happy halloween from the heinrichs!


We have had a fabulous Halloween!  It seems to have lasted for several weeks.  A few weeks ago, our MOMs Club had a "Trunk-or-Treat" party ... (see a prior post about this party).  Then a few days later, we went to a pumpkin patch.  A week or so after that, we went to a bigger pumpkin patch with our friends.  Last Saturday night, we went to a pumpkin party at the Adams' house. This morning, we went to Halloween at Wiregrass Mall ... and finally, tonight ... we went trick-or-treating!  It has been a full month, but it has been a lot of fun to see how much the kiddos love this time of year!  Colton has been so excited to be an angry bird.  He tells everyone that he's going to be an angry bird and his sister is king pig!
at Wiregrass Mall today ... Colton waited all month for this cookie!
Koki had a sprinkle cookie. 
Then we rode the train together!
It was Koki's first time on the train!  Choo-choo!

Red Angry Bird and King Pig ready to Trick-or-Treat!

Koki's haul ... pretty good!
Colton's booty! He was excited to try some out!


We carved pumpkins this week.  Colton helped to dig out the "pumpkin guts".  He wasn't so sure about that stuff, but he did alright.  Khloe got to dig into her pumpkin.  She liked to touch the guts, but I had to keep her from eating the seeds!  We carved the pumpkins to match the kids' costumes.  King Pig is for Khloe, and Red Angry Bird is for Colton.

Khloe digging into her pumpkin.  She had a pumpkin last year, but this is the first year she got to help!
Digging in!
Ewwww!
Trying out her tasty treat ... 
A good smile for the camera. 
Getting ready to really dig in!
She talked and talked throughout digging it out.

Digging in!
Found the guts! 
Love those giggles! 
... and smiles.
Getting more! 
Such a sweet face.
Making some roasted pumpkin seeds.

We had to get some good outside pictures after we carved them.  I wanted to make sure I had enough photos of my kids.  How'd I do?  Overboard?  Ya think!?! Well, I just love them so much.  I can't get enough!
Cuties with their pumpkins.
Love those faces!
So precious!
With her pumpkin.
Sweet faced boy ... he's so good at schmoozing the camera!

Colton wanted to give Khloe as hug and kiss. :)  
After photo time, we took a family walk and enjoyed the gorgeous weather we've been having!
The night before Halloween ... all conked out.  We've been busy!  I just love her hands behind her head. 

Here is how the pumpkins turned out!  Pretty good, I think.

I'll leave you with a picture that sums up our house this month.  CRAZY!  (and cute!)
