HappY HaLLoWeeN!!!

Hope you all had a Happy Day! We sure did. We even got a little extra "Love" having Sadie join us for dinner and trick or treating!
Kin's pre trick or treating nap! :) She is seriously so cute. My boys were both done with binkis by 6 months...looks like I'm already ruining the trend. When you're pretty sure it's your last...all these habits really are so hard to break! :( I don't want her to grow up...
Cute trick or treaters! and SAdie! OW OW! haha
Miss Kinlee didn't last long...we'll see if she sleeps at all tonight now! haha
The BOYZ! Some of our new neighbors did this amazing Haunted House!!! She said it took them over a month to put it together! It was awesome. For some reason my boys loved it, but I'm hoping they don't have nightmares....
Miss SAdie and me! She is one of my best friends too, glad I've found that in my sis in law! Love ya girlie :)
The GIRLZ...and Batman! :)
Most of their candy! Standard pic! Peyt even asked for it this year! :)
and our Halloween fun has come to an end with another traditional porch/pumpkin picture! This year was definately hard for some reason...made me really miss our old neighborhood and friends :( Wish that sometimes you could just all move together everywhere you go! You know who you are!!! :)
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

HaPPy PRE-Halloween FUN!

Yea! LOVE this time of year. So much fun to go along with it!
Our friends invited us over one afternoon to frost cookies! YUM! Thanks Nachelle :) Glad you guys moved here, we love it!
Drew got this back from school. His little spotlight from his Birthday!
Kinlee LOVES standing up!!!
and she loves when Grandpa pays attention to her too.
Happy BIRTHDAY Dad!!! Can't believe we were arguing with Peyt over how old you REALLY are! He was right! Love ya and hope you had a great day!
Halloween Party day at school!!! ...uh too bad you can't really see the costumes! haha Oh well!
Then Robin came to play with Batman! SO CUTE! We even made a batcave downstairs they loved!
Halloween party at Grandpa Rich's! So much fun, yummy food and cute kids!
The two that missed the pic :)
then onto carving pumpkins!
Awesome!
The kids loved helping!
And for Grandma Debbies PaRtY!!! Tys surprises me yet again! haha He thought of his own costume and it was hilarious! A little scary, but hey he was trying to not be a Halloween grump. Sooo funny! I decided to rumage through my old clothes and found my sweet gear! SEE! Maybe I DID wear it again one day~ haha and thanks to them, we also had an outfit for tys. Drew has been Batman the past three FULL days and Peyt is so easy going :) Kinlee is a trooper to put on hers for pics.
And all those who weren't TOO COOL to dress up! Love it! Right after the pic, Tys took me and Kinlee home cause she all the sudden got a fever :( Poor girl! Guess we have had 5 too many late nights! Tomorrow won't help. haha
Grandma and Grandpa Tait missed the pic, so I thought I'd snap one of them and their company on the couch!
Happy Halloween EVE to you! Hope you are having fun so far too!!!!!

UEA UEA UEA!!!

We had a fun little break! Dad was gone for most of it hunting, but he had fun too!
Grandma Debbie had the cousins sleepover for a "P" party! Peyt and Drew took Peanut butter cups and Pink Lemonade with their Pj's and Pillows to go along with it! In the morning they had pumpkin pizzas! yum!

Kinlee and her cousin Max! they don't look too much different in size in this pic, but they are! :)
These boys were worn right out from their sleepover! I couldn't even get them to budge while "watching" their movie! :)
then on Friday Tys went on his traditional hunt with his Grandpa dad and brother...So the kiddos got a pic before he headed out.
as did we :) ha ha
We were watching a couple of kids friday morning so I told the boys they could invite one more friend each over and we would have a little Halloween party. They chose their friends, but then of course Drew wouldn't let the party go on without Hadlee, so he got a bonus friend. haha AND look how cute Kinlee is in the pic too!
We got a little girl time while the boys played at their friends house on Saturday for HOURS!!! It was fun. We did a little shopping and took a nap. :) THanks Shaun and Heather!
We had a movie night watching Rio! It was cute.
and...I thought this would be a quick project...
But I was wrong. Before I knew it, it was 1 AM! haha Oh well, it's fun to spice things up eh?
She is getting SOOO big! :(
Drew always finds the gals to play with somehow! haha
Tonight we had the boys write a letter or draw pics to their Uncle Taylor on his mission. I can't believe how good both boys did! Drew wrote sooo good!!! AND that's Peyt's chinese name on the bottom right!
Yea for a fun break and good quality time with the kiddos! Glad to have my hubby back! :) We missed him, and no, he did not get a deer :)

in 2 years...when we'll meet again!

AHHH! I can't believe my cute brother in law is old enough to serve a mission!!! It seems like he should still be 10 years old. I couldn't be more excited for him and the people in New Jersey! We are going to miss him so much, but we know he is so ready to go and going to be amazing! We love you Taylor! Can't wait for what's in store for these next two coming years! We will miss you! :(
At least he smiled for this pic :)
The whole family! Together for the last time for 2 YEARS!!!
One of the best Uncles! She will be completely different and the most changed to him when he comes home :(
This little dude will probably be way too big for Kinlee's carseat and will be baptized while Tay is gone...
and this little dude will turn 6 and be in Kindergarten!!!
She wasn't quite sure what to think of this hat...
We went back to Tay's house to hang out on Sunday night and told him to choose anything he wanted for us to do...yep, he chose Scrabble! haha and we threw in Dumb and Dumber to send him out on...haha He hadn't ever seen it before!
Love you Tay!
Tonight Taylor officially became an Elder! Yes, Drew had his nice clothes on underneath batman, but he wasn't about to take off his hero-ness :)
Okay Tay, we wish you all the best of luck and know you are SO excited to go and know you were so sick of my hugs by 10 pm :) But we can't tell you enough how much we love you and how much we will miss you BUT we also know it's right where you should be! LOVE YOU TAY BUD! :) Go enjoy your "Best Two Years!"

We got the phone call saying that Grandpa Pickett had taken a turn for the worse...I didn't want to regret not going to see him. So Tys brought my sister home from church so she could come see him too and we hurried down to see my Grandpa. He looked so great, but said that's not what the Dr's were telling him. He IS 91. His heart is failing...but we still have him here today. Love him so much and it was awesome to hear his experiences and be so touched by him.
