Pumpkin Craving Results


Kenneth and RJ's pumpkin to the left, was a devilish character and Micah, Carlos and I had the clown. Once you saw the 'carvers' with their pumpkins it seems like they were almost self portraits.

Good job boys!

Halloween 2008 Syracuse, Utah


Here is the size 2T, Incredible Hulk! Poor little guy the mask was bigger than his head, but I was able to get on photo of him wearing his costume. I just think he is so stinking cute with those hazel eyes!

He was so cute walking around going "Arrrrgggghhhhhh!"


Pretty Scary huh? As you can see Carlos was the creature from the Scream movies. It was a pretty cool costume, he had a tube filled with what appeared to be blood and a pump that make it come flowing down his masks.



And here is the pretty pretty princess, Snow White Mia.

Carving Pumpkins for Halloween

Here is another great idea by yours truly! I thought it would be a great idea the night before Halloween to let the boys crave two of the four pumpkins we got. I also thought it was a great idea to use one of those handy tandy booklets that have pictures to trace, you know the ones that come with a knife that can barely cut the pumkpin without bending in half!

Needless to say after five minutes I was done so I turned over the pumpkin Carols and I were working on to Micah to finish. Kenneth was working on one for him and RJ. As you can see how much fun the boys were having. RJ was craving the lid to my pumpkin and I had given Carlos the task to pull out the seeds to make pumpkin seeds.

Oh joy to another one of my bright ideas!

Mia's 1st Birthday

Mia celebrated her first birthday, it was a simple celebration with Mom, Dad, brothers, Uncle Micah and Aunt Natonja.

Since it was not only her first birthday, but the first birthday celebration I was able to attend I went a little over board. Everything was pink that day, pink napkins, pink plates, pink cups, pink balloons, pink streamers . . . it was a pink day! Uncle Micah and the boys put up all the streamers while I blew up the balloons.

Afterwards, we took the boys to do some birthday shopping for Mia. All I have to say is, What do you buy for a little girl who is one years old? While the boys picked out the toys I headed over to the clothes. :)

Once again the day was simple yet special. We barbecued some hamburgers and had cupcakes for dessert.

Kids will be Kids, Right?


Just before we left on the Annual Syracuse City Pumpkin Walk, where I believe the Stagge Family was holding up the line admiring each pumpkin, Thanks Parker :)

The boys decided, Carlos and RJ that was that it was be a good idea to get out some of the excitement and before we knew it they turned on Uncle Micah. As you can see Micah was beat up by both the boys, and received a wet willie from RJ!

GO RJ!!

October Outings . . .


Micah and I took the boys, Carlos and RJ over to the Pumpkin Farm just down the road from us.

We were able to go play over in the pumpkin field where they had super large slides, paintballing, and a kids maze.

They had several slides that were made out of hay bales. Then we went on a hay wagon ride in search of the BIGGEST and the ROUNDEST pumpkin we each could find.

Here's the scope . . . .

For those of you that don't already know my brother, Kenneth, his wife, Megan and their three kids Carlos (6), RJ (2) and Mia (1) moved in with Micah and I.

They decided to move to Utah in search of a better place to raise their kids! And luckily for me, I live in Utah and I get the joys of seeing my nephews and niece daily . . . so for the time being this blog will be all about them!
