Thursday evening was trick or treat night for Finn around Edinburg.  He proudly represented my Chicago Bears :)  Finnley started his mean football growl, and I think Matt wanted in on the fun!





For some odd reason, Paisley and Finn decided to sit next to each other and smile.  I know this is a very strange occurence!



Paisley is once again laughing out loud watching Finn run all over the place!  She thinks he is soooo funny :)



On Thursday, Paisley had her classroom Halloween pajama party.  I could not find Halloween pajamas anywhere (at least ones that are not too tight on her little chunky legs).  So she picked out her polka got pajamas with a dog on the front :)  Paisley was in charge of bringing treat bags for all the kids in her class.  We put pretzels, goldfish, fruit snacks, yogurt raisins, M&M's, and stickers in each bag :)  When I first got to the party, it was time for art.  All of the kids were given a mini pumpkin and sheet of stickers to decorate.  Most of the kids including Paisley had more fun taking the stickers off after we put them on.  After art, it was snack time.  Paisley was amazed at the plate of food that was put in front of her face.  I am sure you all can tell by the belly pictures below that Paisley does not miss many meals or snacks.  Her treat included a cupcake, cookie, crackers, cheese, and fruit snack with a juice box.  YUM!  After snack, it was play time.  They had a giant blow up bouncy gym set up, and most of the kids got in there and jumped around.  Below are some pictures that I took after this when Paisley was showing me around her classroom.




Paisley could not decide which toy to get.



And then Paisley was showing everyone there exactly what her belly looked like.  She is proud of that thing :) and loves to show it off as she is rubbing it!

Here are a few random pictures of Paisley last weekend.  This is again Pigtail paisley in her Bears jersey eating lunch!  Go Bears!



These are pitcures of Paisley playing outside.  She refused to look at me because that is the cool thing to do now I guess!

Yesterday, we went to the pumpkin patch in Arthur.  We had a lot of fun despite the cold weather and the rather large jacket Paisley was wearing!  Paisley looked amazed at the amount of pumpkins that she could choose from :)





Jill and Brant, our neighbors, decided to pose with us for this picture!



Paisley was playing with Cheryl Morman.



This is Noah's Ark that the pumpkin patch put together.  I thought it was neat so I wanted to take a picture.



Paisley loved to look at all of the animals - chickens, sheep, goats, llamas, ect!



Ride home!  Paisley was a little antsy so Cheryl decided to share her sunglasses.  I could not resist a picture!




Thanks Cheryl, Jill, and Brant for making the trip to Arthur.  We had a lot of fun :)
My crazy child...after she pulled her pony tail our, shoes off, and trying to get her socks off.....

Paisley went to Grandma and Grandpa Hoke's on Saturday night.  She had not seen them for three weeks and everyone was in withdrawals :)  Anyway, Paisley surprised me today with her Bears jersey that Grandma and Grandpa bought for her.  The scary thing is that I already had mine on!  We looked like twins!



Paisley was standing there smiling pretty for Grandma!




We kept trying to get a picture but Paisley was insisting on watching football :)  Now that is my chid!


We also made 175 1/2 half gallon jugs of apple cider today.  Pictures to follow!

Colorado Vacation

This past weekend we travelled via RV to Winter Park, Colorado for a family wedding. There were six adults, a two year old, and one year old in this giant milk truck! We drove on Thursday and Friday, went to the rehearsal dinner Friday night, wedding was Saturday, hung out Sunday, and then drove back Monday and Tuesday. Here are a few pics from our trip.

This is a picture of the giant RV in our driveway. This picture was actually taken when we got home which is why Paisley is not in it. At this point, she is running wild around our yard so excited to be home.

This is the view of the RV from the bedroom.

Adam and his dad drove most of the time!
Paisley and grandma were reading a book on day 1!
Paisley trying to think about what she could get into next!!!!

On Saturday, we went to Winter Park resort. There were tons of little activities and this was a really fun day!
Paisley and Uncle Robbie just hanging out!




Paisley and daddy were playing with some chimes that they found!

Family pic with the mountains in the background! I wish Paisley's hand was not in front of Adam's face!

We took a sky lift up to get a nice view. Paisley decided to fall asleep half way up!




Adam and his brothers at the top of the sky lift!

Paisley after she woke up with her sky lift ticket around her neck.

This is the night of the wedding. The wedding and reception were all at the lodge where we were staying at. Paisley is running around the deck area.

Another family picture but Paisley is not happy because she would rather be running around.


Paisley and Finnley loved to dance. You should have seen their moves! Paisley loved to do what we called the squat and Finnley was a breakdancer!

Here are the bride and groom! Congratulations Jake and Erin!

Paisley and mommy dancing on the deck!




A big family picture on Sunday!

We were getting ready to leave on Monday and it started to snow. This was Colorado's first snow of the season! They were really excited. Us on the other hand were a little nervous because we were driving through the mountains in a giant RV! It was a slow drive but we made it!
Paisley was playing with snow with Aunt Britt! We could not find Paisley's hat so Aunt Britt let Paisley borrow her scarf :)



This was on the drive home! Paisley was watching Baby Einstein On the Farm. She loves that movie!
