The "Greats"

Both Rick and I have parents who live on the other side of town 

They have always been very involved in our kids lives

and now they love to be involved with the GREAT- grandkids.

We invited them all over to spend the evening with us on Halloween,

 so they could see the kids in costume.

Great-grandpa Erickson, holding little Carson (the giraffe)

Unfortunately I didn't capture Great-Grandpa Hemmer holding Carson :(

Great-Grandma Joanne (Hemmer) & Great-grandma Mary (Erickson) 

I had to actually steal the 2 photo's below from my daughter because this grandma totally spaced out and didnt get any good pictures of the grandkids in costume.... I know I know I failed!!!

 Carson's 1st Halloween, isn't he the sweetest thing

Audrey, I love her little "kitty face"

The front of our house, made festive for halloween.

We had 25 kids this year, that's a good year for us!
