Halloween!!

We ♥ Halloween!!!! This year felt a little hijacked because of Mexico and the move but we still got out there and had a fun time!! This is our last pic on the steps of our first home. We had happy happy times here.

 I don't know what to say. This is gross. 

We went trick or treating with our cute friends, The Baums. Erin was a lifesaver for real and had the marvelous idea of putting the babies in the wagon. ♥ her

 Kaitlyn was black widow from The Avengers, everyone kept thinking she was a spy kid. What a cutie. 

 

Gotta love those fall leaves! It was beautiful weather.

 When we were all worn out from walking the neighborhood we went to the Baum's and sat around their fire pit whilst the kiddos ran around like crazies fueled by insane amounts of sugar. 

Good times for sure. 

My oh my

We just celebrated our 10 year anniversary in Mexico! Had an absolutely fantastical time. I will post more pictures and document it right after I unpack, get through Halloween, get Kaitlyn ready for her baptism, oh and we are moving next week! It is crazy around here!

 

Happy 8th Kaity Pie!!

Our little Kaitlyn is 8 years old. My oh my. 8 is a big deal so we kind of went all out. 

She wanted to go ice skating and have Fiiz afterwards. It was good times, this little group of girlies are cuties. 

First it was pizza at our house, somehow I didn't get any pictures of that part. Maybe because it was mayhem. Happy mayhem but all the same. 

Afterwards we loaded up all the chickadees and drove them to the ice rink. 

They all traded their shoes in for skates. 

In this moment, they all needed help. Little soft voices all asking. I wondered how Jon and Kate did it. really. I watched the show but still. What the heck. 

 Good thing I had this guy who is kinda a big deal on hockey skates. Without his mad skills this party would not have been. And he's pretty cute too. Bonus.

 Oh Kenz, we miss you being next door. 

 After a couple of hours and quite a few frozen fingers and achy ankles we headed over to Fiiz. Each girl had  a drink of her choice and a sugar cookie. Can you say sugar rush?? I kept hearing that creeping voice from candy crush in my head..."Delicious!"

 Madden and Jackson. Little heart breakers for sure.

 The birthday girl! Her choice: bubblegum. 

 Her bffs

 sweet moments

 The Larsens met us at the rink and joined us for the day. After the party we spent the rest of the day playing games with them. One of our favorite pastimes. 

It was a lot of fun. I know parties like this with my little girl are numbered. I cherished this one.  

Happy Birthday Kaitlyn! We love you ♥
