We had visitors this Weekend

Doug's mom and dad came to visit us this weekend.  They came to watch soccer games and they got to catch a little glimpse of our busy lives.  Friday was Jack's literacy parade.  He dressed up as Ben 10



That afternoon we visited a pumpkin patch to pick up our last couple of pumpkins for carving, and some minis too.


Super Luke!




Of course Grandpa made puppy dogs with a little improv on the first day.  We decided this was the Halloween version.


Saturday we spent the entire day in the rain watching soccer games.  Mer and Jack made goals and Max played some awesome defense.    Grandma read stories. 


Grandpa helped out with the chores.



We went swimming a couple of times and played with blocks.


Saturday night we carved pumpkins and made candy apples while listening to halloween music.  Such fun!  I love this shot of Doug getting into his Angry Bird face carving.








Thanks for coming Grandma and Grandpa!  We had such a great time seeing you.


Now it's time for Halloween.  The kids are super excited. Luke went to sleep  in his Superman suit. I just have to pick up a couple of Hippie accessories for Mer and paint Luke's superman shoes and we are ready to go.  The forecast says rain, so we may be trick or treating with umbrellas...awesome!

We love Ya Ya and Pa! Looks like you all do too, and looks like you all had so much fun.

Glad to see that Ya Ya wore the same two shirts at your house that she wore here.

Love the carved pumpkins and the bat wreath!
