We have had a long, beautiful, warm fall this year! I feel we're pretty lucky to have made it to Halloween without any snow yet! So here's what we've done the last month for fall and Halloween:
We kept it simple and went to the pumpkin patch by our house again this year so the boys could pick pumpkins. As soon as we got there they saw a "pirate ship" and went to go play on the playground, and corn seeds.
We finally convinced them to go look at pumpkins and they each picked one. 
One Sunday we decided to go for a drive in the mountains and see the fall trees. Most of the trees had lost their leaves already but it was still a pretty drive up to Echo Lake, though a little chilly so we didn't walk around for long, but it was beautiful.
Afterwards, we headed back down the mountain into Idaho Springs to our favorite park and spot to picnic at along the river. We literally come up here every year and the kids love it.
Jacob has also really gotten into wanting to take pictures on my camera, so he took some of me by the river this year, and I tried to get some cute pictures of the boys again too. It was a beautiful day and we had a great time in the mountains. 
Later in the month we finally carved our pumpkins- actually I only
carved Jacob's. I've decided I really don't like this job-
pumpkins are pretty gross, ha. But Jacob was a good helper, and we've
discovered he loves eating roasted pumpkin seeds.
The weekend before Halloween we went to the school party, and also the ward's chili cook off/trunk or treat party. They were able to play games, and get candy and run around with friends so they had a good time.
On Halloween Blake and I went to Jacob's school to watch him in the costume parade then we stayed for the party with his class and I helped out with some of the activities. Everyone had a good time and even Blake was a trooper. 
We also got to stay and have a little breakfast snack with them after their activity stations, it was a fun way to start off the day!
Finally the boys got to go trick or treating later Halloween night. As
you can tell Jacob was a pirate and Blake used the Buzz
Lightyear costume we had, pretty easy (but cute!) costumes this year.
Blake wasn't interested in wearing his costume to any of his preschool
parties or anything, so I was glad he put it on and was excited to go trick or
treating. I took the boys out while Luke stayed back as usual to pass out candy.
The boys were able to run into a few friends along the way but halfway around the block they both got tired and starting losing interest, but I made them keep going until
we made it around the block back home. I know, I'm a mean mom that made them collect more candy!
But it was worth it. Once we got home we had plenty of treats to keep us all happy. Whew, I'm glad Halloween is over this year, I'm ready for the next holiday season!
