Happy Halloween!



This month has been really crazy for us. We have been incredibly busy as usual for us but then you throw in Tech football games, birthday parties, and just life in general, we never stop! So this year I started on the costumes early, way early for me since pretty much everything I do is last minute!

I tried to get Landon to be the fifties guy and match Gracie, but instead this is what I got "Mom, they don't do anything cool, like carry a gun or . . ." So an army man it is. I looked for a Coast Guard costume (if there even is such a thing) because Landon thinks his cousin Joey who is in the Coast Guard is about the coolest person ever--next to his dad (sorry Joey!). No luck with that one so I hunted all over town for green camo fabric and this is it!

Gracie has got to be the cutest--as any mom would say. Last year she was Raggedy Ann and she carried an Andy doll that my grandmother made for her when she was born--really cute. So this year it was hard to top, but I think we did just as well. She is pretty cute and she knows it. A special thanks to my mom for spending hours to make my kids look great!

Too cute! They looked adorable in their costumes! It was fun having Gracie in class yesterday, she is so sweet. She was also one of the only ones who would stand still while we took her picture! Love your blog!

Way too cute! I wish we lived closer to each other so the kids could have gotten together for Halloween! That is so precious that Landon thinks Joey is cool - I had no idea. I'll have to make sure Joey reads this. We've got to see you guys soon!
