Happy Halloween!!

So, we bought Braden a really cute monkey suit from Target and he had NOTHING to do with it. Braden was NOT happy, but it is hilarious. Needless to say, we took the monkey suit back. We opted for this little skeleton suit from Old Navy. I figured I would dress him up next year when he's walking and actually able to somewhat enjoy Halloween.

We went to some friend's house for chili and hot dogs and let the kids play. We've got an UNHAPPY astronaut, a skeleton, pumpkins and Woody:) Wish we could have stayed longer! Happy Halloween!!!

We went to play group with a couple of kids from Sunday school on Friday. Braden was convinced Lila and Jack were dogs and wanted to tear their costumes off the whole time:)

A Visit from Mimi

Mom came to visit us this weekend in Nashville! Braden AND Taylor are absolutely crazy about Mimi...he just lights up when she walks in the room. This little guy LOVES life as you can see. He has the sweetest little personality. I told him he was NO child of mama's if he didn't know how to laugh and I tell you...that is all this child does:)

We had a fun weekend filled with shopping and cooking. Mom made some sinful white chocolate macadamia nut cookies that are ALMOST gone. It was so good to have her here! We miss you Mimi! See you at Thanksgiving!!!

Here is a picture of my fall arrangement for my door.

Gatlinburg 2009

Brad and I had our first vacation in over a year and a half this weekend. Sad, I know. Brad's parents kept Braden...so I felt comfortable knowing he would be spoiled all weekend:) We went to Gatlinburg for the weekend with two sweet couples from our Sunday school. Brad and I were talking tonight and he looked at me and said, "You know, I don't think we have laughed that much in like three years"! Ha! So true! We had the best weekend! We didn't really leave the cabin! I felt like we were back in high school. We played Cranium, Uno, Clue, and pool all weekend. It was just what we needed. We are so, so thankful to have such sweet fun friends here in Nashville.

Crockett Park

Today was such a beautiful day! We usually come home after church, put on our jeans and just veg! We decided to take Braden AND Taylor to Crockett Park today to enjoy the weather. Today is my little nephew, John David's, b'day today! Happy Birthday John David!!! We love you!!

Austin's B'day Party

Giddy Up Cowboy:) Our sweet friends from Sunday school celebrated Austin's 2nd b'day this afternoon. Austin is really in to horses right now. We had a great time! Happy B'day Austin!
