Tape Roads... Lots of fun!

Today I made Cameron a little city on the floor using painters tape! I got the idea from Pinterest and knew he would love it... and he does! We made a few parking lots, an airport, a construction site, a dump and a gas station. Im pretty sure this is pure heaven for him. Hopefully Connor wont rip it up as soon as he gets up!
 This is our little gas station... pumps out of tape lol
Here he is landing an airplane on the runway at the airport... and you can see the planes and helicopters parked too.
 We even put a parking lot up on the couch!

Halloween!!

This year my boys were both so excited for Trick or Treating! Cameron really understood what he was going to get to do since he remembered from last year and Connor just understood that whatever it was we were going to do would mean he got candy lol. Cameron wanted to be an astronaut (thank goodness it was a costume this year I could find! Unlike the garbage man last year!) And Connor was a monkey because he is my little monkey, always climbing on everything! This was the best photo I could get of the both of them together, either one wasnt looking at me or the woudnt stand close enough to eachother or one was running away lol.
 Once Connor got a peice of candy in his bucket he wanted to eat it... the first couple candies dissapeared quickly! We had to convince him to leave it in there!
 We had just left when I took this photo and already Connor had a "candy face."
 This is Cameron and his buddy Jackson from across the street :) We went with them this year, so glad we found some friends to go with!
 Connor got tired of walking and decided being pushed in a stroller while eating his candy was a better alternative =P


Pumpkin Carving 2011

I had to forego the Pumpkin Patch post because it was not a pleseant experience this year... A couple days before my camera broke and I had to send it off to Nikon for repair :( So I borrowed a point and shoot from my aunt for the pumpkin patch and of course I can work a fancy DSLR but for some reason I couldnt get the point and shoot to take decent photos! And then, we went to go to a pumpkin patch I had found and we realized once we were there (by now it was already 6:15pm) that they charged admission plus the price of your pumpkins. So we set off to find another one that we didnt have to pay admissions for. By the time we got to one it was already dark and freezing :( So I was kinda grumpy since I couldnt get any good pictures, it was cold and dark, we couldnt barely see to find our pumpkins etc...

So... on to the carving!
 Connor decided to taste his pumpkin while he was cleaning it out... he realized very very quickly it didnt taste very good!
 This picture is for Bret... he thought it was so funny to do this in the background lol
 We cant do anything without power tools in this house!! Which of course Cameron doesnt mind, it made him very happy!
