Halloween a little late...

A little late posting these...but here are our Halloween pictures.  We went to a party at our park district and the kids had a great time...

 Brayden's Halloween party at preschool!  They sang songs, sadly it was too cold for the parade but they were all so stinkin cute!

 Trick or Treating time!!!!!  We had a great time trick or treating and opening our halloween gifts...

 Mummy dogs :)

 Let's get some candy!!!!

 Brother love

 Marshall wanted every part of knocking at getting candy...just like big brother!

Marshall is ONE

Happy Birthday Marshall!!!  Little Marshall turned one on October 26.  And although we already had a big party we of course had to celebrate him on his day.  So we started out the morning that Friday with cinnamon rolls (a little tradition)

Then for dinner we had a giant fiesta and yummy cake!

We wanted to take Marshall to the choo-choo restaurant but we knew a Friday night would be CraZY...so we waited until Saturday.  I looked up the train schedule...and Aaron and I made a big deal that we were going to ride the train to the choo-choo restaurant....well the train ride went great...

 But...WORST mom ever...the choo-choo place closes at 3....so we were bummed.  But we had fun at Leona's and celebrated Marshall!

As Brayden put it...we will try again next weekend!

Birthday festivities part one...

It has been a busy few weeks of celebrating our two little men around here.  Saturday before Brayden's birthday there was a firehouse open house....we had such a fun time.  They got to into a fire engine, ambulance, ride on police ATVs and more.  They also got to see a car get cut open and of course we enjoyed plenty of free food....here are some pics...

 On Sunday, it was Brayden's 3rd Birthday.  He woke up in the morning to a path leading to his cinnamon rolls and gifts...

 We also enjoyed getting packages in the mail all week...I tell you what October must be their favorite month...

 We also carve pumpkins while my family was in town.  The kids were so funny...Brayden wanted nothing to do with the "pumpkin guts" he just told me they were gross...and Marshall, well he was not too sure either.  So we, I mean--I, ended up carving the pumpkin.

 His ear protection came...so the shop vac is in full motion!

 We popped popcorn from the ear that Grandma brought from Kentucky....it was delicious!

 The boys got a tool bench from Grandma, Great papa, Aunt Beans and Roger...

 The big party was on Oct 21....we lucked out and had WONDERFUL weather!!  It was like 70 degrees...we had such a great time!  We are so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends

 What a mess!!!

 So tired...

The festivities are still continuing this weekend....we had cinnamon rolls yesterday morning for Marshall's 1st birthday and then a little fiesta last night...but we are headed to the Choo-Choo restaurant this weekend...so more pictures to come from his special celebrations!
