Halloween Fun

What a fun October the Breuker family had! I can't believe it is already over! That means the holidays are right around the corner! Hard to believe when we have 60 degree weather for Halloween!
Halloween was so much fun this year! Dakota made the cutest frog! However, we had a little frog that said "Rawer." Kota filled his entire pumpkin up with goodies! I am so glad Dakota loves to brush his teeth otherwise I think his teeth may just rot out!! LOL!
Our Halloween actually started last weekend with two costume parties! We had so much fun. Our first party was at jennelle and Andy Cook's house and our next was at Rick and Heidi Brouwer's. Bryan and I dressed up as Popeye and Olive Oyl. Yes, my hair was even dyed black! I looked a little weird. I know why I was given the gift of blond hair! LOL! Bryan's costume was so great that he even won the best costume award at the Brouwer party. We are already trying to think of another great costume for next year!
On Thursday Dakota went trunk or treating with Grandma Viening. He went from trunk to trunk at Grandma's work. He had lots of fun! I think his favorite candy was the suckers he got because he started eating them with the wrapper on! We also went to trick or treat at Uncle Jer, Aunt Kim and Corbin's house.
Halloween day was a busy one! We began our trick or treating in the morning with Aunt Kim and Corbin. We went to visit Aunt Ruth, The Reitveld family, and The Driesenga family. In the Afternoon Kota and Mommy went to school/work for a Halloween bash! Kota had lots of fun with his friends playing games, doing crafts, and winning prizes. In the evening we went trick or treating again. We visited the neighboers, Mary and Jason, Carolynn, and Jamie. They all had little treats for Dakota. We then went to visit Great Grandma Nienhuis and Nana and Papa Myaard. Dakota loves his cars he got from Papa and Nana.
It was a fun , but very busy Halloween! We can't til next year.

update

It has been awhile since I last posted a blog. I thought I should update everyone on what is going on in the Breuker Household......Not much!! Actually we have just been busy gearing up for the fall and saying goodbye to summer. It is sad, but I am already excited to put up the Christmas decorations. I told Bryan I would at least wait til November! LOL!
Dakota has been such a hoot lately! He is our entertainment! Kota Bear is talking up a storm!!! He loves saying car, mama, dada, papa, side, eat, ease (please), vroom vroom, and many more words that we just don't quit know what he is saying! Kota loves to play outside. Right now give him a pile of leaves and he is a happy boy! Dakota also had a great time picking out his pumpkin. Now he can't wait to carve it. I will let you know how that goes. We have also been on lots of play dates lately. Dakota loves playing with Mya, Naomi, and Bradon! Mya and Kota love to wrestle.... they think they are big stuff and have sooooo much fun with each other!
We have had a great October so far and are looking forward to Halloween!

Motherhood

Motherhood is such an amazing thing! This weekend I went to a motherhood conference in Grand Rapids. I went with Kim and some moms from Hamilton. We had a great time. As a mom I know that there are times when you need a break. I got that this past weekend! I am now recharged and ready to go! I can now refocus and be the best mom I can be. I had some great classes and wonderful key note speakers! Ken Davis......Hilarious!!! I think the best class I took was about organizing and getting my ducks in a row. I can do that.....Right? I am going to start planning and organizing our lives. This is eventually going to save me time and hopefully money when it comes to meal planning. This concept makes me excited because then I get more time with my baby!
