It's party time!

Halloween was a big holiday this year. Allie absolutely knew what she wanted to be with no changing her mind or flip flopping costumes. 1st was her Halloween parade at Preschool. 2nd she went to her playgroup Halloween party, and finally she hosted a "big kids" Halloween party at our house. All this happened before we even did any trick or treating! Here are a few pictures from those fun parties! OH....for those of you not familiar with Allie's new love....she was Iron Man for Halloween! She loves superheros!

It's Superhero Time!

So, if you have read the "It's party time" post, you have read that our daughter loves superheros, and since about August, or maybe even before she has wanted to be Iron Man for Halloween. She LOVES Superheros. We are not sure where this passion of hers has come from, but it sure is strong. Iron Man seems to be her favorite, but Spiderman ranks high too. So, we bought her an Iron Man costume probably in early September. I have definitely gotten my moneys worth on this costume, because there's not a week that goes by that she isn't wearing it. She does wear her mask around the house, but on Halloween night, she choose to go without the mask.

Before the trick or treating began, Brian, with Allie's help, craved a great jack o' lantern!






Check out her candy holder...Iron Man mask!


Hunter was a little brown bear. He strolled with Brian the whole time we were out, and finally didn't see what all the hype was about and just went to sleep.


It wouldn't be a picture with Daddy without a silly face!


Back home checking out all her candy



Til' Next Year!

Hunter's Baptism & Pumpkin Farms

Hunter was baptized on October 24th. Granny, Papa and Mimi were all in town. He looked so cute, and did such a great job as Pastor Chris baptized him and walked him around the church. After church, we spent the afternoon at Great Country Farms. Allie really enjoyed herself there!

Hunter was so tired, before we even got the car, he fell asleep.

The 2nd part of our day was spent at Great Country Farms.



Look at all those cute animals.... (Allie, Papa, Teresa, Mimi, Granny!). I won't get a picture like this every year!


Mimi and Allie fishing for gems


She was so excited about riding the cow train


Right before we left Allie found a ladybug. Ladybugs are one of her FAVORITE things!
