Bravo co. banditos and trunk or treat!

The kids before we took off.
Sorry the kids look goofy here but it was the only picture of me that turned out.
Jonathan bobbing for donuts... it was funny! he finally got it after it went around his head a few times.
Natali bobbing for donuts... she just grabbed it with her hands:)
Natali spent half her time running around the gym....
and she spent the other half of her time waving to everyone and saying Hi
I asked Jonathan a question... he is thinking hard:)
My husband looks gooooood:)


Natali found something to play with while we waited for the trunk or treating to start.

Jason's company (Bravo company) had a fun party for the kids. They had the girls in the barracks decorate their rooms if they were going to hand out candy and then part of the hall we had to walk through a haunted house.. or hall:) it was great. the kids both got lots of candy and of course all the ladies were impressed with Jonathan's mustache! We finished up there and then we went on to the dinner part of the party. after that we left to come home and grab a few things then off to the trunk or treat at the church. We played mini golf, tossed bean bags into a pumpkin face, bobbed for donuts, made pumpkin ghosts, and did a cake walk. then outside we went for one of the biggest trunk or treating I have been to. (well last years was bigger but it was still bigger then I have ever been to) the kids loaded up with tons of candy and then it was time for bed.
Sorry no pictures of the Bravo (Bandito) party. No picture taking aloud on base. We all had so much fun though.

painting pumpkins

So I decided to try and have the kids paint their own pumpkins we bought them. they each had 2 but for some reason we could only find one of Natali's pumpkins:( I brought out my paints, gave them each a brush, and set out a garbage bag under them. then I gave them their paints and they went at those pumpkins like it was the coolest thing in the world. they were so focused on their panting jobs and didn't want any help. so I let them do it all by themselves.

Natali got some paint on her nose.

natali's final product...
Jonathan's final product! So pretty! It was fun to do a project with them with out ending up just doing it myself. This is their own creativity! I LOVE IT:) (no messes except for on Nat's nose was made in the making of these pumpkins)
