Mischief is My Middle Name!

This morning Cole decided he was going to comb his own hair after his bath! I went up to take a shower and when I came back downstairs I found Cole in the bathroom combing his hair! However, not only did he comb his hair but he also put several products into his hair to in his words "Make it look cool!" All of those bottles on the counter were put into his hair including mosquito spray, suntan lotion and nail polish remover!! Needless to say we had a little chat! Later that same morning I found him in his room with virtually no clothes on applying tatoos all over his body!!!
And yet that same crazy morning while I was getting his lunch ready he came to tell me that he had made the walls in his room look really cool by decorating them! I asked him what he decorated with - Markers and stickers!!!!
Meanwhile, Mackenzie is quietly playing with the trains in the living room!!! What a great example of boys brains vs girls brains!

Halloween

This year for Halloween, Mackenzie was a glittering, purple witch and Cole was the brave and fierce knight! We actually had a beautiful evening for trick-or-treating and thankfully the wind cooperated and stayed calm for the evening! Here's our guard spider that we made for the front yard!
Halloween wouldn't be complete without a stop at Mrs. Enns' house! This year she was dressed as a spider!
After driving around town to a few places we met up with some friends and trick or treated around the neighbourhood bay. The kids had a blast and came home with bags overflowing with candy!
The two little witches on Halloween!
For some reason I can never seem to upload these pictures in the right order so let's go back a few days before Halloween now! Mackenzie had a great time carving the pumpkins and was right in there taking out all of the goop!
Cole on the other hand wanted nothing to do with it because - you guessed it - "It's too STINKY!" He stayed as far away as he could!
The finished product!
Grandma Ann was able to join Mackenzie at her school for Pumpkin Day! She was so excited to have Grandma there with her. They spent the morning measuring their pumpkins, counting seeds and carving them!
And now we're back to Halloween Night! Carter & Jaxon with Mac & Cole !
