All I Need is Love

We had our Valentine's exchange before heading to Eric & Lydia's for a fun party with yummy treats!

Gobble Gobble

We have 3 Thanksgiving celebrations: 1) With my family- a couple of weeks early- when Eric & Lydia are in town 2) With Grampa & Grammie on Thanksgiving morning/afternoon- usually mom cooks AGAIN- she always says she's not going to do as much, but she ALWAYS does- we went to Cracker Barrel for breakfast this year-we didn't get any pictures 3) With Pa & MeMa at Matt's Aunt Lynn's house Thanksgiving evening We do A LOT of eating!! It starts the holiday season off right :0) 1st celebration: I am so thankful for this little boy! Fun times with cousins! Luke's expression seems to say "Who me?". It won't be long until all 3 of them will be getting into mischief together :0)

Yum Yum!

Haven is sporting the mohawk look :0)

This was the first time Luke intentionally smiled at the camera. It is the most precious grin! Celebration #3:

Aunt Lynn has a very fun playroom for all the kiddos!

Maybe Luke will be a better pianist than me!

I'm not sure what Matt said to get this reaction, but I think he warned Aunt GiGi that it would probably show up on the blog :0)

This video is a perfect way to sum up Thanksgiving!!!!

The 5 Minute Parade

Luke & I were extremely late for the Veterans Day parade in Nashville! I believe it is a fairly long parade, but we only got to see 5 min. of it before Luke had to eat. Thankfully our trip to Nashville also included a picnic lunch at the Bicentennial Mall and a visit to The Cupcake Collection (very yummy!). I am so thankful to all of our military for serving our country, and hopefully next year we will get to cheer you on for much longer!

Guess Who?

On October 26th, Luke hosted his first costume party. Everyone showed up to Luke's Pumpkin Patch in their finest non-frightening outfits. Uncle Eric had to work, but we are pretty sure he would've made a great hippie date :0)

Getting ready for the fun evening:
My adorable pumpkins!
Grammie & Angel in beautiful, buzzing, bumblebee outfits :0)
Adorable cousins!!! It is so sweet that Elijah often holds Luke's hand!
These are some of my favorite pictures! They just say fun, fun, fun!!!
The menu: Pumpkin pizzas, cheese sticks, cheese puffs, Cheetos, & a pumpkin shaped spice cake. We also had cute MoonPie owls and caramel apples to send home.

This little bear was in tip-top shape!Everyone was a GREAT sport & joined in the CrAzY party games! (Maybe it helped that their were prizes :0))

This little pumpkin was soooooo partied out!

There was LOTS of laughter! I hope everyone is thinking about what they want to be next year :0)
