Happy Halloween!

Here are our pictures from tonight.  I had intended to do a trial run on costumes and take pictures, but it never happened so we did our best to squeeze it in tonight.  

Here are Captain Jack Sparrow and Tinkerbell.

I just love Hunter's makeup.  He loved it, too.

(made the dress on this one)

And I had to channel my inner stage mom and whip up some dance/ballet/gymnastics hair.

I kinda liked it :)

More Pumpkins

Just more pictures from the pumpkin patch.

The top two are my favorites.

Hunter was too busy playing to do much posing.

So, now it becomes the Peyton show :)

Who ever said the second child doesn't end up with as many photos as the first child?

Certainly won't be the case for mine!

Just keepin' it real :)

Florida Fall

Florida Fall finally arrived last week.  We were able to shut off the air, open the windows and doors, and play outside without sweating.  Today it's back in the 80s so the air is back on, but I hear it'll be nice again come the weekend.

TLC for Daddy

Last week Daddy had kidney stones removed again (THIRD time!).  

So, it was a weekend of doing a lot of laying around.

Pumpkin Patch

We put some fallish clothes on and went up to the pumpkin patch one night last week.  It's about the best we can do for fall colors this time of year.  Everything is still green in Florida!  I have more to share, but we'll start with the ones of the kids together.  I even managed to get my face in one!

Fruit of the Week

Last week Hunter came home from school with the Fruit of the Week award.  Each week the teacher chooses a child in class who has best demonstrated the fruit of the spirit for the week.  I was a little bit shocked to find out the fruit of the week was SELF CONTROL.  That is definitely a trait we are constantly working on.  I'm thrilled to know he's demonstrating it at school.  Good job, Hunter!

Wecoming Another to the Family

The women on Heath's side of the family had a bridal lunch for the newest addition to the family.  While she's been dating Heath's cousin for EIGHT years they're finally sealing the deal in about a month.  We're so excited for their wedding and to have her as a permanent part of the family!

We had lunch at the Gaylord Palms hotel.  It's always fun to go there.

I embroidered some of the dish towels she registered for.

Her soon-to-be mother-in-law wrote her a lovely note.  There may have been a few tears shed.

I had some cute cookies made as favors.  If you're local, they're from Cookie Cutter Creations. Besides being cute, they taste really good!
