Pumpkin Carving

Last weekend, we all got together and my parents' house for some pumpkin carving fun! We carved a total of five pumpkins and they all turned out great!

cheese-literally!

Night Out with Mana and Kenny

Last night we had a night out with Kenny and Mana-we went to eat at the Brazilian Steakhouse, Brazaviva-which was delicious and then we went out to a couple of bars. It was fun, but after eating like that you are just so full! We decided to take some pictures after dinner!

Meeky and Kenny-she is smokin Hot!-Kenny looks good too, it's just that my mana has worked really hard and I think she looks fabulous-keep up the great work!

Me and the boys!

Mana and Jesse-I can't get over how good she looks in these jeans!

Dewberry Farm

Yesterday we went out to Dewberry Farm with the Hippel Family. It was pretty crowded, but it was a beautiful day and I think the kids enjoyed themselves. Here are some shots of our day.

Halloween shirt

Olivia loves the camera, and every chance I get I snap pictures of her, so of course, she got this new Halloween shirt that says boo and I find it an opportunity to snap away! Here she is turning and posing, it cracks me up!

What a big girl!

Jackson's birthday party

Last Sunday was Jackson's 4th birthday and we got to go jump and slide at Jumpin Jacks! Olivia was a big wimp when it came to the slide and made her mommy go up and down 5 or so times (which means I got a hell of a work out) but we had a great time! We love Jackson and are so happy to be able to share in his birthday fun!

Cake time-she got as close as she could to the cake!

Sweet birthday boy!

fun with balls and a slide

baby bows

So, I think this is hilarious. I tried so hard to get her to wear these baby bows when she was a baby, and there was no way-she hated them. Now she has come across them in a drawer and loves them, go figure.
