They all four had a great time. this was Tarah and Mathews first time going with us but we had been for a couple of years. Josh made such a cute little gorilla and Jamey made such a good Ninja turtle. wonder what they will be next year? Happy Halloween everyone.

I never knew until I married Jimmy that pumpkin carving could involve power tools but boy does he enjoy it. This is the second year Jamey has been able to help Josh wants to so bad but he is still to little maybe next year. Jamey picked the spider this year last year was the pirate. also he got the pumpkin guts all over him this is a first for him usually he refuses to touch them. He is getting so big. I love my little family.

Pirate Ships

This cute little table was a birthday Present for Josh from my Aunt Reta and my Good friend Gin. He loves it big brother loves it and well all the kids love it. Mathew climbed in it yesterday and I had to get him out if my camera had not been dead I would have gotten a picture . Oh well maybe next time.

Brothers

OK this is my boys wearing the same outfit . My Aunt Jean bought this outfit when Jamey was 18 months old . Jamey is younger in the pictures of him and Josh is 2 but it is the same outfit. I could not resist posting the pictures of them in it. It is so cool to see them side by side you can really tell they are brothers.
