Happy Haunting!

Syd's, Wes's, Lando's (in that order)

Our Brood...

Little Bee Man Colton

Southern Belle Syd

DARTH Wesley

Elmo/Lando (he went as grunge Elmo)

The Belle and the Bee...

We surely had a Happy Halloween. Uncle Danner/Aaron's brother came over for the weekend to play with us, what a treat (as opposed to a trick). I think that was more exciting for the kids than Halloween, they LOVE their uncle! With Danner we went for a hike at a local park (in the rain) ate food, talked, watched movies, went to church (complete with primary program). The kids did great in the PP. They said their parts clearly and with out help, and were so dang cute! For Halloween we went to a church carnival and trick-or-treating on Friday, and then did regular trick-or-treating around our neighborhood on Halloween night. They got very little candy, which makes mom happy!! A great time was had by all!

Kid Talk

Landon said, "Mom, when I am dad, I am really going to miss living with you! And when I am a grandpa, I will be wrinkly and dry."
I asked Colton why he was rubbing his eyes and he said, "tear water keeps coming out of them."
Aaron won a game on his phone and Colton says, "Dad, I'm so proud of you!"
While listening to song lyrics, "And so we'll catch the world on fire" Landon says: "Mom, why would someone want to do this?"
I was sing along with the radio when I hear, Wes say: Oh man, mom knows the words to this song, that means its a REALLY old song!"
Talking about Pirates of the Carribean wii game, Wes says: "Will Turner is really cool" Landon, in his BEST British accent: "You mean Will Turna?"
After boiling eggs, Wes asked if we were going to eat the scramboiled eggs.
Landon: Mom, your eyelashes are all dirty. Me: That is my make up. It's called mascara. Landon: Oh.
Landon: "Wes, my brain is telling me I want a lick of your popcicle."
Colton: Someping, puter=Play something on the computer
Landon: "Mom, I have a booger stuck in my teeth!"
Landon: "My nose has a headache."
Colton: Funnit=Funny
Colton: Ketchup=shup
Colton: Wuv you.
Landon: Gutair-it=Target
While at the library, Landon saw a bunch of Elders (missionaries)in their suits, on the computers (P day) and says "Wow, look at all those wedding guys!"
During FHE we were thinking of compliments to say to each other. Wes says to Sydnie "You are the best sister I could ever ask for."
While watching MoTab sing Christmas songs on Youtube, Wes says: "They are all wearing the same thing, they must shop at the same place."
Me: "Landon, don't play with that, it's expensive." Landon: What is "Spankive?"
At Costco Wes asks: "Mom, how do they get all the stuff up so high on the shelves?" Before I could say forklift, Landon says: "Spiderman probably does it."
Landon: Stuck together= Stucky gether.
Landon: Good job on putting my shoes on my feet mom!
I was peeling potatoes and Landon asked if I was making potato heads.
Landon singing: Rock-a-bye baby in the tree honk.
Me: "Landon, you are SO demanding!" Landon (in the saddest voice possible): "I am not demanding, I am just Lando."
Our neighbors have a little Chihuahua. They told the kids to stay away from it because it bites. Wes is very scared of it and calls it the "female biting chihuahua."
Wes leans over to me in Sacrament Meeting and says "I'm filled with the spirit!"
Sydnie to me: Ms. Vigil (her teacher) was out sick today with a stomach ache. Wes: "Maybe she needs to go poo." (can you tell that is what he hears a lot, from me?)
After Colton sneezed Landon said to him, "bless you, Tiny."
