our adorable little boys this halloween...trying on their costumes a few days before, playing in the leaves before heading out to trick or treat and walking the block with Owen's good friend, Bella. it was our first and it was pretty fun. Wyatt figured out what was going on by house #2 and would start to squirm when Owen walked up to the doors pointing to make sure he could go too. he'd reach into the bowls and take a piece of candy then say "thank you" as best he can and wave bye-bye. I think I smiled the entire time we were out there. It was a beautiful evening and a wonderful time with my boys...the dry boys!
Seriously, my boys would be outside ALL day if I did not force (and I mean pick them up and carry) them inside. Quite frequently, Owen asks me if he can go outside even before breakfast.
If this isn't the cutest face...Owen asked me to cover him with leaves. I told him to smile so I could take his picture and he gave me an awful face so I told him to laugh as I clicked and this is what I got...priceless.
Can I even post this on a public blog? Owen can hardly stop playing long enough to go pee...if you look to the bottom right corner, you'll see Wyatt's foot as he stands by watching his big brother.
The boys and I spent an hour at Fort Missoula learning how to make apple cider...the REAL way. Of course, most of our time was spent climbing trees and running around but the boys did participate in making the cider. They rolled the apples into the press and watched as the instructor "chopped" the apples into tiny pieces. When it was done, we got to try some and it was delicious.
It took me a good minute to get Wyatt to stop and look at me so I could take this photo. He is just as busy and crazy as his brother.
