October 2008

October was a very busy month. We had lots of doctor appointments and so much happening. Dylan turned 4 on the 15th and I turned 31 on the 30th. We had lots of fun painting pumpkins, tie dying shirts, and making lots of fall crafts. We ended the month with a night of trick or treating as we took out our Ninja (Garrett), Batman then Buzz (Dylan), our fairy (Sydney), tinkerbell (Macy) and an enchanted princess (Sami). I helped out at the school with a Monsters Inc. scarecrow and with halloween crafts. Then to end the month and begin our new month we had a Birthday Carnival for Dylan, Garrett and Sami. It was a huge success. With their birthdays all being within a 7 week time frame and all 3 of them wanting a carnival, we decided to do one big party. It was so much fun. I made Dylan an Incredible's cake and Garrett a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cake and Sami had a High School Musical cake. We had lots of games and prizes and food, and only pulled it off with the help of some terrific friends and family members.
