A preschool in Castle Rock holds their annual Fall Festival which we attended last year and had a blast. So we decided to go again. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate for it so everything was moved inside. Not quite as much fun, but I think overall the kids had a good time. (My mother-in-law was visiting that week too so if nothing else she and I had a good time picking out what goodies to buy....not so good for the Weight Watchers diet I'm on.) Oh ya, and Rick and I actually got to go out to dinner too! A nice bonus...and without any kids!
Aidan getting his face painted like Batman and Kellen watching in anticipation. (Kellen has to be just like his big brother...ain't that cute?)
See what I mean? Kellen always asks, "What Aidan gonna have or do?"
Like brother and brother. Too bad Curren is too young, he'd look just as cute.
Our neighbors held a Halloween bucket decorating party which we also attended. All the neighborhood kids (those living on our cul-de-sac) dressed up and attended. It was a lot of fun and the kids had a blast seeing what each other wore and decorating their buckets. Of course our neighbor's went ABOVE and BEYOND...buying all the buckets, decorations, pizza, treats. (Lynnea, our neighbor is attending a cake decorating class and decorated her cupcakes and cakes herself. Amazing.)
For all you Star Wars fans, we've got a Darth Vader and Jango Fett, then Curen is the little pumpkin. (In case you couldn't tell:)
Little Curren wearing the same costume Aidan wore when he was 3 mos. old.
Darth Vader, Jango Fett, Bumblebee Transformer and Speed Racer
Didn't I tell you our neighbor is Minnie Mouse?
Wow! Don't those look awesome? They were a big hit with the kids...black mouths, teeth and all. And to top it off? The cake part was orange...talk about festive.
The finished product. Now they are ready for some serious trick-or-treating. I can't even begin to imagine how many bags of candy I need to buy this year. Can anyone say kids? And lots of them in our neighborhood.
The 3 brothers, my babies!

I love seeing the pictures of your boys they are so cute. It sounds like you live in an incredible neighborhood. Good times!
That was fabulous! Love the Star Wars costumes. I don't think I have to tell you that those would be a huge hit in my house!
I can't tell you how much joy I got from reading this post Jyll. The life you are living is a testament to how hard you work for your beautiful family.
The story about how Kellen copies Aidan totally reminds me of Shandra and me growing up - but it drove me nuts! Hopefully Aidan is much more tolerant of his little brother than I was of my sister.
sounds like such fun. you sure hit the jackpot in neighbors huh!?!?!
the boys are getting huge!!!
