THE CORN MAZE AND PUMPKIN PATCH!
This month has been so fun! We went out to the corn maze and pumpkin patch. We had a blast! Here's a few pics of our adventures...
They had some fun things for the kids to play on.
Paige thought it was fun going under all the tires.
Going on a hay ride!
Looking out at the pumpkin patch.
Paige wanted to pick out a few pumpkins and kept trying to pick them up!
I'm pretty sure that she kept picking the biggest ones she could find :)
Out in the patch!
Found one just my size, Mommy! (we let her take it home, hey it was free!)
We also went through part of the corn maze. There was this bridge that we had to cross in the maze, it was really neat to look over the field of corn and the pumpkin patch!
At the top of the stairs with Daddy. Paige loves to ride on Daddy's shoulders, and most of the time that is just how she holds on... CUTE HUH!?!
Standing on the bridge, Paige loved looking over the edge at all the people below.
So, most of you that know Scott know that he loves teasing... Well, he kept hiding in the corn and would jump out and try to scare Paige. She wasn't to scared though, she mostly just laughed when he would jump out, it was super cute.
Here is a video... Not as good as in person, the best ones I didn't even get! Darn it! Oh, well.
MURDER MYSTERY DINNER!
Every year our awesome friend Barb puts on this super fun Murder Mystery Dinner party for Halloween. This year was Murder under the Big Top! It was so fun! We had lots of yummy carnival food and they even made a tent in the front room! So cool :)
Enjoying the night...
Hangin' with some of our best friends

The theme was set in the 40's. My character was a lion tamer and Scott was the FBI agent.
The whole group together! Thanks for a super fun evening Barb!
PUMPKIN CARVING!
We were a little late on carving pumpkins this year, but we did get it done! A few days before Halloween we had a family night and carved away, Paige even helped draw her face on with a marker!
Looking in the pumpkin, she wasn't to sure about all the stuff inside. When we told her to start taking the insides out, she refused! She wasn't about to touch it! She kept saying, "EWWW!"
Scott putting his design on his pumpkin!
We have done this tradition since the first year we were married...
We look online for a design that we like and make a little harder carving, makes it a bit more fun now that we are adults. And we have loved it!
Paige and Mommy!
Paige loved playing in the bowl of slim, just as long as she didn't have to touch it with her hands she was fine. :) She would stir with her spoon and would tell us that she was cookin'! That's my girl!
Daddy helping Paige carve her pumpkin!
Paige thought it was so fun to pull the pieces out after they were all cut.
So after Daddy helped Paige with her pumpkin he convinced her that the insides weren't so bad and she finally put her hand in, WAY TO GO DADDY!!!!
Trying to put Daddy's lid on her pumpkin...
All done... I think she was a little freaked out, we took the picture in the dark with the pumpkin face glowing. After she saw it a little longer she thought it was pretty cool.
Here's our pumpkins all done!

TRICK OR TREATING!
For Halloween, Paige was Abby Caddabby off Sesame Street. Took a bit of time, but I think her costume turned out great, and best of all... Paige loved it! Mission accomplished! :)
Here's a picture at the ward "Trunk or Treat".
She was super cute!
Here she is with some of her best friends...
The Morrell triplets (they were the three fairies from Sleeping Beauty, aren't they super cute?!?)

Paige and Madison holding hands... Aww...
Then some of our friends have a neighborhood Trick or Treating parade that they invited us to. It was super fun! Here we are headed off to the park for the parade!
Paige with some more of her besties!

Cute pic of us right before the parade!
Just hangin' out...
Waiting for the parade to start...
Scott had to go to work during the time that we would be at the parade so he wore his scrubs. He wasn't just dressed up as a nurse ;) This was the first year since Paige has been born that Scott has gotten to see her in her Halloween costume. It was so fun to have Daddy there! What a special treat.

Looking at her candy... See that purple hair! She loved it! Now when I put hairspray in her hair, she thinks its going to be purple. Funny!
Then after the parade we went out for a little trick or treating through our friends' neighborhood.
Some of our besties! Aren't their girls so cute!?!

Paige did a great job with all the trick or treating this year... Definately had way more fun this year than last. She loved Halloween!!! Everytime she saw something scary she would say "Oooo, SPOOKY!" and we practiced saying Trick or Treat, so she would say "Trick or Treat" to everyone for her candy. And she did! So stinkin' cute! Now if I could just convince her that she can't eat the candy all day long ;)
Happy Holidays Everyone!
