We really enjoyed celebrating Halloween with Everett yesterday. We started the day by attending the State Marching Band Finals to cheer Uncle Dylan on! The Marching Woodmen took 2nd place in the State and we were really happy we could be there to see it! Yet another moment that made mommy so happy to be home. I love my little brother so much!
After that it was on to Halloween fun...
After searching the south side for the perfect pirate costume we discovered that there were none. Apparently kids dont start dressing up as pirates until a little later. So I decided I could settle for something a little more age appropriate. He's only a 'baby' for a couple of years, you know? We found a really cute Pooh Bear costume at the Disney store, which thrilled Daddy because I'm not one for branded stuff. Everett melted my heart in it though, and I'm so glad we picked it! Adorable. We made the rounds to see Mamaw & Papaw, Aunt Suzie, The Rothkopfs and Grandma & Grandpa. We even got home in time to pass out some candy and relax. Gotta love that!
Getting ready to make the trick or treating rounds!!
Cheesing in his costume. The leaves looked so pretty that day!
Aunt Suzie gave Everett a special Halloween treat bag, fun!
Everett & Auntie Em were both ready to party!

Daddy and his buddy
Also Daddy and Ev carved our pumpkin together at the beginning of the week. Everett wasnt quite sure what to think. He certainly didn't like touching the gooey insides!
We are trying to spend as much time outside with Everett as we can before the cold weather hits! This week he and I headed to the park to swing and play in the leaves. He's such a great running around buddy.
That's just a bit of what's been going on around here. The house is getting a face lift in the next couple of weeks. We just got new gutters and the new windows should be in hopefully by this time next week. Exciting! That way we'll be all warm when we cuddle up on the couch together when the snow comes. Can you tell we're actually anxious for winter at our house? Its been too long since Brian and I have had a real winter. And we cant wait to share it with our little man.
Love you all
