Hunting in Indiana

Daddy got some food for the freezer this weekend when we visited Indiana.
Easton thought the deer was pretty cool, and wanted to give it a hug.
Brady kept panting at it like he does when he sees dogs.

Happy Birthday Brady!!!

Brady turned 1 this weekend! This year has went by so fast, and we can't believe how grown up he is. He is now walking, saying a few words, copying everything we do, and constantly trying to wrestle his brother and dog. He celebrated by having his Nana, Papa, Uncle Curtis, and Aunt Shayla come visit, opening presents, eating cake, and trick-or-treating.

He must be practicing to blow out his candle in this picture.

Nana and Papa brought Easton his birthday presents this weekend too. He was really excited about this fireman outfit. His fire extinguisher even shoots out real water!

Earthquake Cake
Okay, so it was meant to be a baseball cake, but my first ever attempt and stacking two round cakes together didn't go so well. I think I over-extended myself on Easton's cake and just didn't have any creativity or craftiness left for Brady. It is hard to be the 2nd child!

Digging In


Trick-or-Treat!

Easton and Brady were able to go Trick-or-Treating this year. They got a ton of candy and Easton loved putting on a costume. Brady was mostly just along for the ride, but we discovered that he loves suckers!

Easton and Brady Before
Easton's Halloween costume this year was a bat. Whenever anyone asked him what he was going to be for Halloween he always said, "I am going to be, not a baseball bat, but a flying bat!" Brady went as a skunk. The best part about Brady's costume is that my mom made this when my older brother was a child. Most of my family and some of Brady's cousins have worn this for their first Halloween. It began as a cat and my sister added the white stripe to make it a skunk. This costume is over 30 years old!!


Heading out for Candy
We were glad that Papa was here to pull the trick-or-treaters in the wagon. I think he had more fun than the boys and he made sure that they got a lot of candy!


Easton and Brady After
My neighborhood was a good place for trick-or-treating. People were passing out candy by the handfuls! They were also all sitting out on their porches ready for the kids to come by. It was so much fun.
