Halloween Fun!

Miles and Sydnee had a few chances to get dressed up for Halloween this year. There was the Fall Festival at the church and a party at Climax school. Miles went trick or treating with Papa and Sydnee stayed to help Nana hand out candy on Halloween night.

Playing games at the church.

Sydnee's first "owie"!

Even Sydnee played a few games with a little help from her friend, Lauryn.

Miles showing them how it's done!

He played all sorts of games...

Even Auntie Emy was lucky enough to make it with!

Sydnee enjoying some cake!

Miles was poking out the pattern while we carved pumpkins.

Trick or Treat!

He got to drive the golf cart that Papa and him drove around the big city of Buxton!

Sydnee still not quite walking by herself...stubborn little thing!

She even got to have some candy!

All done....had so much fun and look at all that candy!

Nana had to show him how to eat the pixie stix candy!

Some time with cousins in Minneapolis

We went to stay with Kelly, Kyle, Kadence, and Kai for awhile and we were able to do all sorts of fun things while we were there. We went to a pumpkin patch with a corn pit, cows, goats, and all sorts of fun things. We also went to the Mall of America and went on some fun rides. Nana Newcomb came for the weekend and we went to visit some family in Wisconsin. While we were there we went to an apple orchard and got to pick some fresh apples.

Sydnee wasn't so sure what to think about all the corn!

Miles loved playing in it, especially with all the trucks they had there.

Went for a little ride to go pick out some pumpkins.

Loved seeing all the cows!

Miles and Kadence were holding hands and jumping into the corn pit.

This is at the Mall of America, it was Toddler Tuesday so they had all sorts of fun activities and gifts for the kids.

At first this was the only ride we could get them to go on!

Sydnee and Kai relaxing at the resteraunt where we ate.

We found Woody at LegoLand!

And the Backyardigans were there too!

Going for a ride on the merry-go-round.

Such good helpers!...making some brownies.

Kristi came to visit and was showing Miles how to cut a face out of paper.

Enjoying some fresh apples at the orchard.

Having fun!

Not so easy to get a good photo of all 4 at the same time!

Go Vikings!

Buxton Visits.....

We went to visit Grandpa Sid and Rhoda with Momma's cousin Kristi and her husband Mike. We will get to visit them alot more now that we are going to be staying so close, fun!

Miles wasn't so sure about what Grandpa Sid had to say...

Sydnee told him what she thought about it though!

And of course gave plenty of kisses!

Trying to share her shoes with Rhoda...

Getting closer to walking, still need a little help. Thanks Kristi!

Here We Are....

Here are some photos from the past month or so. The first few were taken in Altus before we left. Most are from up north. Sydnee still isn't walking by herself quite yet but is getting closer everyday. She "talks" and babbles quite a bit and even says "uh oh" when she drops something and has learned to say "nice" since she has heard to "be nice" so many times already! Miles is getting to be a very big boy but has lost most of his baby fat now. He is very good at telling stories and talks a lot when he's comfortable but is rather shy at first. He can count and say his ABC's when he wants to anyway. He still loves music and will even sing some songs by himself but again when he wants to. He is a good big brother but we do have to remind him to be gentle and not to tackle his baby sister....Sydnee is going to be one tough girl!
