Halloween 2009

This year we went Trick Or Treating in my parents neighborhood with my parents and with the Baugh's. We ended up running in to Justin and Kristina as well. They were with her parents. We had a fun night. Mike drove us around in the back of his SUV. The kids had lots of fun with their friends.

Trunk or Treat

This year for Halloween The girls and their Grandma Cersey dressed up as Dalmatians and Cruella De Vil. My mom actually made the costumes for them. They turned out so cute. Every year we go to the trunk or treat at church. They always do a costume parade. This year mom and the girls won for the best over all costumes. Mom had them on leashes while they walked around the parade. It was awesome. Mom's makeup looked so good. The kids also had a fun time playing games and trick or treating around the building. For Halloween Andy and I dressed up as Disco people with the Baughs and the Andrades. Andy had a football game tonight so he wasn't able to come.

Costumes to School

This year for Halloweeen Grandma Cersey made the girls Dalmation Dresses. She also made herself a Cruella De Vil Costume. The girls were able to wear them to school. They loved it.

Randy's Pumpkin Patch

We have been going to Randy's Pumpkin Patch since the girls were tiny. They always enjoy going and playing with the bunnies. This year we have been receiving a lot of rain so it was pretty muddy there but that didn't stop the girls from playing.

Carving Pumpkins

Carving Pumpkins is always a fun family activity. Daddy helped Megan and I helped ALexis. Getting the seeds out is not really fun for me so I try to stay away from that part of it. The kids had a great time.

Halloween Party at cersey's

It's time for our annual halloween party at Grandma and Grandpa Cersey's house. The kids look forward to this all year long. Grandma makes this day so fun for the kids and the parents.


Grandma made some really cute things this year to eat.


The kids having fun in the dress up room.


I think the adults might have had more fun in the dress up room, as you can see here.


Having fun in the jumper with Grandpa.


Doing some fun crafts and getting their face painted.




The haunted house this year was bigger and better. Grandma added the office room in as well. Also, most of the adults had a place in it as well. I was dressed as a witch with a mask, and I sat at the entrance of the haunted house when they first came in I was holding an ax and moving it toward them. Grandma was hiding in a box in the office like a jack in the box and jumped out at them. Grandpa was the mad scientist that had them try eating some crazy treats. Albert was dressed with a scary mask and was hiding in a closet with a strobe light and really scared the kids. Justin was the best. As you can see in the pictures he is lying in the bathtub which we covered to look like a coffin. He was in all black so the kids couldn’t tell he was real. There was a treasure box on the top of the toilet for them to get some candy. As they came in the bathroom, Justin dropped a ghost on their heads which he was holding with a fishing wire. Then as they tried to get a treat he would slam closed the box, all the while the kids still didn’t know he was there. Then he would jump out at them. He was for sure the best. As they exited the Haunted House Andy was standing with a leaf blower and turned it on and really scared them because they thought it was all over. We sent the kids in one at a time so they could experience the entire thing. We did have some tears this year.


Next it was time to decorate pumpkins and Homemade Gingerbread houses. The kids always have fun with this part.


Now it was time to have the donut eating contest. This is always so funny.

Megan and Ellie were the winners.


Justin brought it home for the adults.


We decided that we would do one last trick on the kids. Me and Jenn took them all out to the jumper and we had Andy dress up in a scary costume. It was dark out by now so it was hard to see outside. Andy came running down the hill with a real chain saw and it scared to kids so bad I thought they were going to pass out. Of course both my girls were crying and I had to tell them it was just daddy. Needless to say they were mad at him for the next little while. He did look really scary.


To finish off the night we played some limbo.

Apple Picking

We decited we would take the kids to go pick apples with their cousins and grandparents. We drove all the way up to the North Ga Mountains. When we finally got there and paid to go in the orchard we found out that there were basically only baking apples left to pick. So we played in the orchard for a few minutes and took the kids back into the store and let them fill there bags up from the shelf. Not as great as atually picking them off the tree but we wanted apples that would taste good! The kids still had a really fun time. After we were finished we all went and ate lunch together. It was a really fun day.

Pumpkin Patch with The Moore's

This year we decided to go to the pumpkin patch with our neighbor's the Moore's (Kevin, cherie, Casey and Cierra. We went to the place they always go out in Athens. The kids had a fun time. I finally got Casey to let me take his picture even though he was not very excited about it. After the kids ran through the fields we walked over to where they were having PIG races. The kids thought this was hilarious. It was pretty funny to watch and it was stinky! We had a great time.

Grayson Football

Andy and I got the chance to go to a couple Grayson Football games and watch from the side lines. We had a great time. It is very fun to watch a game from the 2 yard line.

Thundercat Double Header

We finally had our last 2 thundercat games. We had a double header tonight. We played Auto N Autio and Hungry Hippos. We really didn't do very good but we always have a fun time playing together with our friends.

Megan Citizen of the Month!

Megan got citizen of the month at school for "Goal Setting". She was relly exited about it. It is always fun to go see the kids get an award and then we get to enjoy a cinnamon roll and some orange Juice with them.
