We had such a great time on Halloween. The night before, we carved our pumpkins from the pumpkin patch, what fun! Grayson's pumpkin was of 'Perry The Platypus' and Rogan's was a mummy!! Scary! We always enjoy our pumpkin carving as we dance and act silly to our spooky CD. My silly boys love to show off thier moves when ever an opportunity arrives. Grandpa and Grandma came over on Halloween to see the boys in their costumes and get some pictures along with the fun Halloween gifts they always bring the boys! They also handed out candy for us while we were out, which was nice because we now have lots of little one's around our neighborhood!
Grayson was dressed as a Ninja Turtle and Rogan was a Red Dragon as you can see from the photos. Everyone thought they were so cute. Grayson's friend Seth went with us also along with his father. Seth is the Power Ranger in the photo. The boys got so much candy we had to dump it out before we headed to the other side of our neighbor hood. Now that's a lot of candy. Our neighborhood always looks so fun and festive during Halloween. They boys got to visit for the first time, our wonderful neighbors behind us who are usually in Texas this time of the year spending the cold weather seasons in the warm sun. It was nice to get to see Lou and Christine this year but now they are off and on their way south for the next 5 months. One of our other neighbors was dressed up as a clown as seen from the photo, they also are retirees from Texas, very nice people!
Last week I helped out in Grayson's class and boy was that an adventure! We made silly putty with kindergartners!!! It was an experiment gone horribly wrong! Let me just say the silly putty did not set up and it was literally dripping from their hands onto the tables and their laps! What an adventure this had become and a gigantic mess to say the least. I am always up for fun crafts and we are always doing them here at The Mathias house but this was a whole other what I would call 'Mad Scientist' experiment out of control. Well, I made it through the morning not to mention I had a migraine the night before that I probably should have gone to ER for a shot to relieve the pain it was so intense, so it was a whirl wind of a day in Grayson's class but also a good laugh! I seem to have lots of those lately.
Counting down turkey day now! We are going to my parents and Iam making home made pumpkin pies from scratch...Yummy!!! Can't wait and we will also be going to the tree farm to pick out our Christmas tree! So much fun ahead, just can't wait for the Christmas Season!!! Our elf Neigel will be returning for the season next week too. He watches over the boys during the season and makes his nightly visits to the North Pole to report to the big man himself, Santa!!! I have already started playing my 'Peanuts/ Charlie Brown Christmas' CD. It is one of my many favorites! Gobble, Gobble!!! Until you wobble!!! Happy Thanksgiving!
