A very long Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone!!  Today is "suppose" to be the devil's holiday, so in celebration of him we attended an area wide worship service where over 1,200 people were worshipping JESUS!!!!  I know you loved it Satan!!!! :)  We got up (after getting to bed around 2 am last night) and was out the door by 8 am to catch the MAX (our public transportation) to go downtown to the Portland Convention Center.  We had church from 9:30-12pm and the speaker, Brian Simmons, was EXCELLENT!!! 
After church we went to lunch downtown with some friends......6 adults and 6 kids can get REALLY chaotic at a restaurant....that poor waitress!!!  We finally made it home around 3pm for a quick nap.... 
Josh NOT impressed with the MAX or my picture taking!!!
Garrett doesn't mind though!!
...neither does Haylee
"Look at me Mom"
Can we go eat already!
Waiting for our table...."WE'RE HUNGRY!!!"
I'm not hungry anymore!!!

On our way home on the MAX

....after nap time we got up and went to our church's 1st Annual Trunk or Treat!!!  It was a GREAT success!!!
The Wizard of Oz Family!!!

We then had church and then went out trick or treating.....A MISTAKE!!!  TOTAL meltdowns!!!  We were out for about 30 mins and then went home WENT TO BED!!!  It was overall a great day!!! 
Haylee was a little pooped!!!!  She just stopped and sat down while the other kids went up to the door!!!  "I'll wait right here guys...I have enough candy!!"

Here are some of our October Favorites!!
Aren't those AMAZING!!!  Josh did them FREE HAND!!!!  I didn't know I was married to such an artist!!!

That's right, LITTLE PEOPLE, BIG WORLD.....a big world about 10 miles away from us!!!  Every fall season The Roloff's open their farm to the public for their pumpkin patch.  We didn't get a chance to go last year, but this year it was a must....we even saw a couple of them....STAR STRUCK!!!!  Garrett even knew who they were....

Garrett: Mom there are the people that are on the computer
Erica: What??
Garrett: You know the grown ups that are not big like you, but big like me.

Matt and Amy Roloff....we don't know the little girl with Amy, we just didn't want to stand in the REALLY long line to get our picture with her.

More pictures from the farm...


Today Garrett had a Halloween Party at his preschool!!  We are the Wizard of Oz family!!  Sunday we'll have our family pictures....today the kids were the only ones dressed up.  The CUTEST little lion and tinman you've EVER seen!!
CANDY, CANDY, and MORE CANDY!!!

PUMPKINS

Garrett has been OBSESSED with pumpkins this month...I wonder why???
This week Josh decided to carve our pumpkin that we got at the pumpkin patch!!  GREAT job huh???  Along with pumpkins Garrett is also in love with Spiderman so of course Garrett LOVED this!!!

Not excited AT ALL!!!

Not exactly sure what we're doing but this sounds fun!!!


Do you think Haylee would like pumpkin yuck on her head??
What a good big brother.....and that's pumpkin ice cream!!
We went to a October Festival last weekend.  They had a ferris wheel, pony rides, petting zoo, hay bail maze, and TONS of PUMPKINS!!
