Due to Christmas present buying etc. my blogging has been less than amazing lately. I will try to do better.
Last week we made our way back to Disneyworld with the kids. We like to completely avoid it during the hot yucky months of the summer and wait until Fall (hah) when the crowds leave and the weather is nicer. It was soo fun! We spent three days at three different parks, Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom, and MGM. 
Our friends hadn't ever been to Disneyworld and came with us, which was soo fun! The kids had the best time together, especially in our adjoining hotel rooms where they just ran circles from room to room:)
This is why it is called Magic Kingdom....anywhere you can get four kids under four to sleep at the same time is definately magical. It was fun because a few of us adults got to ride some rides too!
Carson's favorite character we met was Handy Manny at MGM
Brynnli wouldnt' touch or go near any of the characters except for giving Mickey and Minnie five, until we got to the princesses and she was in heaven (so was Carson....). See her huge smile? She wasn't scared at all (I'm sure it had something to do with them not wearing huge fake masks...)
Carson still LOVES to dance in the parades and has continued to do it since we returned home. We have at least three or four parades a day here.
Carson's favorite ride was the racecars....
Brynnli's favorite ride was the carousel, she loved it!
Carson and Rick went on this ride at Animal Kingdom and got soaked! IT was pretty chilly outside (ok...like 65 is chilly to us) so luckily we had endless changes of clothes in my diaper bag (for Carson not Rick sadly....)

IT was the closest we will ever get to snow here.....it made me excited for Boise at Christmas in a couple weeks!!
We stayed at a Disney resort this time which we have never done before, and it was pretty fun. The theme was Disney movies, so there were all these huge larger than life statues all over for the kids to play on or look at. IT was a big hit.
We bought season passes so plan on seeing us there again soon, and let us know if you are going, we'll meet you there!!
Our ward at church had a carnival and trunk or treat that night so we headed over there for all kinds of fun. My two favorite things about the night were all the people who kept asking Rick if he was really on duty working........ (doesn't he look cute in his uniform?)
And Carson in his costume. He won a prize for most creative and was SO proud to be a garbage man. I wish you could have all seen him wheeling that can around the parking lot to put his candy in. He was hilarious. Brynnli was going pretty fast herself, but we couldn't keep up.
Brynnli couldn't figure out why she didn't win a prize too, her best friend Izzie won a prize, and then Carson, Brynnli just walked up after that and was like, okay I'm here for mine, she was funny and carried Carson's HUGE BOWL around for like ten minutes with a huge smile on her face.
Carson as the garbage man, on a side note: On Friday morning our garbage man came (who we are on a first name basis with I hesitate to admit), I couldn't convince Carson to put on his costume to show him, but Rick took him out and Carson told him proudly he was going to be a garbage man for halloween, the guy seemed pretty stoked and told Carson he had to be scary because garbage men are scary:)
Grandma and Grandpa Tolbert came with us to the church and were a huge help as usual. Grandma decorated the whole car with decorations she had brought, thanks to the Tolbert store:) It looked great!
Here's some other random Halloween celebrations from the past week:
The preschool Halloween party (the little ones got to come too). 
And our park day Halloween party....it was a little hot in case you can't tell by all the red faces. After this picture my kids stripped their costumes off and put their cool clothes back on.
Carson and Brynnli cleaning out a pumpkin, they were really good at it! (I won't mention about how there was pumpkin matter all over my house for a few days afterward....they had fun)
