sweet home colorado: a few more HALLOWEEN highlights...

This post is random...

really random, but just wanted to share a few more highlights from Halloween week!

I love sending/making/creating cards. I love getting mail myself, so I think it's fun to be able to send a little love via snail mail! For most holidays we make a crafty card or I do a photo card of some sort to give to the fam. Here's our Halloween card this year!

Grandma & Grandpa and Uncle T. sent the boys a great Halloween package! We Skyped with them while opening it so I didn't get any pictures, but the best part of the package for Nolan were these Halloween ducks! He played with them non stop for a week straight I think! And if you come over, he will for sure ask you which one is your favorite! Ha!

Our little Dracula...scary huh?!

Nolan and Heath got Halloween cards from Oma & Opa. They LOVED opening them and seeing what was inside...

MONEY!!! It's amazing how $2 can make a 3 year old so happy!

Money...not sure Heath really knows what it is, but when he saw his brother so excited about it, he knew it must be pretty cool!

And they got stickers too! Nolan decorated his whole card right away using every single sticker!

When Heath does stickers he puts them all over his arms and legs! He looks a little crazed in this photo! Ha! He is showing off the stickers on his hand and saying "CHEESE", but crazed IS really a great description of him! He is truly "crA crA" as Nolan likes to say! Love his passion for life, but his fiesty-ness about puts me over the edge sometimes!

Auntie also sent the boys a fun package, not so much for Halloween, but full of funny little things she's picked up for the boys recently. It was cheaper for her to send the package than to check a bag on her flight. The boys LOVE getting things in the mail anyways so we opened it up when she got here!

Auntie Mal brought all sorts of random treasures from her recent trip to Minnesota. This face on a stick being one of them. Apparently his name is Ron something or other. But Ron has brought our boys countless hours of fun since he arrived at our house! They think he is just so funny! And we play "Hide Ron" just about every day! Nolan gets a kick out of hiding him somewhere in the house and having us find him. And we do the same for him! He thought it was hilarious when he found Ron tucked into his bed at naptime. He said, "Hey, what's Ron doing in my bed?!"

Heaters wanted to show off Ron as well...good try!

And then we also ended up with these awesome hats! They are really funny looking!

One night we made a sort of Stromboli creation. It was okay, not awesome, but not bad. However, since Mallory and I both ended up getting the worst stomach bug ever later that night, the thought of this dish is just plain AWFUL! I will not be making it again, that's for sure.

Mark brought home this little leather chair and ottoman that a friend from work gave him. The boys have had a blast with it! They watch shows in it, eat snacks in it, and of course, climb and jump all over it! It's been a fun new addition to the house!
