Our little models, Kennedy and Caroline

Kennedy and Caroline were ready for church amazingly early today so we decided to take a few photos before we left. Aren't they just so cute. Caroline kept coming up with new poses and wanted more and more pictures taken. Is this a sign of things to come?

EEEWWW it's Halloween!!

Halloween is always a huge event at the McDonald house. At least it is for Holli and the two younger kids. This year was no different. We had a great time dressing up in our costumes and trick or treating and having fun all night. Some of us even had more than one costume to choose from. We had a great time at the annual Scharman Halloween party at Grandpa Brent and Grandma Jan's house. It was complete chaos as always but once again we have wonderful memories we will cherish! Hope everyone had a safe night and made a killing on the amount of candy you all collected!!

Raking leaves at Grammy and Poppy's house

We decided to spend our Saturday raking leaves as a family. We spent a total of 6 1/2 hours going to three different houses and working out fingers to the bones. The kids each put some serious effort into it and everyone was a huge help. We are proud of how hard they all worked. The yards all looked great when we were finished with them!

Carving Pumpkins!!

We had our Annual pumpkin carving with Grandpa Brent and Grandma Jan tonight. We had so much fun. Grandma Jan was a serious trooper to have tons of kids with carving knifes and pumpkin "guts" flying everywhere in the house! Can you say total chaos? We have a few serious Michelangelo's in our family. We had some great sculpting and carving to create some amazing jack-o-lanterns!! Thanks grandma and grandpa for the Halloween memories!!
