Halloween 2013

Aunt Jenny made the boys awesome new hats! The minion one is my favorite!
 The week before Halloween we had a neighborhood trunk or treat. The boys had a lot of fun and got lots of candy. My candy was out before ten minutes... Oops!
Audrey had an awesome little Native American dress.

Brock made this cute little picture at his school! I loved it and had to take a picture of it.

Halloween morning! The boys aren't allowed to wear masks to school so we got a little creative. Seth brought them into my work that morning and we spray painted their hair. Brock didn't want the Tony Start goatee, but Dordor did! We thought they looked pretty cool! Washing/scrubbing it off in the evening was really exciting!
Our neighbor boy Braddock was dressed as R2-D2. I thought it looked awesome!
I was at work and the principal that was over me, Kristin, let me leave and go to the boys Halloween parade! I was so happy. It is always so fun to watch all the kids.

Dordor and his class...

Brocky and his class. I loved how he threw up the guns!


Trick or treating.
Our little neighbor boy had my favorite costume. He was a little garden gnome and he looked so cute!
We had a really fun Halloween this year! I can't believe it is already November!

Fishing!!!

 The day the boys have been waiting for finally arrived! Fishing day! We had a bit of a hard time getting a day that worked for all of us and the weather the last two weeks, but we finally made it happen! The dogs were just as excited about it as the boys!
 Papa K and Grandma led us to a great little pond in American Fork called Manilla pond.
 Papa K and Daddy got the boys all set up and they started casting.
 I took the much harder job of walking the dogs around the park. They were so hyper that it was nuts! I was wore out by the end of it!


 They waited patiently, but it wasn't too long before they both got a bite! They both got the first one at about the exact same time!






 They were each allowed to catch two fish, which they did. It only took about 45 minutes from start to finish. As we were driving away Brock asked if we can go fishing again.





 We swung by Grandma and Papa K's on the way home and learned how to gut and clean them. Papa K told me how to cook them and how we are supposed to eat them. He said he was going to quiz me and he would be mad if I didn't eat one. (He is going to be mad at me!)
 The boys were both so excited to eat the dinner they caught! Doran devoured his. I knew he would. He loves fish and always asks for it. Brock I was nervous wouldn't like it. Seth told him if he doesn't like fish he will have to catch and release. He loved it! They both ate the whole fish. We gave Grandma and Grandpa Engman the other two.
 And done!

Two weeks..

 It has been two weeks since I last updated. Not much has happened. School, work, and fall break. We stayed home and relaxed for fall break, which is just what I wanted to do. The boys have been doing really well in school so far. They are great at doing their homework and are both learning so much. I still can't get over hearing Doran speak in Chinese at parent teacher conference. Brocky is sounding words out and memorizing sight words!

 The boys got a package in the mail from Aunt Jenny last week. They loved the beanies she made them. She made Brock and Trixie one and Doran a Sharky one. They both wore them for days straight.

 We have two little daddies boys. These are both different mornings. They love to cuddle with Seth when he comes home off the night shift. I had to take pictures to show Seth how cute it was!
 Which item at Olive Garden has egg:
-breadsticks
-alfredo dipping sauce
-the Olive Garden garden salad without croutons
-penne pasta
-mashed potatoes
The correct answer is the salad. I was so shocked. He hasn't actually eaten egg in awhile so it was crazy how sick he got and how fast. I had no idea that egg is in ceasar dressing. I only thought it was in ranch style dressing.

 We have been on a game kick lately. We have been playing lots of Uno and lots off Sorry. The boys love playing games. We have so much fun!
 We are getting excited for Halloween. We have been eating starburst candy corns! Yummy!
 Last week Brock watched Marley and Me for the first time. I remembered the end of it and how it affected Doran so I was ready with a camera while Brock was watching. It broke his heart too! Such a sad movie, but really makes you love your dogs.

 Papa K got Doran and Brocky fishing poles! They are so excited to go fishing. He came over and gave them a lesson on how to work the pole and throw the line so they know what to do when we go fishing next week!






 We were driving in Sandy the other night and saw this Chinese store. There were big symbols on the sign and Doran recognized one and said it says big! I thought it was so cool!
 We went to our friend's wedding reception and the boys were in heaven. There was a smores making station! Brilliant!

 Last night was Otterfest at the boys school! They had a blast. When we left Doran said it was the greatest night of his life! They ate chic-fil-a, found the otters on a scavenger hunt, and played all sorts of games and activities for tickets!
 This was hanging in the hall by Doran's classroom door. Had to take a picture!
Their favorite activities were the bungee run and an obstacle course. Doran was the strongest little kid there! He was the first little kid the guy saw make it all the way to the end. Doran was really proud. Brock was proud of himself for beating Dordor by about two seconds on the obstacle course. It was a fun night!
