Kallee has turned 12! So for her birthday party she invited her family away from home her GYMNAST Family!!!! They all came over to celebrate this special day with Kallee. This year she decided to have a SURVIVOR Birthday party. We had fun seeing who could survive the crazy jungle.
Kallee wanted these jungle Hippo Cupcakes for her party! We love ya girl!
I love to make Halloween crafts with my kids! We make these stuffed ghost every year because this is something I did when I was a little girl. My boys had a blast making these as you can tell because look how many we had to make! Kody made a Mom, Dad, Boy, and a girl for a ghost family! Talk about cute!
We also made pumpkin man, skeleton, and pumpkins for Halloween! Every morning Kody and Kamden would say good morning to their skeleton Man! They would call it Mr. Bones!
Each year we like to carve pumpkins. Kallee made the cute face, Kyle of course did the Virginia Tech pumpkin, and Kody made a cute little face! Kamden didn't want to carve his pumpkin because it would HURT IT!!! So to this day he is saving his pumpkin. I think that is one lucky pumpkin he picked!
This is a Picture of Kyle's candy just from our neighborhood Trick or Treating. This didn't include the ward Trunk or Treat, Ghoulish Downtown Greensboro, or the Library. He had about this much more up in his bedroom from all the events this year! He says it will last him all year until he gets another stash next year! He really means this....He will hardly share with anyone!
Here is a picture of Kallee's candy that she got from Trick or Treating. She likes to divide it up into two piles to see if any of her brothers would like to trade with her. She is always successful with that one! I can't figure out why!!!!
Kody had a blast this Halloween! Everyday he woke up he would ask me how many more days until Halloween! He couldn't wait to get all the candy! This year he wanted to be Duke from GI Joe! He looked adorable and if only you could have seen him run from house to house this year Trick or Treating. He ran as fast as his little legs could carry him! That was my favorite part of the night was watching him run and ring each door bell. His entire face sparkled when they gave him a treat! Kody was adorable this year!
Our neighborhood is the perfect spot for Trick or Treating. The houses are close together and there is a lot of houses. The people here give you a hand full and not just one piece. So Mike and I have to join in on the fun. We didn't want to be short so we bought plenty of candy. Each year we have over a 150 Trick or Treaters come visit us!
Even Kallee this year dressed up and joined in the fun. She had a blast getting all the yummy treats. She usually eats her entire share of candy within the first week. This year she got more so it actually lasted a little bit longer but not by much! Just last night she dumped her bag out and was bummed because all the good stuff was gone. She was left with her seconds but decided she would just have to get more next year to last her a little longer! The best part is....You can't even tell she ate it all. Thanks to Gymnastics she burns it all off and could even use a little more!
Kyle this year wanted to be a Stars War character and so that is just what he was. Let me tell you he was the biggest trick or treater in our house. After we thought we were all done he talked his dad into going up the hill and go go go until everyone turned off their lights. He did exactly that. I have never seen so much candy in my life from Trick or Treating. He went to several different Halloween parties so it really added up. Halloween Night was the biggest candy night ever! 
Check this out!!! How cute is Baby Kamden wearing his bat costume! This is his first year ever that he actually wanted to wear a costume! In the past, we either tortured him by making him wear it for at least a picture or bribing him. But this year he wanted to wear a costume! WOW was I ever excited. Only being 2 years old he new exactly what to say and couldn't believe just by saying a couple words that people would actually give him candy. This was is best night in his whole life. On top of that Mom even let him eat a ton of it!!!! He was nothing but SMILES on Halloween!
Every year for Halloween our family always has to ghost someone in our neighborhood. So this year we decided to put it to work. The kids choose two different families and ghosted them. The funny part was the got busted on Kallee's friend Jessie. They are from a different country so didn't know how this works. So when they opened the door they first thought it was a bomb or something strange. They ran in and got a baseball bat and came looking for the person who did this. Well, the scarey part was Kallee and Kyle where hiding behind there car and so Jesse's dad came around and found them. They all have never laughed so hard before. Kallee and Kyle will never forget their hearts pounding so fast and this family screamed and even came looking for them with a baseball bat. YIKES! But it ended up being all good and for sure this GHOSTING will never be forgotten!
Kerestes Family ready to go Trick or Treating!
Happy Halloween!
Kerestes Family at the Library Halloween Party! We had so much fun! We played games, won prizes, treats, and even ate popcorn! They had it during the morning when the kids didn't have school. The library was decorated and even had a firetruck for the kids to see! Afterwards, we went to Krispy Kreme and each ate an orange pumpkin doughnut! Yummy! We enjoyed the day together!
Kallee made this Haunted House at Activity Day Girls! Way to go Kallee!
Kyle you had a great Football season playing for the COWBOYS! You learned how to tackle and run really fast!!!! You made a lot of great friends and many memories! 
Today Kyle was your last Football game for the Season! Your team didn't make it to the playoff championship game but you guys game them a good run. You almost did it until the last play was called back and they made a touchdown! But you walked away with your head held high!
