Our Halloween weekend!

Our Halloween Post will be mostly pictures and describing what we did this past weekend! Friday evening we had Mom and Dad VV, Kristin, Lily and Nolan over to carve pumpkins! The kids had alot of fun playing together, and I think the adults did most of the cleaning of the pumpkins and the carving! Grammy and Papa brought the kids trick-or-treat basket's/treats to our house that evening as well! That evening Gavin slept with all of his 'cars' from Grammy and Papa!
Our finished product!

Saturday Morning we roasted our pumpkin seeds and got everything together for trick or treating!

Gavin took a long afternoon nap before trick or treating started! Thanks goodness too, otherwise he would have been so crabby! After his nap it was time to get his costume on and head out! Dave and Gavin went out with Jeff and Jackson around the neighborhood! Jackson was a monkey! and Gavin...our little Bat!

Gavin got some yummy Candy, most of which he won't be consuming :) due to the fact that myself or Dave will get to it before him :)

I counted our trick-or-treaters and we had about 50 of them! Pretty good! I actually thought there would be more! I was shocked that it was so 'dead' for being a Saturday evening!

Today we went over to Mom and Dad VV's for the Packer vs. Viking Game and dinner! Too bad the Packers couldn't pull off a win!! This week is going to fly by! Then next week, NASHVILLE!!!

BounceU

This morning we went to BounceU for the preschool playdate! Mom VV, Kristin, Lily and Nolan came too! We had a good time and got lots of cute pictures! Here they are;

Our Trick or Treater!

This coming Saturday will be Gavin's 3rd Halloween!! I was looking at pictures this morning of his 1st and 2nd Halloween! He was such a cutie, still is! For his first Halloween he was a Giraffe!His 2nd Halloween he was Donald Duck! And now this year, Gavin is a 'friendly' Bat!My sister came to visit for the day yesterday! It was nice to spend the whole day with her! We did lots of shopping, went out for lunch, and relaxed! We will not be seeing Aunt Ashley on Halloween this year, so we put Gavin's Halloween Costume on so that they could get a picture together! Here they are every Halloween so far! We are very excited for Halloween this year! It is our frist Halloween in our new home and our new neighborhood! I am anxious to 'count' our trick or treaters! Every year since I was little my mom always counted the trick or treaters that came to their door! I think one year it was 100+! I hope we don't get that many here, I don't have enough candy!! Tomorrow we are going to BounceU with Kristin, Lily, Nolan and Mom VV! BounceU is so much fun for kids! Who am I kidding, so much fun for Adults too :) Pictures of that tomorrow :)

Weekend Wrap Up

This weekend went by so fast! It was very nice and relaxing though. My parents came to visit on Friday. It was so nice to see them and have them as our guests!! Gavin got his early Halloween Treats from Nana and Grandpa! We will be staying here for Halloween this year instead of heading to their house, so...they brought his 'treats' to him! He loved them!Saturday morning we took a trip to Costco with my Mom and Dad and then Mom and Dad VV came over to visit for a little while until my parents headed home! Saturday evening, after Gavin went to bed, we had a movie night. We watched Ghosts of Girlfriends Past! I thought it was a pretty cute movie, poor David is always getting suckered into chick flicks!
Today (Sunday) was trick of treating at the ZOO! This was the first time we had taken Gavin to the zoo to trick or treat! Our zoo if a total free zoo here in Madison and it was PACKED! I have never seen so many people trick or treating! It was great for the kids and Gavin loved it! We went with Mom and Dad VV, Kristin, Chris, Lily and Nolan! Here are pictures of the morning trick or treating;

Dinosaur Train

Gavin has always liked dinosaurs, but is new obsession is Dinosaur Train! Have you seen this show? It is a cartoon on PBS Kids and it's adorable! He loves it so much! We are starting to plan his 3rd Birthday Party and he has stressed quite some that he wants a dinosaur Birthday! It is so hard to find cute, sweet, nice dinosaurs! Dinosaur Train is the only friendly and cute dinosaurs we have come upon, and they don’t sell anything in it because it's so new!! I have looked up and down and all around, online and in stores, you name it! If you happen to know of anywhere that sells or makes anything Dinosaur Train, let me know!
It has been raining here for two days straight! How depressing! But, on the up side, my parent's are coming to visit this weekend! Have a wonderful weekend!
