Fall Festival

We had a great time together Friday night at a Fall Festival for our ward at church. It was outside at a historic farm in Grapevine. The kids had a trial run in their Halloween costumes and if I do say so myself, they looked darn cute! There was a cake walk and lots of fun playing carnival games. Colton was feeling pretty "free" from parental supervision and ran crazy with his friends. I kept asking Joel, "Have you seen Colton???" and he just kept reassuring me that he was having a great time and we'd find him later. Well, he found us when it was time to start the trick-or-treating portion of the night - only because we had his candy bag. I could tell at that moment that he'd find me only when he desperately needs me. Maybe this is a sign of things to come! He is almost 7 you know and feeling quite grown up!
Ladybug & Harry Potter
Danika is doing this funny thing in pictures now where she has to touch her face. Usually she's pulling her cheeks out and making a "monster" face. Thankfully we took this pic caught her just before that scary face!

Hey, we just had our trunk or treat at the church tonight! We were helping and it was a lot of work, we hardly saw Cayden or Preston either, since he believes he can do whatever cayden does, so that was kind of nice. I love Dani's smile, so cute.
