Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas!!!

It has been a long time since I posted, so this will be long....again. We had an awesome Halloween! We made homemade caramel apples, went trick or treating and carved pumpkins.

(PS- Melted Chocolate just melts the caramel!!)
Kelleck with his GIGANTIC Pumpkin. And cute little Connor with his little pumpkin. He didnt like getting out all the pumpkin guts!!!
McKay with his big pumpkin! He ended up making a scary jack o lantern with bullet holes and stab wounds. Really where does this kid come from?
Of course Dan and Grammy Cyndi were there too. Funny how I am never in the pictures huh!! Guess that is what happens when you are the official family memory catcher. Here is the one picture of me from that event!
Connor in his horse costume
McKay in his space warrior costume
Kelleck as Pinhead
Thanksgiving was great!! We all went to Grammy Cyndi's and had an awesome dinner with all of the Rudd family and the Gardner family. It was a huge crowd!! Unfortunately I didnt take my camera, so I am hoping Aunt Patti will remember how to upload her pics and I can steal them!!!!
As we traditionally do, Tiff, Nat, Sara and I went out shopping for Black Friday. We got tons of stuff and spent tons of money!!
When I returned home, we hauled up all the Christmas decorations and decorated the house and the tree.

This year we decided to start a new tradition for the boys. Every year Grandma Dedman makes each of us a christmas tree ornament. We also give them a new ornament every Christmas Eve with thier Christmas jammies. So we thought it would be fun to buy them each a fake tree to put up in thier room with all of their special ornaments. Then they can go to sleep every night with Christmas magic in thier minds. Here are our creations.....




Family tree. Hopefully Connor doesnt destroy the train!!!
