that decided to carve his. I should have got a picture of the finished product it had guts coming out of it and everything it is awesome!
Then after decorating pumpkins we moved on to cutting out our own sugar cookies, cooking them, and then decorating them with lots of different candy. This is Ella's cute cookie
Ty is very excited to show off his fancy cookies
Gavin is only showing off one of his because one was already in his tummy.
Jordyn concentrating very hard with her candy decorating.
It was so much fun again the kids had a blast!!! I think it is a fun tradition to start so maybe we'll see similar pictures again next year.
