seven

C.J. is seven, holy moly, how is he that old already? He had such a fun baseball party that included a homerun durby, sunflower seed spitting, hotdogs, and cracker jacks.  The best party was a huge room for all of these boys to run around in.  It was such a fun time!

Breakfast in bed included chocolate chip pancakes, C.J.'s favorite

He was so excited to get a flash rider for his Birthday.

Baseball cake and cupcakes, that he didn't even eat, he was to excited to try out his new toy.

He spent the rest of his day doing this...

G&G Thalman stopped by for a birthday visit, and of course grandpa had to try out the new toy

can you see Jake totally crashing this picture?  crazy dog

Happy birthday to my most favorite boy in the world,  We love you so much!

Halloween 2012

We had such a fun Halloween this year, as usual we carved pumpkins, made homemade rootbeer with dry ice, went trick or treating and ate way to much candy. What can be better?

Our cute Minnie Mouse that was still wearing her costume 3 days post the holiday.

And their off.  Happy Halloween!

A few days befor Halloween we celebrated Tom's Birthday.  Madi made a cake for him, she is becoming the resident baker around our house.

We partied in style.

Emma and Madison performed in a Halloween Variety Show.  Emma was in the Monster Mash and Madison was a Scarecrow.

Pumpkin Patch

 We love the fall and all that comes with it.  We enjoyed our yearly trip to the pumpkin patch.

 The weather was so nice it felt like we were hunting for pumpkins in the middle of July, I can't complain though, it has been wonderful.  I was so glad that we had some muscle to pack the pumpkins this year, because the kids were all about finding the biggest pumpkin to carve.

 See the bright red cheeks, proof that it was really warm.

 

Don't they look thrilled? We really did have a great time and notice all the bling on little sister, bracelets and necklaces are definitely her thing lately.
