Well...Fall has officially arrived. The spicy cinnamon nutmeg smells are in the air.
The cooler weather has finally arrived. And the twins celebrated their first Halloween ever!
Kenny and Amanda came over earlier in the week and we had a great dinner.
Little Ms. Crafty Amanda made the cutest mummy cans with candy and goodies
for the babies in each one. Each can represented someone in Ross family.
SO CUTE!!!!
It made a great Fall decoration on top of our TV. Thank you Amanda!!
Kenny and Amanda brought dessert.
CUPCAKES...YUMMMM! but it got late and they didn't
get a chance to enjoy any. But have to fear...
ZACKMAN IS HERE!!! Not one cupcake went uneaten!
Then it was off to the pumpkin patch. We told Zack all the way there
that when we got there he could pick out what ever pumpkin he wanted.
So when we got to the pumpkin patch he was so excited.
We walked around for a while but then he stopped and reached down
to pick up one of the biggest pumpkins there LOL.
While we were there Zack kept jumping up on the hay bales.
He had soooo much fun!!!
He kept yelling " EMMA EMMA" so we let Matt and Emma join him.
Even though it doesn't seem like he wanted Matt too, he really did.
You see....both babies are Emma to him. LOL Poor Matt.
I kept telling Emma to " Smile "! So Zack was posing for the camera
and trying to tickle Emma at the same time to get her to smile.
When we got ready to leave the pumpkin patch, Zack turned around and ran up
to this little pumpkin. He picked it up and put it in the wagon.
We told him that we were only going to get one pumpkin and to put it back.
He slowing walked up, set it back down, dropped his bottom lip, looked at
me with watery eyes and said " BYE-BYE PUMPKIN".
So as you can all guess I'm sure, YES....we bought 2 pumpkins that night! LOL
The next day was carving day! Zack was so excited.
We didn't realize how big the pumpkin was that Zack
picked out until he sat down on the table with it!
None of the kids had ever seen the inside of a pumpkin it was so funny
to watch them discover what it felt like.
Zack enjoyed smearing the goop all over himself. WEIRD KID!! LOL
Matt wasn't to sure about it. He looked at me like
"your crazy mommy if you expect me to stick my hand inside there" LOL
However Emma was very curious about the inside of the pumpkin
Not only did she want to stick her hand in and feel it.....
but she also wanted to get a closer look!!!!!
Zack did such a good job helping mommy cut the pumpkins.
When it was his little pumpkins turn I asked him "How do you want your pumpkins
face to look, happy or scary?" He said "Happy".
So we cut out the eyes and nose and smiley face.
I asked him "how many teeth does your pumpkin have?" And he said "ONE!!"
I thought we were done. So I asked Zack do you like your pumpkin?
And he looked at me and pointed to the side of the pumpkin and said
" Mommy...ears!" So I cut out 2 ears...one on each side.
Then I asked him..."Are you happy with your pumpkin now?
And he pointed to the pumpkins eye and said "crying mommy".
I said... "You want your pumpkin to cry?"
And he laughed and said "YES!" So we cut a little tear drop on the pumpkin.
After we popped the piece out of the pumpkin to make the teardrop
Zack threw his hands in the air and yelled "ALLLLLLL DONE"
As you can see....this was a very tiring job for Zack
and he was ready for his nap LOL!
Over all I think they turned out really good
for our first Pumpkin carving Halloween!!
Then finally....HALLOWEEN WAS HERE!!!!!
Time to dress up and go trick-or-treating! Zack was SUPERMAN!!!
He loved flying around with his cape on. We put black hairspray in his hair.
He looked so funny with black hair!!! LOL
And then my sweet babies were a beautiful little angel
and a handsome little devil!!
Here's my sweet baby angel EMMA...
" HEHEHEHE...MOMMY AND DADDY JUST THINK I'M AN ANGEL....
I'M REALLY THE DEVIL IN DISGUISE!!!"
And my handsome little devil MATT....
" ITS MY HALO NOW....HEHEHEHE"
Trevor always did have an angel on one shoulder and the devil on the other!
Now we can get the visual of that LOL
We went to Nana's house to trick-or-treat around her Neighborhood!
OH MY GOD...THE CANDY!!
So much for me starting my diet! LOL We had a great time...
"When grandma says " look at the camera and smile!" She means it!! LOL
It looks like torture but you should have heard Zack laughing!! TOO FUNNY!!!
After all the trick-or-treating was over we went to Aunt Barbs house.
By this time everybody was getting tired and cranking.
Aunt Barb asked to get a picture of all the kids together
As you can see this didn't go so well.....LOL
Emma looks at here bothers and thinks....
" OK you two, chill out!!! its just a picture!! GEESH!!!"
Aunt Barb did finally get a picture with her and the twins
Over all, it was a very successful Halloween. THANK GOD we don't have
to do that again for another year!!!
The next day the kids were playing in the stuffed animal box.
I told Trevor " Instead of -FIND WALDO-....
its find Zackery, Matthew and Emma" LOL
HAPPY FALL EVERYONE!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!
THE ROSS FAMILY
