Halloween Parties!

First, I just want to tell you that I got my camera working, I know miracle to say the least. I soaked it in rice for about 3 days and I guess that did the trick. I notice that it is not as good as taking photos as it was  when people are moving but it still works! I was so thankful even though I still might want to upgrade soon. Thanks goodness for my hubbies iphone too to save the day with pics. I seriously thank my Father in Heaven and it just goes to show that he even answers the little prayers like "please help my camera to make it!" So I am not camera-less anymore! YAY! 

Halloween was was fun this year. Treyson actually understood it and was so excited. They originally were going to be Spiderman and Batman but when I took the kids to the store they took one look at the transformer costumes and said, "we want to be Autobots!" If you did not know they are in love with Transformers! 

Meet our big boy Treyson Bumblebee
Treyson favorite character besides Megatron..LOL! I know Megatron is the bad one but Treyson likes him only because he turns into a plane/jet. 
Trey loved his costume so much, well that is an understatement. He was so obsessed with it and would get so excited he would start screaming and squealing when he would get to put it on. Taking it off was the opposite, he would cry so bad and say..."I want to be Bumblebee and save the day!" Precious I know.
 Meet our little man Optimus Prime!
Porter was actually scared of his costume at first but he has to be just like his big brother so he let us put it on. 
Once he got it on he was so excited about it. "Autobots, Autobots!" Porter also learned to say, "I am Prime!" LOL. He grew to love his costume just as much as Treyson, although he did not like his mask-hat over his eyes at all so he just wore it more up high. 
They seriously looked so awesome in their costumes. They loved to look at themselves in the mirror and do actions and play pretend like they were really Autobots..LOL! For real, they were so dang cute! 
 We love our little Transformers!! 
 Can't get enough of our little Autobots! 
The first party we went to was the Annual Palmer Halloween. It was a little hectic but fun. This is actually where I revealed to all my friends I was prego as well with my skeleton baby shirt. It was funny because some noticed and some didn't. When the people who did not notice at first finally did...well let just say it was pretty funny! They boys got to do a little trick or treating which was fun for them too.  
 Drum roll please: Treyson won the costume contest again!! LOL, our first year here he won the scariest costume as well just like he did this year. We seriously were not expecting him to win but he did and he got a $20 gift card to Toys R Us. 
 The second Halloween Party we did was for Treyson Preschool co-opt. I hosted it and it sure was a hit. We played pin the nose on the jack-o-lantern, dance to some Halloween songs, and made scary sounds and noises. I just love little kids, they are hilarious especially when they are all together. 
I did not want the Halloween Party to be focused on treats and candy since they would already be getting plenty of that the month of October. All of the snacks I made were healthy and yummy. Some of them I got off Pinterest and other I mad up on my own. The kids loved them. I will be posting it on my wellness hi way blog soon:)  

Witches Poison= Grape juice with dry ice.
Killer Spiders= String cheese, organic pb and raisins, and Chinese noodles. 
Pumpkin Fingers= Organic carrots, almond pieces Greek yogurt and ranch seasoning. 
Shrunken Brains= Raw organic Cauliflower.
Frankenstein Guts= Guacamole Dip with chips. 
 For the fruit I did
Creepy Ghost= Banana dipped in honey or orange juice then in coconut, with dark chocolate chips and cheerios.
Zombie Teeth= Organic green apples with slivered almonds. 
I did made the kids some Halloween cupcakes which they loved as well. 
YAY for parties, I love planning them:) 
 My last Halloween Party was our Stake Youth Halloween Dinner and Dance. I was the only leader that could go which I don't mind because I love Stake Dances. I am always out there shaking it with my girls even though not many of them came. I taught them the thriller line dance which is a MUST during Halloween month. It was a blast! 

1st and 2nd ward leaders and girls.
That's it for all the Halloween Parties. There will be more Halloween fun coming your way. Hope everyone has had a great Halloween Weekend! 
BOO!

Halloween Surprise!

I told you my "other" Halloween costume was going to be a BIG SURPRISE!! 
Meet Baby Price #3!! 
 Yes, it is TRUE! We are going to have another wee one:) 
 I ordered my skeleton baby shirt and just thought it would be a fun way to announce our new arrival, not to mention it was an all in one costume that baby and I! I still do not have much to show for it so the shirt was a little big even though it was an XS. I am sure in due time I will fill up the shirt nicely! 
 I waited until 13 weeks since the number 13 is a "creepy" number. I just thought it fit perfect with my Halloween Surprise! 
I am 13 weeks exactly which put me at 3 months and means I am on to second trimester already. We are really really excited for our special delivery that will be coming to bless our home... April 18th, 2012! More details to come. Until then, Happy Early Halloween!

Welcoming October

Our family is welcoming October with open arms. The weather has been so nice and the leaves have been falling making the scenery so gorgeous! Colors of orange and red are filling our trees and lawn. I love this time of year! Here we come FALL! 
 Last night we had our Young Women Halloween Party. I did not have a costume so I had to throw one together really fast. It was between a cow girl or a biker girl and I chose the biker girl since one day Our family hopes to own a bike, a Harley that is. Yes, if you did not know, I have a WILD heart! 
 I thought my costume turned out pretty smooth, vest, chains, boots and all. I just salvaged stuff from my closet and it got put together nicely!  Just missing a Harley Davidson now..LOL! 
 Only 2 of us leaders fully dressed up. I love dressing up for Halloween! Sadly I don't even know what my kids are going to be yet....haha! 
 Not many of our young men were there but they dressed up too! 
 All of our girls looked so so cute! Their costumes were awesome! 
We had a blast. We played some pumpkin bowling, then some capture the flag, and then had some yummy treats! Davenport 1st war youth, ROCK ON! 
 Our Leaders partied like a ROCK STAR too! I definitely work with great ambitious fun women. My calling is beyond awesome! 
That about wraps up the first part of October. YAY for Halloween Festivities. Just wait until you see my other costume, its going to be such a big SURPRISE!! 

PS. Even though I had so much fun this night it was most certainly not my day. Earlier that day to avoid a head on collision in the parking lot of walmart I over corrected and hit a parked car. Luckily the damage was not too bad. Then comes the real downer.... that night while going to the bathroom my camera fell out of my back pocket into the toilet!! Yes, go me right? If any of you know me you know how sentimental I get about my camera and pictures. I was seriously so upset. Luckily my pictures were saved and the sd card did not get damage. My camera on the other hand, well...I made the mistake of turning it on! Just an FYI, when you drop an electronic in water NEVER turn it on! Wait until it dries for a couple days then try it. My husband just laughs at me and he just said, "I am just glad I did not do it and these are the things I love about you!" I actually wont know the full damage until tomorrow but it not looking promising. I am seriously so bummed because its right before the holidays when the most pictures are taken. I guess the husbands iphone will have to come in handy or if I can get someone to let me borrow their old digital, or something. Really me w/o a camera? I feel naked!  Yes it just stinks a big one. I am thankful that my pictures were recovered though, because you can always replace a camera but never your pictures that are precious memories to you. Anyways that is my sob story of the night. Pray for my little camera...LOL! 

Happy weekend to All!
