Gardner Village

I LOVE the tradition of going to Gardner Village to see the Witches!  My Mom and I were finally able to make it last Friday!  We spent hours there!  It was such a relaxing and fun day!!
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Garner Halloween Party!

My Mom once again planned an amazing Halloween Party!

Everyone was able to come!! 

The kiddos! 

The Women!  

We started out with a yummy lunch of Homemade Chili and Scones! 

It was super yummy! 

Then the kids played a Frankenstein bean bag toss! 

Unicorn Hadley throws... 

Iron Man Boston throws... 

Then we decorated Haunted Houses!   

We all had so much fun doing this!  The kids spent forever on their houses! 

Then the kids played Halloween Bingo!! 

Thanks Mom and Dad!  It was a super fun party!! 

Natalia's 30th Birthday!

On October 16th we celebrated my sister Natalia's 30th Birthday. The best part was doing service in her honor for her special day, and hearing how many other people honored her in the same way.  

We gathered at the cemetery for our traditional balloon send off.   

We write a note, attach it to a balloon and send it to Natalia.  

 Natalia's handsome boys Mason and Logan, watch as their notes to their mommy rise in the sky.

I seriously can't believe it was her 30th birthday. I miss her so much.   

After the cemetery we went back to my parents house for Pizza Hut Pizza and Cookie Dough Brownies... two of her favorites. This is the 1st picture with all my parents 11 grandkids! Natalia would love this. She always loved when all the family was together.

9 and 10 Days Old!

October 13th- Cambridge was now 9 days old!

Since the kiddos were all in Halloween shirts, I thought it was the perfect day for a picture!  

And as you can see they were really cooperative ;) 

On Sunday, Jeremy's sister Megan stopped in for a visit!   

We also took Cambridge out for his 1st stroller ride!  (Hadley was dressed as a Ninja!) 

He honestly didn't like it to much! 

Two of his favorite places to be are hanging out on the changing table 

or in the swing!  His brother and sister take REALLY good care of him!!

Four Days with Grandma!

My amazing Mother came out and spent 4 days with us!  The kids and I loved having her here!

Her first day here was spent loving Cambridge and playing games with Boston and Hadley!

The second day she spent loving Cambridge and making Halloween suckers and pretzels!  

The little sneak...  

While my Mom and the kids were off doing something fun, I took the opportunity to get a few pictures of our little man!

Love this one.  Looks like he is singing into a pretend microphone!  

Love those eyes!  

That night we even went for a walk at the park while Boston and Hadley got out some energy out on their bikes!    I had to have a picture of Cambridge's first outing! 

My Mom's 3rd day here was spent giving Cambridge his 1st bath! 

She had lots of help. 

Very awesome helpers indeed! 

1st picture of the 3 of them.  Holy cow... I have 3 kids. 

Big Brother, Big Sister, and Little Brother shirts!  The look on Boston's face is totally priceless!  He loves his brother and sister! 

Also on this day I had flowers delivered to me for the first time in my life... it was quite magical really.  They were from Jeremy's work! 

Can't get enough pictures of him!! 

That night, Matt and Heather and their kids came to visit!!  The girls LOVED to hold Cambridge!  Heather made me this AWESOME Diaper Cake!!  It's to cute to use!! 

Now this picture needs some explaining...  When Jeremy and I were dating... Jeremy was holding Mason and had a royal blowout all over Jeremy's white shirt and tie.  He had to wear one of my Dad's t-shirts home!  So Matt has always been afraid that one of our kids would one day get "revenge."  So he came prepared with a poncho and rubber gloves.  Seriously made my day. 

On the 4th day... this cute little girl was found sitting on top of the couch staring out the window singing "It's Autumn time, it's Autumn time, the leaves are falling down."  Over and Over.  

It was a rainy day... at one point my Mom and I both said "Where's Hadley" to which Boston replied... "outside!"  I look outside to see Hadley having the time of her life out in the rain.  

 

Rainboots, Rain coat, and a  big smile!  This girl knows how to have FUN!

My Mom played some fun Halloween games with the kids!!  We were so sad she had to leave... she kept me sane, and the kids super happy!! We LOVED having her spend 4 days with us!
