We spent the day at Lagoon yesterday for Frightmares. I loooooove Frightmares, its my favorite Lagoon trip of the year.
Waiting for the roller coaster to go over them
Whadda bunch a bugs
On the swings
I didn't think we would be able to this year but my adorable brother called and said that is adorable sister-in-law had extra family passes if we would like to go. He even worked it out so that Coco, Papa and Boo-Boo could go too.

So excited for a stick of meat
We got to spend the day with Raja, Rustie, Amber (AKA Auntie Deadeye), Brigette, and Eva. Chelsea adoooooores Eva. Karen and Anna came a little bit later. It was really neat to get to spend time with them. My brother married into an amazing family!

I wore a spider ring the ENTIRE day
In front of the gnome house
All Chelsea cared about was seeing the fairy
On Bombara
We hung out for awhile and rode some ride, did the trick-or-treating thing and the maze (Zach was really excited for the maze) Then we went for the shows. I can only speak for myself but I don't care about anything else when we go for Frightmares, I want to see the shows. Mainly Hackenslash and The Classic Monsters. This isn't a bias either, knowing someone in Hackenslash is just a total bonus! And I have always loved Halloween, mostly classic monsters. Then you have classic monsters singing and dancing?!? YEAH, I'm in!

We usually see more shows but this time we only got to see the 2. The other shows are fantastic also!

Brandon is such a chick magnet.
The classic monsters! Love it!

If you get a chance to go, I highly recommend it! It is a blast!
Last night we had a bbq at the farm. I was pretty excited about it. I love hanging out at the farm. Its fun and happy and just has a carefree feeling. I didn't take any picture, even though I carried my camera around all night. My BFF was kind enough to send me the pics she took though.
Brandon hurt his knee at the Dirty Dash yesterday. As someone with regular knee problems I have tried to be extra considerate. I may have to stop....
Last night:
Me: would you like to try me knee brace? It might help.
Brandon: do you think it would fit? My legs are smaller then yours.
Me: (sigh.) You can try...
Brandon: (puts it on.) Actually its kinda tight, I didn't realize my leg was so fat.
Me: (silent)
Brandon: maybe I should stop talking...
Today:
Brandon limping along behind everyone.
Me: now you know how I feel 60% of the time.
Brandon: I'm pretty sure mine is worse then yours is.
Me: of course it is. You are a man.

Today is my favorite sister in the whole worlds birthday. We had dinner at my moms to celebrate.
Chelsea with Patches. I think this is the first time Patches has LET Chels hold her.
KayeLynn loves ladybugs so I made her a ladybug cake. Its pink and purple but you cant tell in the picture.
KayeLynn was sweet enough to share her party with Brandon. He was in Denver and missed his own party.
So I made KayeLynn a cake and I made Brandon a cake.
Brandons train cake. Its not perfect but its freehanded and I'm out of practice.
Chelsea choose the design for Brandons cake. She decided he would like a train or a guitar. The guitar didn't make a TON of sense so we went with the train. Even added coal in the back!
My tech-driven family all on their phones.
Brandon on his phone and Zach on his DS.
Brandon found a baby.
One of Rajas really good friends was there with his new tiny baby. She is about a month old. She was passed all around. And she was a good sport about it! So adorable. She is a month old and still smaller then either of my kids when they were born.
Candles!
SOOOO many candles!
Ozzy loves Coco and doesn't love me!
HAHA! Rajas gift box.
That is FUNNY stuff!
I hope that KayeLynn had a wonderful amazing birthday. She deserves it. She is an amazing and sweet person. I am lucky and proud that you are my sister. I love you!
