Daley Happenings

Halloween....just a little late!

HALLOWEEN FESTIVITIES!

So much fun but so many activities. I think we had a our fill of Halloween this year. We had so many different places we went to this year. It was a little crazy. We started off at the Thompson Halloween party, then Jason and I went to the surprise/birthday party, then we went to Dylen and Max's ward's trunk-or-treat, then the kids dressed up for their school parties, and then we had our ward's trunk-or-treat, followed by Halloween. We didn't go trick-or-treating because Halloween was on a Sunday, but the kids got to hand out candy and they loved it. To say the least, we were very tired after all of the fun.

DYLEN AND MAX'S TRUNK-OR-TREAT:

Dax the ninja.

Logan the Ninja Turtle. He loved this costume and wanted to wear it all the time. I love when he had the mask on.

Max and Dax as Ninja's and Logan.

Afton as Pippi Longstocking. She borrowed my mom's shoes for her costume.

Doing some fishing. Afton and Dylen getting ready to go across the stage for the costume parade.

CLASSROOM PARTIES:

I had to get a good picture of Afton's hair because I finally figured out the best way to make it stay. So I snapped this picture before she went to school.

Dax and his best Ninja pose before going to class. ( I didn't get any pictures in his classroom because I didn't help in his class that day).

Afton's party. I had to help in her room so I was able to take a few pictures.

Painting their pumpkins.

My mom came to help in the class too, so we had Logan with us.

CARVING PUMPKINS AND TRUNK-OR-TREAT:

Afton and her Kitty Pumpkin

My mom and i wanted to carve a throwing up pumpkin. I thought it turned out pretty good. The kids thought it was gross.

Dax wanted to carve a Jazz pumpkin so Jason helped him out.

The pumpkins

On our way to the trunk-or-treat. I can't believe it but Jason dressed up. He was Wayne from Wayne's World. We had a great time at the trunk-or-treat this year. They had games, food, a petting zoo, face painting and then of course the trunk-or-treating. The kids had a great time!

My mom as a scary witch with the kiddos. Logan wasn't too sure about her costume.

the Pippi's

Logan and his BFF Grey.

Dax invited his friend, Andres, from school. His parents speak Spanish, so Jason and Dax went to their house and invited them to the trunk-or-treat and they came. Dax was pretty excited.

Afton and Dax with Kaitlyn.

Afton also invited some friends from her class. Their names are Cassie and Rachel and they are identical twins.

Pumpkin Patch!!

This is one of my favorite traditions that we have in our family. I love going to pick pumpkins straight from the fields. And we're so lucky that the growers that Jason works with let us come and pick their pumpkins. The kids love it and we love it. And we were even more lucky this year because my mom came to visit and was able to go with us. We also had some of our friends meet us their with their families. We had such a great time and can't wait for next year.

Afton and Grandma Darla. Found a good one.

Dax and Logan walking through the field.

Logan and his best friend Grey. These boys are so hilarious together and they just love each other so much! They had so much fun walking up and down the rows of pumpkins.

The amazing pumpkin fields. We were able to go to a field that they were still harvesting so there were some great pumpkins still left.

All the kiddos. Sorry about the sun, but they didn't want it shining in their faces so we had to have it shine in our cameras. The Astle's, The Thompson's, The Black's and the Fallentine's came with us. These are all of our crazy kids!

Had to do a silly face pose.

The hot momma's! Heather, Me, Amber, Lara, and Krissy

After the pumpkin patch we headed over to Dellosso Farms for some fun. We went to the petting zoo, jumped on the big pillows, blasted some pumpkins and rode some horses.

This is the one thing that Afton really wanted to do the whole night.

last days of soccer

I can't believe that soccer is finally over. The kids last game was on the 30th of October and all I can say is that it was a great soccer season but I'm so happy it's over. I've never been so busy in my life. It was crazy! But the kids loved it and Jason and I had a great time watching them play. I'm really glad that I was able to help coach Daxon's team. It was a lot of fun.....and a lot of work. And thanks to my mother-in-law and mom for coming out to watch their games. It meant a lot to the kids. They were so excited to have their grandma's there to watch.

I took these pictures after one of their games. It was fun to have Dylen on Daxon's team and Logan loved having Max there to run around with.

Logan's last game. The coach gave them medals. Logan and his coach Jesse.

Daxon's last game. They won the game and I guess there were a few players on the other team that weren't being very nice. One player ran into Dax and knocked him down and Dax got up and the kid just stared him down like he was wanting him to make a move. And the coach for this orange team was CRAZY! She'd get mad at her team and yell at them. Maybe that's why the kids on her team weren't very nice. Dax scored a goal in this game.

Afton's last game. Her team played really well this game. They won and all the girls were so excited!

Afton with her coaches Brittany and Ashley.

We had a pizza party for Daxon's team. The whole team was there.

(L to R) Dylen, Sydney, Emily, Christian, Jared, Dax, Tyler, Conner, David and Ronaldo.

More parties

On October 22nd, Jason and I were invited to a birthday/Halloween party of a friend in our ward. I dressed up, but my husband wouldn't. He's such a party pooper when it comes to dressing up. Oh well, maybe next year. We had a great time at the party though. A lot of our friends were there in costume and we played some games and ate yummy appetizers.

The party girls! Me, Stacey (b-day girl), Amber, Tiffany, and Sara.

Me and my gorgeous friend Amber in her Asian attire.

Jason was a competitor in the pie eating contest. He was the only guy in his group so all of the girls volunteered him for that portion of the games. What a lucky guy!

I also participated in the games. I had to drink a can of V-8 juice and I like the stuff but not enough to down it the fastest. I gave my camera to Jason to snap a picture but he didn't.

Another game. They had to smell certain things and guess what the item was. My team totally rocked. We won the competition!
