Elf shenanigans


 
December 1st, Blizzard is back along with all his naughtiness.
 








murder mystery dinner




Our friends threw a murder mystery dinner night at their home that was themed in a 1983 High School reunion. I LOVE these things!! Scott isn't big on dressing up and stuff but even he had fun.



Scott's character was a tough bad boy who now worked as a bodyguard for the class president who is now running for President of the United States.



I was the class flirt who now owns her own online dating company.
 
 
 
Lots of laughs and silliness. Plus I got to see a whole other side of Scott haha.


Trick or Treat

 

Halloween is such a fun time and Holiday. This year all the kids picked out their own outfits (except Sawyer who didn't care what he was) and helped me gather stuff to make them. I ended up with pictures of all of them except Ellie who was Medusa,  because we got her ready at the same time we had a bunch of family's over for a pre-trick or treating dinner. It was a bit crazy but a fun night with friends.



Macie wanted to be a deer. I looked up how to do face paint for a deer and this is what it turned out like. . Pretty darn cute little deer.




Sawyer was a little homeless man :)



 And of course Connor chose to be the Minecraft guy.

 
 
For dinner I tried the yucky Jello worms I had been wanting to try and the turned out so cool! It took the kids a little while to even try them.
 
 
And we had our eyeball taco salad's again.
 
 
 
 

And to top it all off Scott made a pumpkin pie from scratch out of our Halloween pumpkins.
 Delish!!

Monster Dash 2013



I ran a freaking race!! Never before and probably never again but it was a blast!

 
.



 I ran in the 5K and our group choose 80's aerobic instructors. SO fun. It was the Monster Dash over in Ashland OR just before Halloween.




We even put together a spur of the moment exercise routine for all around us.





I jogged/walked it with this amazing couple (who by the way were 8 1/2 months preggo)







All in all I am so glad I got to do this and will remember it forever. Such a fun group of women.



family pictures

Molly Mortenson took our family pictures one evening and I love them. Here are some of our favorites:









First pack meeting

 













Geocaching FHE

Klamath has some great Geocaching.
We like the ones that turn out to be something fun. This one wasn't super cool but it was hidden inside of a tree and was tricky to find.



We got to sign our names and see who else had found it before us before we put it back.



 
Plus we got a great hike out of it.




Joy School trip to the pumpkin patch

Sawyer is in a fun little Joy School with a bunch of his cute friends. The mom's rotate houses and do a fun scheduled lesson each week. This week they went to the Pumpkin Patch for a field trip.
 






 
It was freezing but the kiddo's didn't care. They were excited to be let loose and pick their very own pumpkin.






 
All that hard work pooped him out.




Adventures in cub scouts

Connor started cub scouts and loves it. He has some amazing leaders and a Super Amazing Scout Guru Grandma!! 
 
 
Grandma Lynnie shocked us all and took charge of helping Connor with scouts. She is amazing and has charts, and binders and pinterest boards on scouts. She is a gem.
 
 
For this activity below Connor had to make up his own game night for our family. He choose to do some carnival like games. He made a Minecraft bean bag toss.
 






 
 
Glow Stick and Syrup bottle ring toss.
 





 
And a game that had marbles that was Sawyer's favorite.




He finished his Bobcat and then got his Wolf soon after. Scouts has been so good for him. He is so proud of his beads, arrows, badges and all his belt loops. All thanks to Grandma Lynnie! 
 He asks me every week if he can wear his uniform to school.
