Halloween Fun
Last week for Family Night we thought it would be fun to get some decorations up. We decided that we would make a couple of scarecrows to sit by our front door. It was fun for Micah and I but Jackson and Lacey LOVED it! We saved some newspapers from the few days before and Jackson crumpled a piece at a time and threw them on the floor around Lacey.
Every time a piece of crumpled newspaper came flying Lacey’s way she would laugh uncontrollably which set Jackson off too. They were really enjoying each other.
Here is our final product.
The other day Jackson went to get the mail with me and there was a little town newspaper on the driveway… He picked it up, removed the rubber band while he was running inside, and started taking the newspaper apart piece by piece and crumpling each page! He was so proud of himself and was missing Lacey’s laughter (she was napping) … he asked if he could go wake her up and was so sad when I told him she needed rest and he needed to clean up the mess he just made! What a mean mom!
Sarah – I love your little family. That picture of Lacey laughing made me laugh… so I can only imagine what it was like with the live version! Great scarecrows too!

What a fun time. There is nothing more gratifying than watching your children enjoy each other – even when they are grown-ups! The scarecrow is very cute, and looks vaguely like Micah. Maybe it is the jeans, shoes and sitting position. He is a ventriloquist?
Great job with the scarecrows. I can’t wait until Tyson and Craig can play more together. Right now Craig just smiles and perks up every time big brother Tyson comes around.
