Halloween Fun

We had so much fun celebrating Halloween this year!! 

Both Connor & Zennon had class parties, pumpkin carving and trick or treating!

 

Pumpkin Carving!!

 Daddy got out the power tools for Rylinn's special pumpkin... 

Connor carved most of his pumpkin all by himself this year!

Zennon tried..... 

then Ga April helped! 

 All finished Connor

All finished Zennon

All finished Rylinn

We went to our friends to go trick or treat! 

All the kids!!

Zennon and his best friend Josie

aka - Red Power Ranger & Olaf

 The older kids went so fast we could barely keep up with them!

Sorting & Trading candy:)

 That is too much candy for 1 kid!!!

My three loves!

Steeler Football Player, Lady Bug & Red Power Ranger

Fall is by far one of my favorite times of the year! 

My Birthday, Football, Halloween, Pumpkins, Leaves changing colors!!! 

I guess I just LOVE fall!

Connor Halloween Party

Marching in his school Halloween Parade!

We had some arts & crafts and enjoyed some yummy (healthy) snacks..

then they were outside to burn some energy and play some games..

Zennon Halloween Party

Zennon's 1st Halloween Class Party!!

Parading in with his class..

 Playing some games

 With some of his class, showing off all the songs they know!!

 One last game, rocking out some ping pong with balloons and homemade paddles!

Little Boo @ the zoo

Zennon was super excited to take Rylinn with him to her 1st ever Little Boo @ the Zoo..  This was most likely his last year (insert sad face here! - since he will be enrolled full time in school next fall).  I'm sure you will agree - there is something so incredibly adorable about a little peanut all dressed up for Halloween...What's not to Love?

All ready to go in!

Our little Lady Bug & Power Ranger

 A little polar bear fun!

Lion!

 Daddy's Favorite - The Wolves!!

Zennon was feeling extra photogenic

wanted his picture with EVERYTHING!!

two of my three babies!!!

Giggles

This little pumpkin has the cutest little giggle I have ever heard

Ok, let's be honest her big brother's probably had the most adorable giggle too - but for real that seems like it was forever ago :(

I won't bore you will any more details  - just soak in the cuteness of this video!

Zennon was excited

What little boy counts down the days until he gets to visit the dentist...That would be our littlest man Zennon!  He has always wanted to see what is was all about.. Is it because Connor got "prizes" when he gets a check up?  Or was it because he got a new toothbrush, toothpaste and floss?  Was it because I bragged to Daddy he was cavity free?  I don't understand how going to the dentist could be something so thrilling to a little one..  I was always told to "wait until they were older - so they were not scared" - that my friends, was something we did not have to worry about. 

This kid was a pro!

The big 30!

Mommy had a nice long weekend full of birthday festivities!!  I spent time with family and friends.  Made my 30th a special time..

We started on Friday evening!  Went up to visit Gigi - have dinner, presents and cake!

I adore this picture I caught of my Nana (Gigi) and Rylinn

After dinner we went to GiGi's house for presents and dessert.

 I had a lot of help to blow out my candles this year!!

(Good thing - I don't think I could of done it alone)

 This sweet thing was super excited to be a part of mommy's birthday!!

Saturday

Our friends threw a Halloween Party!

What's not to love about getting dressed up and partying with friends!

 Eric & I went as "Deflategate" otherwise known as Tom Brady & Gisele Bundchen

Second Grade Mommies!!

Our friends got me a cake and sang Happy Birthday to me at midnight! 

Nothing like making a girl feel special!

Sunday

we relaxed at home and watched football!  Our parents came over for dinner, so I did not have to cook or clean up (which is always a nice change)..

Quarterback

Little video of Connor playing QB!

Connor's last time running thru the tunnel in flag football.

Next season - tackle/pads

Zennon wanted to hold his sister on the field..

And on the stands.
