Daily: Halloween 2014

Saturday, November 1, 2014

Yesterday we celebrated Halloween with our sick little Simba; Jet has been under the weather the last week, so it goes with out saying it was a quiet Halloween night in for us. It got even quieter when we we only had 13 kids at our door (which actually beats last years 4). The weather was beautiful, so it surprised me that we had so few kids.... next year we will go out the old fashioned way (no malls for us).  Jet was happy to hand out candy to the few kids that came to our door, he wasn't all too interested in the candy... and no I don't think I have some awesome kid who doesn't like candy, I tricked him and put banana bread in a chocolate bar rapper, clearly he isn't a fan of my banana bread because he didn't ask for another chocolate the rest of the night..... am I terrible for holding out on candy with my child?!? LOL I just know he gets it from so many other places and people.... ;)

Here are a couple pics of my sweet little man, those markings on his face are supposed to be whiskers.  He really wasn't all to amused with the whole premise of dressing up in silly costumes.... I think next year Halloween will mean a little more to him!!!

riding trains...

Thursday, October 9, 2014

On one of our last days in AZ,  we  took Jet to the McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park in Scottsdale... he loved the train....the look of uncertainty and excitement filled his face as we rode through the park...

....so much fun! They also had a fun carousel and huge indoor train model museum to check out too!

...we are on a little holiday this week, and it couldn't have come at a better time!! We are getting in some major rest and relaxation this week, and I am enjoying the company of my two favourite people!! I am hoping to post more of an update sometime soon... possibly in the next few days.... no promises though.... it might just be some picture updates!

PS- this pic was actually taken in Sedona.... Jet had just woken up from his car ride nap.... hence the unimpressed expression.... but seriously, Sedona is stunning!!


Happy Friday...

Friday, September 12, 2014

I thought I would do a little flashback today to a warmer afternoon only a few weeks back..... 


...after this week, I am pretty sure days like the one featured above are behind us for another year....we are wearing much warmer clothing and spending lots of time inside this week..... some of us even have snow.... :(

Wishing you all a warm weekend.... the sun should be shining the next few days.... enjoy it!!

Monday, September 8, 2014

Dierks rang in his 1st Birthday with his own cake smash (complete with home-made cake made by his mama!!)!! Jet got involved at the end, and Grandma Horne was in there with her phone taking videos the whole way!! 

There wasn't much edible cake left when these two were finished.... I think they liked the cake!!!
