Next we had my nephews 8th Birthday party last Saturday. Ethan had a few of his best friends over and we played all sorts of fun games including Pin the Tail on the Donkey (and Uncle Matt came no where close to winning.) I guess it doesn't help that Uncle Matt got spun 10 times and all the younger kids only got 4 spins... Hardly seems fair to us but thats life of an adult. Anyways, Ethan wanted to have foot long sub sandwiches from Subway so thats what we did. And then what good is a birthday party with cake, ice cream, and presents. Ethan is into pokemon right now so he got some pretty cool pokemon things and some pretty cool wii games from his Uncle Matt and Aunt Jewels. Our next birthday party at that house is Vaughn's 3rd Birthday... They grow up so fast.
What is October without having a Halloween party? About 2 days before Halloween I decided we needed to have some people over, so I texted some people. We ended up having about 10 people over watching scary movies and handing out candy to the little kids who came trick or treating. It was a very fun Halloween. And Halloween is when we found out that we have new neighbors across the street from us, and guess what? They are a young couple who have it looks like a set of twins who are about 1 year old, so our kids will have little playmates when we start having kids.
Yesterday was a blast... Andrew and Paul (Ashley and Jessica's husbands) have been deployed to Afghanistan for one year and they come home in about 2 weeks. Well to kinda celebrate that, and because Matt got free tickets for us, Matt, Jewels, Ashley, Jessica, and Steven went to Elitches for the day and had a blast. We have some pictures to post, but Jess has not emailed them to me yet, so as soon as I get them I will post them. We went through Brutal Planet Haunted House, which was known as the number 1 haunted house in Colorado for about 5 years (Although none of us could figure out why.) It was pretty lame and Matt was so disappointed he wanted to go to a different haunted house where he might actually get a little scared, but Haunted Houses are really expensive so Matt got disappointed again because we decided against paying $16 a piece to go through a haunted house. Maybe next year.












Anyways, there is our October... Hope you all enjoyed reading this Blog. Talk to you all soon, and we can't wait to see you Andrew and Paul.
