Halloween, 2009

We had a great Halloween. Here we are carving our pumpkins.

Getting ready to go for the big night out...

Ironman, Spiderman, and The Dragon

Getting ready to "trick-or-treat" with cousins...

Some recent, random pics...

Luke, playing t-ball (called "baseball" around here!)
Caleb feeding Paul (probably rocks!) during the baseball game

A preview of Halloween to come...

Yes, he's learned to remove the air conditioning grate and stick various things in (this time, GOOD NIGHT MOON)---all while looking so sweet!

An afternoon walk......what we do best.

A fun day at Oak Mountain...

It's been one year since we were last at Peavine Falls. This time last year the waterfall was nothing more than a small trickle.

It was lots of fun but certainly hard work getting 3 little kids up and down the falls. We took turns with Paul and the backpack, and Luke & Caleb did amazing climbing up and down.

Caleb's birthday celebration TAKE 1...

These are all of Caleb, in his classroom. The birthday celebrations began here, and his teacher kindly got some shots for us.

Caleb's birthday celebration, TAKE 2....

Friday night, we celebrated with the grandparents. Sweetie, Nana, & Pops ate a delicious fish dinner (thanks to Chris, the "best cooker in the world"----so named by Luke) with us and we finished off the last of Sweetie's amazing cupcakes.

Caleb's birthday celebration, TAKE 3...

Last year, we had to cancel Caleb's b'day party because the morning of the big day we awoke to Paul and a 104 degree fever. We were then in the hospital for the next week. So....this year, we had to cancel again!! But, thankfully, it was for rain and nothing so serious.

We still managed to have a good time despite the rain and missing our friends.

Here's the amazing BUZZ LIGHTYEAR cake Sweetie got for us.
