Happy Halloween!!/Carving Up Some Pumpkins!!

Hey all! Sorry its been a while since we posted, but we have just recently found our camera again after losing it at Amberly's parents house. Here are some pics of us carving our awesome pumpkins:

Can you believe how long Andrew's hair is getting?

Here is our good friend Joey who carved the pumpkin on the left:

Andrew was very ambitous this year and decided to carve both sides of his pumpkin.

And finally here are some pics of Aydan being a super cute Dragon for Halloween!

We stayed in Elko this year for Halloween because Andrew had to work, I know grown up jobs what can ya do? Anyway we found out that Elko has a fun tradition of setting up these little houses in their convention center. Its called Trick or Treat Street and boy was it super busy. We waited in line for over an hour to trick or treat for ten minutes. After the Trick or Treat Street we headed over to one of Andrew's colleague homes to hang out for a bit and help them pass out candy. Aydan had a lot of fun playing with her two kids and they did a great job of sharing their toys! Something we need to work on with Aydan. :) We topped off the night with watching Ghost Busters with Joey and Lynsie Mortensen. All in all it was great night! Next stop Thanksgiving in California!

Aydan Dancing!

For the last few months Aydan as really been into dancing to any music that comes on the t.v., internet, or stereo. When he hears music that he really loves or gets excited about he jumps up on the coffee table and goes crazy. We have been wanting to get it on video for so long but our camera never seems to be charged. Thankfully our new good friends Joey and Lynsie were over the other day for dinner and caught the Aydan show on their cell phone. I hope you enjoy it!

The other thing I really want to get on video is Aydan watching "Nemo" he is so funny! He is starting to act out the parts and say all the lines, which probably means he has been watching it way to much! :) Or that we have been traveling too much this summer, probably a bit of both.

How a box turns into a fort. :)

For Mothers Day Andrew ordered me a freezer from Home Depot, I know not totally romantic but very needed. The box it came in was so big that even I could stand straight up in it and not hit my head. LOL that's probably not saying much. Anyway Aydan and I turned it into a fort for him to play in and he loved it! Please excuse Aydan not having his shorts on, he wasn't in the mood for them I guess. :)

Aydan falls asleep in the strangest places...

When Andrew and I checked on Aydan one night before we headed off to bed we panicked because we couldn't find him anywhere in his room! After a quick search, Andrew suggested we look under the bed and there he was totally asleep under his bed. :)

Help! I'm stuck in my bed and can't get out!! :)

So just so everyone knows we are alive and kicking. :) And to prove it here are some pics of what Aydan has been up to lately, namely getting stuck in his bed. He does this on purpose and you guessed it to get attention from his sleeping parents in the middle of the night or very early morning. It will be 3:00 am and then we'll hear this little voice calling: "Daddy...Mommy...Stuck!" These pics were taken when he was supposed to be taking his afternoon nap. Enjoy!

The Lotion Monster...Scary Stuff

Aydan has a fixation with lotion and we have found that we can't leave it anywhere in his room. Even the top self of the closet isn't a good enough hiding space. Which is where he found the lotion he is sporting in these pics. A full brand new bottle of lotion all over him and his room. Enjoy!
