Happy Halloween

Here is this year's Halloween costumes. Wizard of Oz style...

Natalie- wicked witch

Jaxen and Brycen- Flying monkeys

Jordan- Scarecrow

Eliza- Dorothy

At one point we all had our complete costumes on, but by the time we actually got a picture, Eliza had lost her hair bows, Toto (the cat), I no longer had on my had, and Natalie had lost her broom.... but you can still get the idea. Natalie worked hard on these costumes and they turned out great!

Yes, this was taken in our basement. We had a huge party here tonight and found out we can fit about 50 people in our basement... It was a lot of fun. 

Mount Rushmore

Grandpa and Grandma Jensen came with Amee to Fort Collins this past weekend. Saturday at about 1pm, we didnt have much going on, so we decided to head to South Dakota to see Mount Rushmore. It was a long drive, but we made it Saturday night and stayed in a hotel that has a water park! We played in the water Sunday morning and then headed to see the faces in the rocks. We got a bunch of pictures and then got on the road again to make it back to Fort Collins. It was a random adventure, but a lot of fun.

Jaxen and Brycen decided that they just couldn't sleep in their own beds, so they invaded ours.

Eliza showing off her cool bat costume... normally we dress our children in clothes, but this is what she wanted to wear after taking off her pajamas, and we decided why not?

Picture Fun

This afternoon we went up the canyon to try and get some family pictures with the fall colors. It was quite the task trying to juggle three kids and the camera, but we had a lot of fun and the kids actually all did really great. 

Randomness

Fun with the screen door
