Team Ostler: Halloween Fun

Halloween Fun

I always have fun doing crafts with my boys. This year we did some fun ones for Halloween. One of the projects that we did was finger painting jack-o-lanterns on sandpaper. It was a cool sensory activity for them and they always enjoy it when we break out the paint. I just had to post this shot of Jimmy's jack-o-lantern. He always manages to make his projects very unique and different. Notice that his has 5 eyes. He was very proud of his creation.

They had a great time carving pumpkins this year, although, they weren't too fond of the toasted pumpkin seeds. Luke kinda liked them. He kept calling them popcorn. And once again Jimmy decided to be a little different than everyone else. He did an alien jack-o-lantern with 3 eyes and no nose. Gotta love his creativity:)

We were at church and during the sacrament I was talking to Luke about Jesus. I told him that Jesus bled and died for us. Luke looked at me with a very concerned look and said, "Did Heavenly Father give Jesus a band-aid when he was bleeding?"

We were about to walk out the door so I told Luke to go potty. He came out of the bathroom saying, "I can't go! The batteries in my pee pee are dead!"

After Ben finished a big meal he said, "my tummy is so big and full I look like Grandpa now!" (sorry dad).

Ben pointed to a picture of the prophet and said, "That's President Monckley!"

We have a saying in our house. It's "you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!" But Ben has his own version of this. He says "you get what you WANT and you don't throw a fit!"

Jimmy said that he is allergic to babies. I asked him how he knew and he said that he gets sick when he smells them.

Ben asked me for another piece of halloween candy and I said, "Mommy is ready for the halloween candy to be gone" and Ben said, "Yea, gone in my mouth!"

We were driving past the gas station sign and Ben said, "I see a lowercase 5 on that sign."

I was talking to Jimmy about election day and asking him if his teacher voted and he said that she was "absent" that day. (I finally realized what he meant. She had just mailed in an absentee ballot.)

Ben put a whole bunch of toilet paper in the garbage and I told him that is a no, no. He said, "no it's a yes, yes!"

I tell Jimmy on a regular basis that needs to talk nicely. He yelled something across the room to me and I gave him the look that said I didn't like the tone of his voice and he said, "I was yelling nicely!"

Jimmy and I are listening to "Give Said the Little Stream" and Jimmy says "How does it talk?" I said "How does what talk?" He said, "The stream, it doesn't have a mouth, how can it talk?"
