Fall Festival

This last weekend we decided it was time to start celebrating fall, and what better way than going to the Idaho Botanical Garden's Scarecrow Stroll :)
The last time we went to this event was the fall we decided to start trying to add another little to our bunch which is when this blog was started with My 1st Post!
It was way easier to take pictures with only 2 babies, but I am so glad we have the 3rd!!
And I am so glad that I am still blessed to enjoy these events with their daddy
Unlike their little brother who still needs help

These 2 have gone from mess makers to perfectionists ;)
But their brother is learning to pose with pumpkins just like them haha
.
The amount of joy each of my 3 children bring me (especially when they play together) can not be matched!!
Even when they climb 
Play in the water
And catch new friends
Oh how I love them
And their daddy who takes good care of us!
(This is how they worn themselves out from all that sugar)

Our Princess Unicorn turned 9

Daddy's Girl is growing way too fast!
But she still would rather spend her time with him over anyone else which makes my heart so happy!
Daddy woke up early to make his girl a 9 shaped pancake, and her favorite eggs!
We filled the house with balloons that had notes to her, and even decorated the car and her bathroom mirror :)
That afternoon Dad went to lunch at her school, played with her and her friends at recess, and brought her class birthday snacks! 
After school we took the kids to get pumpkins at a local patch.
Then my family came over for dinner and carving fun!
 James thought the pumpkin guts were amazing!
The older kids not so much ;)
Even the newlyweds made it which made Jenna feel super special!
Seeing Jenna doesn't like cake much she wanted pumpkin cookies with her presents!
 The next night Daddy's future WNBA Rock star had her 1st Basketball practice
James had his 1st flying lesson ;) 
 Thursday Night was her school carnival 
I was helping run things, so she spent the evening with dad and her girlfriends. 
After her 1st game on Saturday we threw her a 
Costume Party
with all of her closest friends :)
 She didn't want a cake, so she had Vampire Doughnuts instead ;)
 The Prizes for Best, scariest, and cutest costumes 
And candy popcorn hands for favors!
 The 1st part of the party we had a Magician who had the kids laughing, and totally impressed!
Then he made them all balloon surprises ;)
 Everyone even daddy dressed for her party hahaha
Then we had a Jennabelle Carnival!
We had a pumpkin ring toss, Ghost bowling, Spider darts, and goblin eyeball throw for the kids to earn tickets for fun prizes!
(Thanks to Aunt Eva, Uncle Dave, Uncle Joshy, Auntie Grace, and Grandma April for running the games)
 The all time favorite fame was Bobbing for Apples much to my surprise!
All of the kids wanted to get an apple and we ended up going through 2 bags of them!
 Then while Jenna opened her gifts her friends ate their apples and doughnuts!
Then ran the sugar off in the back yard until their parents picked them up!
That night we had Jenna's favorite dinner while we had family movie night!
Then Sunday after church Grandma and Mandi brought lunch and presents for one last party!
Then the kids spent hours in the backyard with dad playing basketball :)
Which is how Jennabelle would spend every day if you let her pick!
I am so thankful for this sweet, fun, loving girl that God has blessed Michael and I with!
And thankful to everyone who helped us celebrate her birthday "week"!

Fall Shenanigans!

This last weekend to reward our older kids for being so helpful we took them to Farmstead! 
It was the perfect weather, and a great night!
Kade finally got Jenna (after 3 years of trying) to go in the "monster" with him! 
After 20 mins of them playing in it Dad had to go in after them ;)
We went on a hayride to get pumpkins!
We even found a Jamie size one!

While Big Sister and Brother "shot" at each other 
James chased the balls around until he got one! 
Kade is such a good big brother he carried James around the petting 
zoo teaching him about the animals!
Though James did not like when Kade got the geese to Honk at him ;)
Jenna also loves spending time with "her baby" 
I love how well all of my kids get along and how much they care about each other!
Siblings really are the most important people in a persons life! No matter how many friends come and go, and what happens to your parents your siblings will be there! 
I am glad my kids have that!

The boys loved the corn box
Jenna wasn't as much of a fan 

It truly was a beautiful night!
