The family went to the famous Pumkin Walk. It was really fun. I think my kids really enjoyed it this year. I didn't get any pictures of the actual pumkins because, there were so many people and I couldn't get a shot without someones head in the way.
The kids loved the end of the pumkin walk where they could put their heads in the bodies of there favorite characters.

Some of my family at the Pumkin Walk. The couple we could get to hold still.

Sunday afternoon we went to my moms house and made Halloween cookies. My mother is so patient and loves to cook with the grandkids. She has alot of grandkids (8) but, she makes every single one of them feel importent.
Kenzie & Hunter were up first and they helped Grandma make the batter. They thought this was awesome!

My little Kenzie girl cutting out her cookies. As you can see I have to strip her right down to the undies.

The older boys getting their turn to make their cookies. Kason, Hayden & Colton

The cookies pre oven.

We are all here. Ben & I, Holly & Rusty, Michelle & Shawn and Tiffany

Michelle & Holly got in on the fun making their own cookies. Who said that the big kids can't have fun too?

Tiffany & Dylan checking on the cookies. Are they done yet?

And of course you have to have the FROSTING. This was the best part for the kids, I think beacause they could get messy.

Our finished product.

My Aunt Nicole works for S&S sport and sometimes when they are testing new rides they need certain age groups to ride the ride. Nicole called yeaterday to see if Kason was intrested in trying out a new ride. They needed some kids from 5-7 years of age. Of course Kason was up for the excitment. Nicole did warn me that the ride was no complete and fully put together. It was totally safe, it was just a portion of the ride. When we got there I was informed that Kason had to ride a crane to the top of the roller coaster where then he would be loaded into the seat of the ride. I wasen't to scared because Stan (the owner) had two of his own grandchilden on the ride with Kason. TheY video taped the ride and are going to post it on you tube. Kason Loved the ride and it was really a neat ride to watch.

Aunt Nicole putting Kason in a harnest. Once they get up to the roller coaster they attach a seatbelt through the harnest and this is how they stay safe for right now.

The riders had to take a ride in the crane to get to the roller coaster. It was a little scary for mom to watch but, they were very safe.

Taking the crane ride to the top of the roller coaster.

Here is Kason loaded in the ride. There is two sides to the ride and they loaded both sides. They had two adults and two childen in each side for a total of 8 riders.

Here is the ride in action. It looks like a fun ride and it is suppose to be family friendly.

Funny Girl!

I am not usually one to write all the funny things my kids say because that would be a post everyday but, little Kenzie said the most hilarious thing yeaterday.
We were driving in the car yeaterday morning to get my morning drink from Sinclair and Kenzie was holding a nickel. She ended up dropping the nickel and she wanted well, demanded another one. I gave her another nickle and told her that this was last one I had and if she dropped it or lost it there was no more. She took the nickle from my hand and said as serious as can be "I don't see how that is my problem!" What??? Where is she getting this, it's like a little two year in a teenage body. HELP ME!!!

Computer FIXED!!

I am happy to say that my computer is up and running, running slowly but never the less running! This is just in time to post a few pictures of my recent trip to Vegas. Ben had a Boat convention in Vegas and I decided to tag along and bring my sister and brother in-law Holly & Rusty. This was there first real vacation and Hollys very first time away from Easten. We went for 4 days we drove and left on Wed. morning and got back home Saturday afternoon. This was plenty of time in Vegas. I used to love Vegas, Everything about Vegas the Casinos, the smokey atmosphere, the noise of the coins dropping in the machines but, this time all I could see was filth. This place is so dirty. Everywhere you go millions of people touch the doors, touching the poker chips, touching the Bathrooms. I was very lost in Vegas without my bottle of hand sanitizer.
We had a Great time but come saturday I was ready to head home and see my Kids.
I lost $20.00 gambling and so did Ben (we are so unlucky) Rusty didn't gamble for fear of losing and Holly became addicted to roulette and won $130.00.
Thanks Holly and Rusty for going with us, it was FUN!!

The BLUE MEN!!!

This is at the Vientian Hotel. It is Beautiful. I wish we were made of money and could have taken advantage of the gondala rides.

The trip would not have been complete without a stop at the M&M factory. This store is huge and I mean huge in the sense that it is 4 floors. I know what your thinking how could there be that big of a store for M&M's. This is where I dropped $20.00 on 2tiny bags of M&M's. At this store there is a place where you can get your own M&M's, the canisters are lined up at the back and there is every color of M&M you can think of. I went a little over board and didn't realize that they were $11.99 a pound. On the positive side my kids loved the M&M's

Tournament of Kings Dinner Show at the Excalibur. We couldn't take any pictures inside once the show started but, this is Ben & I right before the show started. The food was good but, the bad thing was that you had to eat all your food with your hands. (Not good for someone that is a germaphobic)

Stupid Computer

I haven't be able to post lately because I am having a bit of trouble with my internet. I am having to log on at my mother house to post this entry. I hope to have it fixed soon so, please keep watching for a new post. Until then......
