Fall Catch Up

I know, I know we're a bit behind. But I'll do my best to catch everyone up...

First Halloween!
We love Halloween! My grandma always has a big party and she makes tons of different homemade soups and bread (she is an awesome cook!) and all the kids dress up and go trick-or-treating. This year we were just going to dress Cyrus up in some biker clothes, but he learned to talk like a monster so I had to make him a monster costume. A little insane starting a costume 4 days before Halloween when you have as much time as I have, but he was so cute as a wild thing! And he was nice and warm being in his costume all night :) He growled and talked like a monster all night! So cute!

We have the best leaves at our house in the fall. Not so fun to rake up and get rid of, but all the kids love them! This year all the neighbor kids came to help me rake/play and had a ball! Thanks guys!

Thanksgiving...always fun, we get to have lunch with my family and dinner with Trav's which is so much better than having on and off years. I made rolls and pies, the rolls were awesome, but I think I'm giving up on pies. Not my thing. Cyrus loved it because my family completely spoils him. He played with my cousin Jodi all day, who is one of his favorites, and she let him have whatever he wanted. Fun for him, not so much for me since all he wanted was pickles. Yep, pickles. I think he ate about 20 of the small uncut dill pickles. Nothing else, just pickles. He stunk like pickles for 2 days! Yikes!

Then at the Hobbs he got to help grandma snap the beans. He spent almost an hour saying "snap, snap." Luckily grandma bought enough beans he could ruin a few.
