Halloween

Marilyn Monroe had a sexy surfer dude husband and three "scary" spider man boys :-)
Everyone thought Kevin was Owen Wilson. Maybe we should have just gone along with that idea.
These costumes were very well used this year. I think they've worn them everyday for the past month. Usually all the boys in the neighborhood had their costumes on and all of them would be out riding their bikes. I've already had to do some sewing repairs, and as you can see in this picture, Nathan needs a little seam fixed in the middle section.
Jackson is so eager to be like his brothers. I know its only months away before he's wrestling on the floor with his brothers so I need to enjoy and soak up these baby stages as much as possible.
All ready for trick or treaters!!!
Happy Halloween

Disneyland cont.

Its a small world after all. How is it that this ride can be so annoying and so fun at the same time. I still have the theme song running in my mind constantly.
Carson practically hyperventilated when he saw all the suckers. It was like a dream come true licking a huge, sticky, very messy sucker.

This was the lady bug ride that spins you around in circles so fast, that one should not have a full belly before riding it.


Disneyland

It took us long enough, but we finally made it to Disneyland. We traveled with Kevin's parents and sister and her family and had a ball. The boys are at the perfect age where all the characters are pretty cool and Nathan barely made the height cut off of 40 inches. We spent three days at both Disneyland and California adventure and rode all the little kid rides you could possibly think of. Some of them more than once like Buzz light year and Monster's Inc. Since the boys did so well on those we thought we would try out Space Mountain....BIG mistake. Although they survived the ride, Carson and Nathan never want to ride it again. We'll see about that :-)
The whole time Carson has told me that he doesn't want to meet Mickey mouse and all the characters, just go to their house and play and ride the rides. But they warmed up pretty good to Mr. Incredible and even Mickey himself.
We got plenty of merry-go rides in!
Our favorite part at California adventure was the Bugs life park. It had so many fun things to do for little kids. We saw a 3-D movie about bugs life, and rode the Bugs bumper cars and then ofcourse they had to find the shooting water. The first day they got their clothes and shoes soaking wet so I thought I had it all figured out on day two when I brought along the pull-ups...that was until one of the workers told me they must have on shoes and a shirt....oh well.
