Here are our pictures from last week.

Little Missy with her bedhead!
How can you resist those sweet cheeks and lips!
Gavin decided it would be funny to try on Audra's shorts!
Little Missy tooting her horn.
We love painting in our house.


And Audra loves her food.
Gavin made a crown at MOPS.  He was quite proud of himself.
Trying on our Halloween costumes.
Gavin's face cracks me up in this picture.

On Saturday, we were all upstairs working on some projects and heard Audra grunting and whining.  I went to the stairs to see what all the commotion was about, and this is what I found.  If you can't tell, Audra was carrying the container of Fruit Loops up the stairs.  She was having some trouble carrying it and walking up the stairs.  It was quite hillarious.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!
A few days late.  So we started out our Halloween morning heading to the zoo with some friends to celebrate Gavin's friend Noah's birthday!  Gavin had a lot of fun spending time with Noah and seeing all the animals.  Audra was quite emotional all day.  She loved the animals but spent most of the morning crying.
Noah and Gavin checking out the Rhino.  Oh and these first few awesome pictures are not by me, thats why they are so good.  The credit all goes to Jaime, she takes amazing pictures.
The crew, minus Audra, because she was a grump.

At the petting zoo.  Gavin was not so sure about petting the goats.

Audra also was not so sure!
Gavin worked on his super hero moves!

Taking a ride on the tractor.



We then went over to a friends house for dinner and some trick or treating!


All the kiddos!  Gavin was getting some good practice with that pose!
There were several other little bees!
Out on the move collecting candy.
Audra was still quite grumpy.  She threw many tantrums, and lots of screaming when she didn't get any candy and would throw herself on the ground in the middle of the driveways and in the middle of the street.  At one point she ran up to a house where all the bigger kids were standing at the door getting candy.  She shoved her way through everyone to get to the front, where the nice old man was nicely putting candy in each of their baskets.  Audra reaches up and pulls the bowl down and takes a handful of candy!  She knew what she wanted and wasn't going to stop till she had HER CANDY!
Kevin ended up walking her back early because she was so grumpy.  Afterwards we were all sitting around chatting and Audra found her way to the food table and helped herself to a cupcake!  As if the girl needed more sugar!
Funny girl.

The Halloween Festival

We did a lot of Halloween celebrating, so I'm a little behind on posting the pictures!  So tomorrow you will see how we actually spent our Halloween because today I need to catch you up on our weekend.  Saturday night we took the kids to a Halloween Festival.  They had a lot of fun, playing lots of fun games, throwing footballs through goals and kicking footballs through uprights and bowling and shooting hoops a bounce house and slide, all kinds of fun things, oh and did I mention lots of candy!

We have also been enjoying having Auntie Mandy around to celebrate with us.  Auntie Mandy and our little Bee!

And our little Dbacks player!
Audra getting her bowl on.
My best photo of the 2 of them together!
The dbacks player and Kevin.
Gavin took his turn punting the football.
Gavin was having a hard time climbing up the slide by himself, so Auntie Mandy kindly helped him climb up and of course came down the slide!
Gavin knocked the pirate over.

And had his face painted.
A baseball of course and then immediately after taking this picture had us wipe it off.  Silly boy.


Gavin worked on his shot!
While Audra waved goodbye to everyone on the way out.
Ok, this picture makes me laugh, it reminds me of a celebrity picture, like from people magazine or something!  Come on, can't you see it!  So cute.
