Happy Halloween!

This was our first Halloween in Illinois.  The boys had fun walking around the neighborhood.  Benny did a great job of ringing doorbells and saying "Trick or Treat".  Timmy mostly sat in the stroller.  He did go up to a few houses though.  Benny went dressed as Indiana Jones and Timmy was a cow. The jack o' lanterns were carved at Grandma and Grandpa's house.  Benny drew the faces and I (Lisa) cut them out. The boys thought the pumpkins were cool once they were lit up.

Timmy's way of Trick or Treating!

Grandpa Pumpkin!

Timmy picked out the shapes for this pumpkin!

We had to save some seed for our garden next year!

Leaves!!!

The boys had never had the chance to jump into a pile of leaves until this year.  The trees in our back yard dropped quite a bit of them.  Brad used a leaf blower and blew them into a great big pile.  The kids had a blast running and jumping in them. 

Fun at Grandma and Grandpa's House

The boys just love their tractors!

Hanging out with Grandma and Pa Pa!

Fun at the Brookfield Zoo!

 

We recently went to explore our new neighborhood.  We decided to check out the Brookfield Zoo.  It was very nice.  The kids got to ride the carousel and the tram.  We even saw a dolphin show.

We had to go under the street to get to the Zoo.
