Halloween!

November 1, 2013

Well, I just don’t think I could have asked for Halloween to have gone any better!  We had so much fun and my little firetruck and football player loved it!  We barely made it up from naps in time to get over to the parade at 4:00 but we made it.  This picture cracks me up because we were all a little frazzled trying to get there and Maxwell tried to squeeze into the stroller with his firetruck on and, well, it was just funny…

Robert met us at the parade and it was great.  The boys loved seeing all the floats, dancers, cheerleaders and, of course, the fire truck at the end!

Please look at Spencey’s face in that first picture – I hate that it got cut off but he was so excited!  ha!

and my football player even got a football!

High five for that!

The parade ended about 4:30 and the group we were with just decided to start trick-or-treating to get it in before the rain.  Luckily lots of others had the same idea so there were plenty of people all ready to hand out some candy!  Maxwell definitely got the hang of it quickly and got really good at saying “twick ah tweat!”…

trick or treat

but he still wanted me to go up to most houses with him.  Fine by me!  🙂

Spencey just had to check it all out from the stroller…

but then when we stopped by our friend’s house, he got to get out and explore a bit!

Just as we were turning onto the street to head back home, sprinkles started to fall.  We didn’t mind though as we had already done a lot of trick-or-treating and seen plenty of good friends!

We got home just in time to eat some dinner and watch It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!  yay!  Maxwell loved getting to root through his loot…

and discover the joys of Reese’s peanut butter cups!  I asked him that night what his favorite part of Halloween was and his reply?  the chocolate.  Kid after my own heart!  🙂

What a fun, fun Halloween!

Prelude to a party

October 23, 2013

On Sunday of last weekend we had a little family party for this birthday boy…

Things got a little crazy!  ha!  Not really, but we did have fun! Lots of party pictures to come but, before the party, we had a fun weekend.  Spencer got a present from Mrs. Susan…

Jack in the Box!

Robert got his belated birthday present when we got to go to to the AL/AR game while GJ and Daddo kept the boys!

We had a great time and even got to sit in the President’s Box thanks to Ronnie.

VIP ya’ll!  It was really cool and we didn’t even care that the game wasn’t a game at all.  Alabama 54, Arkansas 0!  Roll Tide!

We finished the weekend with a present for Maxwell – GJ brought him a kit to make a Woody Pumpkin!

Soccer finale!

October 22, 2013

On Sunday afternoon, we had our final soccer game of the season.  Maxwell did great and just ran his little heart out!  Coach Robert had the team ready to go for their final showdown against the green team!

Maxwell was really good and running up and down the field.  But, he didn’t care too much about actually kicking the ball!  This picture makes me laugh because it was pretty typical of the games with Maxwell and Riley down at the opposite end just checking things out!

But, he did get up in there and go after the ball a few times!  🙂

After the game (which was totally a Team Blue victory!) Coach handed out trophies to everyone.
