Halloween

Friday was orange and black day at Jacob's school.  It was also Halloween, so Tim bought some orange and blue (they were out of black) hairspray and did Jacob's hair for school.  He loved having crazy hair!  One of my favorite things about Jacob is that he gets so excited about all the little things in life.  He is full of joy and enthusiasm.  He is such a fun kid!
For some reason, the orange hairspray looked a bit pink...but Jacob didn't care.  Micah thought brother's hair was funny!
All dressed up in costume.  Jacob was a skeleton pirate and Micah was a doggie.  This was not Micah's original costume.  He was supposed to be Buzz Lightyear, but refused to wear his costume.  I think he might have been afraid of it.  Finally I pulled out all of the costumes we have from previous Halloweens and he reluctantly settled on Jacob's old doggie costume. Micah sure has a mind of his own.  
Our church put on a Great Pumpkin Festival and the boys got to play lots of carnival games and watched "The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown"  on a big screen.  They had a blast.
Micah and Kyri -two cute little puppy dogs.  "Woof ... Woof"
Tim and I even dressed up.  A butterfly fairy and a monk - nice!
All in all, a good day.  Tim's favorite part of the day...he and a bunch of people went to Chipotle at 9:58pm and put foil on themselves (like a burrito) to get free burritos or bowls.  He was so excited about his free meal...we are totally addicted to Chipotle!!!

4th of July Fun



I am a little behind on my blogs and I had to include 4th of July.  We had such a nice day.  We went to the Lincoln parade in the morning, which is one my favorite things on this holiday.  As I sit on the side of the road watching the parade go by and look at all of the kids along the sidewalk waving their little American flags, I feel like I am in a movie.  I  love our little town!  In the afternoon we went to Folsom to Torrey and Tessie's house (Tim's brother and sister-in-law).  Jacob was so excited to play with his cousin Calvin.  Tim's parents were there, my mom was there, and Tessie's parents were there.  The boys went swimming and played Wii.  We all ate dinner and then waited for it to get dark.  At about 9pm we made our way outside and lit off a ton of fireworks.  It was so fun and such a relaxing day.
