Captain Hook, Wendy, Peter Pan & Tinkerbell's Tush!We've had a fun couple of days leading into Halloween. The snow stopped Thursday afternoon, Joe got home OK and we were able to get back in the swing of things. On Friday afternoon, Joe watched the trio so I could take JP out for a fun afternoon. We first went to see the movie "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs", that was very cute. JP wore his costume to the movie because afterwards we headed over to Bass Pro Shop for some early trick-or-treating. It was a fun outing and JP was thrilled with the 23 pieces of candy (he counted them on the ride home) he received.
Today was a fun, busy day also. JP's babysitter from when he was little stopped by with some treats. He still loves Nonnie so much and gets excited anytime he gets to see her. Nonnie hadn't see trio since their 1st birthday and couldn't beleive how big they are getting.
This afternoon, JP & I carved the last of our pumpkins. Our neighbor Tracy has a pumpkin carving party every year and this year Joe & JP went. They worked hard on a headless horseman pumpkin that took so much time they were only able to get one done. I did most of the carving today while JP cleaned off the pumpkin seeds. He told me he's a better seed cleaner than carver!
I've lived here over 10 years and it still amazes me how quickly 20" of snow can disappear in our high altitude sunshine. The weather was perfect today, around 60 degrees and sunny. There is still a little snow left on the ground, but it turned out to be a perfect night to trick-or-treat. Peter Pan, Wendy & Tinkerbell stayed home with me to pass out candy. It was warm enough that we all stayed out on the porch until around 7pm. Their job was to say "bye-bye" to the kids when they left. Captain Hook & Dad made out very well gathering candy from our neighbors. When JP got home he had fun passing out candy. As usual, there were tons of people and we were out of candy by 7:50, but we love all the excitement this holiday brings!

The best shot I could get of everyone!
Those 3 are always on the move!
Little Miss Tinkerbell:
My friends 5-year-old triplets stopped by: Emma, Ben & Josh - this was the first time my trio ever saw another set!
Looking at each other through the screen door is always fun!
The headless horseman!
JP was a very popular guy with that candy bowl!
Here's a couple videos:

Ryan is too funny. I adore the video of him running down the street. I think in his head, he's yelling, "I can fly!".
Kelly,
i have to tell you that my most favorite photo is the top one on this post, with Tinkerbell's tush. It just catches what life is like with toddlers! Great idea with the costumes!!
