It's Been a Hectic Week........Here is what you missed lately...........

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!For Halloween this year, I borrowed a "Star Wars" costume for Colton. My co-worker Dianne invited Colton and I over to join her family and friends for trick-or-treating.......and it was great!!

I am not a big fan of Halloween........never have been...........but the joy in my sons eyes, makes it all worth it. This year we were joined by Dianne's neighbor who always goes all out for Halloween. He disguised himself as the grim reaper (yuk)....which scared Colton. I had to convince Colton that he wasn't real, and that he was an actual doctor. By the end of the night.........and after a ton of candy that was collected.......Colton finally warmed up to the grim reaper (only because he wanted to ride in his polaris)..........Happy Halloween Everyone!!!!

Pumpkin Carving...........

On Friday, October 30th..........Colton carved his first pumpkin. Yes, I am a bad mom.....he is 6 years old, and finally carved his first pumpkin. He had a Halloween party at school, which they provided all the Kindergarteners w/ there own pumpkin. Well when we got home, our neighbors were outside carving there pumpkins and they invited Colton over. He had a blast. At first he didn't want to take out the "guk", but once he finally put his hand in..........he thought it was funny. I think we found a new tradition...........thanks Fred & Robin for making tonight a wonderful, memoriable night!!!

COLTON'S TURNS 6!!!!
Colton turned 6 today. I took the morning off to spend it with him. We started out the morning going to IHOP for breakfast. I told him he could pick anything off the menu.......didn't realize he wanted a large meal. He ate about 1/2 of it...........Goodness gracious!! He told me he was a big boy now............NOOOOO!!!! After breakfast I took him to school..........who loves going to school on your birthday??? :) But I was able to go back to his school for lunch and eat with him........which he wasted about 3/4 of the meal, because he was not hungry from his BIG BREAKFAST!! After lunch, we celebrated his birthday in his classroom with the cookies, rice krispie treats, and juices I brought in. They sung him Happy Birthday......cha cha cha...........which he loved. Colton is just like his mama...........when the birthday comes around.......it is all about him!!! Had a lovely morning with my big 6 year old!!!! He is growing up too too fast!! Happy Birthday Buddy!!

Birthday Party!!!!

Colton had his 6th year birthday party on Saturday, October 24th. The party was a hit......... We had it at Pump It Up this year......Colton loves that place. There were about 23 kids........but it didn't seem like that at all. I enjoyed spending time w/ family and friends, another great party for my special guy!!
