Well I am a terrible mother because we went out to Fort Collins last weekend and I never even took one picture of my girls and their boyfriends BUT the grandchildren are around this week end and I am a picture taking fool!! Ummm that is terrible!!! We had so much fun in Fort Collins just relaxing any way I sure did. I slept in, visited with the girls, and cooked. I did not even go to Old Navy my favorite place to go. Oh well we have one in Sioux Falls now so maybe it isn't that much of a thrill for me now. The time went to fast isn't that funny how much you look forward to that time and in a flash it is gone and we have to look forward to something new.
Last night we went over to Hills, Mn. and went to an Halloween party. All five grandkids were here so we had a great time. Troy and Taylor were there as Mickey and Minnie. Max was so brave he went on stage and did the cake walk of course cousin Danni was there to help him find his brave bone. He won some cookies and Danni won a cake so they were very lucky. They had a sack full of little treasures. They spent hours in the last two days checking out all of the neat things. We had a blizzard and some laughs at Dairy Queen then we came home and watched Bewitched which seemed only fitting for the week end!!! Then the best thing ever a sleep over! Today we made a big pile of leaves in the front this morning and everyone had fun with pumpkins and leaves!!! Grandma is tired tonight after all the excitement! Max and Luke helped me blow leaves this afternoon and take all my pots and empty them into garbage bags. I hope they aren't as tired as I am!!! Now I will add some great pictures of all of our fun and cute goblins!!

Who let the dogs out!!

 

 

Leave time everyone!!

 

What a great looking group!!

 

 

So you guys aren't as scary as I first thought!!

 

 

 

We had a party tonight with a one, two times three and one four year old. When they are teenagers I will probably be too old to party with them! I almost was tonight they were just so pumped up. We had Brecli here for her first solo sleepover so the Honner's from Sioux Falls came and the Durst's from Hills. Oh yes Aunt Colleen and Aunt Lisa also. We ordered pizza, had juice boxes and watched Robots the movie!! Some of us were in bed by nine o'clock...now Grandma/Auntie is done cleaning up and is ready to retire also!! We are sharing our bath pictures I hope it isn't too much for you all to see!! Just 6 squeaky clean little rugrats!!!

Are you ready for some Nebraska football? Look at his game face for this picture he was all about the look.... 

Macy saying move over guys I just have to get rid of this diaper!!! 

This is a full bathtub and Macy isn't even in there. Can you see Troy's head behind Taylors? 

Ok is this a little pumpkin or what who likes to eat grass and hay!! 

Let's have some popcorn boys!! 

All the cousins discussing what a great time we had today!! 

Max, Luke and Troy having a hay fight 

Ella and Luke feeding the goats we even saw friends there!! 

All of the cousins having a great day!! 

Well it is that time of the year when all the work is to be done such as pulling plants, pruning bushes, and you pray that this will be the last time you mow!!! It is also the time for pumpkin patches and carmel apples!!! This week end I did a little of all of the above. It was a beautiful fall day not too hot as it has been and just cool enough that you did not work up a sweat and there was not one whining, crying child in site. I have kids that are into whining, pushing, pinching and the dreaded bitter or may he is just practicing for Halloween and Count Dracula I am not sure but it sure as heck makes for some fun days. We had a big group and went out to the apple orchard. Who would know that a bunch of hay bales could be so much fun. They crawled on it and threw it in the air. Everyone had some kettle corn and just had a great, great time!!!
