Applesauce

We made applesauce 2 times this year.  First time my neighbor let me pick the apples from her tree, they were a bit icky but I got all the good parts out.  The next time we went apple picking and got over 70lbs of apples!  YUMMY.  The kids really like helping me put the cooked apples in the apple strainer thing.  And of course they loved eating it at the end :)  

Special Olympics

Our ward had the special opportunity to help out with the Special Olympics that were going on in Glens Falls NY.  We were assigned to Bocce Ball which was quite fascinating to watch as I didn't know what it was.  The athletes were really great and took it very seriously :)  The kids made signs to cheer them on and then they just ran around after.  Danny got to help score keep and take everything down after.

Carving pumpkins

Mason was so excited to carve his pumpkins this year with Danny.  He looked at pictures on the internet and chose is favorite "scariest" faces.  He was a great little helper making sure Danny was doing everything right :)

Halloween costumes!

Mason and Lily were so excited about their costumes that grammy made for them!  Batman and a cute fairy princess :)

The day before Halloween our neighborhood put on a Halloween parade to go around the neighborhood.  Well my kids plus one other showed up, so mostly it turned into playing in the snow :)  Don't let the images fool you, just because there was snow on the ground it was actually a pretty warm day!

I love my cute little monsters :)
