Halloween 2019

We made an enormous amount of sugar cookies, this year.  It was nice to share them.

The little boys got some stuffed pumpkin toys at an Easter egg hunt last year.  They have loved them dearly and I’m surprised they haven’t fallen apart.  Blake wanted to carve his pumpkin to look like “Pumpkinie”.  Caleb did the same.

Trick or treating was COLD!  Here’s the one picture I remembered to take.  Caleb is Black Panther, Blake is The Hulk, and Kyler is Han Solo.

We walked around our neighborhood first, warmed up at the house for a minute, and then went to Kyler’s neighborhood.  All was going well until Blake saw the lawn decoration that scared him 2 years ago.  He and I broke from the group and walked to houses on the other side of the street.  Caleb soon got too cold and he joined us.  We tried to push Caleb to last a little longer, but after many pleadings and tears, we called it a night.

Choosing our pumpkins from a house down the street.

Kyle’s 16th Birthday

Kyle turned 16.  He enjoyed opening presents, hanging out with friends, and eating cake and ice cream.  We asked what he would want to do, with his friends, for his party.  He kept saying he didn’t want a party.  He said “no” to going to a movie with friends, watching a movie here, or going somewhere with one friend.  Jeff asked him if he wanted to go golfing and Kyle immediately said, “Yes!”.  Jeff was happy to oblige.
