Halloween Part 3: The Big Day

Busy, busy, busy....The boys started out their Halloween morning with at a party at their preschool. Then it was off to LBCC for some trick-or-treating fun with their Aunt Miranda and I. Unfortunately Nana was sick so she wasn't able to come with us. After a couple of hours at home for a nap it was back on the road for a quick trip to grandma Dodge's house then off to party with friends at the Forrester house. We ended to evening with Mexican food and yes more trick-or-treating, this time in the rain.

Halloween 2011-Part 2...Cookies

Never a dull moment in the Dodge house. We had a whole hour of free time so we decided that it would be best used baking Halloween cookies. There was a lot of knife licking and not a lot of frosting going on.

Halloween 2011-Part 1

Well it's the Saturday before Halloween so my mom and I took the boys over to my Grandma Hecht's house so she could see them dressed up then we headed downtown to trick-or-treat the businesses in Albany. The boys totally get trick-or-treating now so they had fun and best of all...no rain! Brock was a horse and Mason dressed up as the dinosaur this time.

3yr Old Preschool Class

This is the their first full year of preschool at the First United Methodist Church's Early learning center and the boys love it. They love all the kids, teacher and crafts that they get to do. They are making all sorts of new friends in fact I've never actually seen them play with each other at school. They are always off with other kids. I can't believe that they are big enough to have school photos taken.

Ready for Rainy Weather

Grandma Dodge bought the boys new frog rubber boots and umbrellas. They were so excited that they actually wore their rubber boots to bed that night.

No Training Wheels

James thought it was time for the boys to learn some more balance so he took the training wheels off their bikes. With the yucky weather lately they haven't actually gotten to practice riding them in the drive way yet but they did ride them down hill in the grass. (Because that's much easier right?)and yes Brock is in his pajamas. They had a lot of fun and actually did really well.

Roloff Farms 2011

My mom and I decided to take the boys up to the Roloff farm where we met Josh and Miranda. This is the little people family that has their own TV show on TLC "Little People Big World". The weather was perfect and the crowd was large. They were celebrating Matt Roloff's 50th birthday today and it was interesting to see the camera crews out. We gave up our chance at fame for nap time and left before the party actually started. We took the tractor tour of the property and got to see the old west village, pirate ship, Noah's ark, and castle. They also had a petting zoo, exotic animals, pumpkin patch, hay pyramids, tee-pees and lots of photo ops.
