Happy Halloween and a FUN visit from Grandma!

We had the best visit from Grandma Rumsey last week and are already missing her so much! She was such a good sport to play with the kids all day, dance at Lyla's request, and even go to zumba with me. We looked forward to her visit for months so it was hard to see the time go by so quickly, but we're excited for the next time we get to spend with her, whenever that may be.
 The weather was really nice on Halloween when Sue arrived, so we went to Lyla's favorite park and let the kids play and play. It's been so nice to have gorgeous weather lately and I appreciate every day, knowing that we could be freezing and have snow at this time of the year.
This girl loves to slide!! She and Grandma had fun coming of with new ways to go down.


Grandma was so much fun to be with on Halloween! She got all dressed up to go trick or treating with Lyla for the first time- our little witch was so excited!!
Let's just say Trevor wasn't as excited to be our little cow-boy. Haha- I just loved his costume though so I made him wear it a few times.

Daddy kept up our tradition of a princess jack o lantern. He stayed up late into the night carving Sleeping Beauty at Lyla's request.

We went to a Halloween party so decided we'd better find some costumes. We remembered our Pebbles and BamBam costumes from 4 years ago and decided to try pulling that off again.
  So much has changed from 4 years ago, we definitely look seem tired and less lively now :)




While Grandma was here, she had a little birthday party for all of us since we usually aren't together for birthdays. She was so cute and had us each blow out candles and open presents.

We didn't have the right candles- so Paul had 26 plus a 1 candle to get to 27...

Cute naked baby! Trevor seems to be losing some of his chubbiness and getting taller.

This is still Trev's favorite position. he loves sucking his thumb and holding his hair. His poor thumb is all dried and cracking because he sucks it so much.
Lyla and Grandma had fun making some yummy sugar cookies. Lyla rolled them out and cut them out all by herself and was very proud of using her little rolling pin.

Grandma put on a puppet show with the animal puppets I made and Lyla LOVED it. She thought it was hilarious when Grandma would do the voices




This is Lyla a little over a year ago. I just can't believe how much she's grown up in the last year!
