Enjoying the Fall Festivities in Colorado

Fall is one of my favorite seasons - here I did my daughter Denise's head shot for her new ventures - "Life With Results" representing Beachbody & Mary Kay - she's such an easy subject....
After Tyler and Ethan got their new costumes on we took part in all the fall festivals that we could attend.

Tyler's school - Littleton Academy was having their Fall Fest so we went to have lots of fun and games.
The teachers spent lots of energy decorating the school.

And alot of the decorations were made by the students.

There was plenty of food and munchies everwhere.

And we went from class to class to participate in the games - here Ethan in a witches hat uses a broom to get the ball in the castle.

Tyler enjoyed the most popular game at the school - pie throwing -

At the teachers!!  Tyler hit Mr Graver right in the chest.

Another favorite was 'finding the marbles in the brains & eyeballs' - Tyler found two marbles and had gooey hands.

Ethan loved getting his hands in the gooey stuff.....
Then we went to Ethan's School - Kinder Care for their fall fest... Here he is with his friend Lance (I mean Batman)
There's nothing like a room full of 4yr old super heroes.....
Ethan played every game in every classroom - and got tons of prizes.
And then there was the cutest little Pirate
And Repunzel was the most popular Princess this year.


Both Tyler and Ethan had a fascination with the the 'Haunted Museum'
We had to keep going in and out of the dark scarry space clutching hands.

Tyler's Pop Star is in contrast with the boys scarry costumes - boys always want to scare and girls want to be pretty......it starts early.
At the end of the evening - even with all the sugar - we had 2 tired kids.

Another time we spent the day in Arvada for their Scarecrow Festival.  Here the Balloon Queen is making a balloon animal for Tyler.

Ethan made friends with Brewster the friendly dragon.

We all went on a Hay Ride through town.
And the 'Bouncy House' is always a favorite with kids.

Here Ethan & Tyler are bouncing with fun.

Every corner had entries for the Scarecrow festival - this was one of our favorite.

And these Super Heroes let off alot of steam running on the lawn and wrestling
Ethan wanted to show how 'tough' he could be.....
Right near Denise's house is a great walking trail with tons beautiful fall colors - here we are in front of the Windmill that marks a homestead that was here in the early 1900s.

Denise and her dog Charlie (a girl) and Tyler and I with Blanche & Lucy.

With the falling leaves - the kids had the most fun running & rolling in the leaves and tossing them in the air.



The weather has been in the high 70's which makes for great leaf fun..
