Halloween and all it brings

Things have been busy around here. Starting to get settled, and finally feel like we belong. Our new ward is GREAT! We feel so welcome after only 2 weeks, and we are very excited about the transition.
We've been enjoying the fall weather finally. Some rain here and there, but mostly gorgeous lovely days filled with leaves changing colors, and autumn starting to manifest itself in every beautiful way possible. My scentsy is in, we're cooking yummy fall dishes, all the decorations are up, football is in full swing, and we are loving it all. We've watched several spooky movies so far, and have several more to get through. We dance every night to our crazy halloween soundtracks, and the kids talk non-stop about how many days till halloween!!!
My belly is starting to grow already. Yes, I realize I'm not far along enough for this, but I have no control over it. I've lost several pounds and yet my tummy is slightly rounding off. My pants feel to tight to button, so I just purchased a BeBand, and I'm in love. I'm convinced my uterus must sit directly behing my belly button(at least this is my excuse for something the size of a large grape causing me to look so chubby!).
Adi and Emi are doing really great sharing their bedroom and we don't ever have any problems at night. Emi sleeps like a rock if Adi ever wakes up to go potty, and they both go to bed so well with the other. 3 beds and 2 1/2 baths really isn't that bad for us...right now:)
Anyway, enough babble, here are some pics.








Emersyn climbing trees with sister. Lucky she doesn't climb as high as her though...




Adi thinks she is a monkey and goes way way way too high! She was way out of arms reach here. She is completely confident however. Wish mamma was!






Movie night party.








Look at the new do!








We went to the temple one Sunday and enjoyed the beautiful grounds with the amazing colors.


This was my attempt at a picture with my kiddo's. Adi really did have a good time, I swear!








There! That's better. I guess she just didn't want to share the lime light:)








Adi looks like she might be contemplating jumping in...hmmm...








We've also done the typical pumpkin patch ordeal, and had quite the good time too. This was with their cousins. They also got to go with a preschool group once too! Lots of pumpkins outside our door right now.



Riding the hayride with the girls.





She stole the pumpkins hat:)








Found her pumpkin. Perfect size.







Grandma got to come once too. Wow...I swear, Adi does smile!





And so does Emersyn!





Oh there is a smile from super girl! This is the Halloween costume she picked this year. Oh I love it. So SO cute!






And you'll have to excuse the quality of the picture, but here they are in their Halloween jammies. It's a tradition that we all get some every year. Last year we got the footies, this year they chose glow in the dark skeletons.









I hope you all have a great Halloween week, only a few more days!!!

Thank you for letting me see some of the fun from Boise. I love all the photos, even when Adi isn't smiling.
