Halloween pics

carving pumpkins
painting pumpkins decorating sugar cookies with Grandma Beatty

this is how Jake decided he needed to eat his cookie.

Cute little cowgirl and giraffe

the trick or treating party

We were lucky this year to go trick or treating with friends and my mom. Too bad I didn't get a shot of Jake from behind. The giraffe constume had this big padded bum that would shake from side to side when he walked. It was so funny! Now I will be rationing candy out for the next two months and sneeking some to the garbage as well!

Birthday Babes

yay presents!
Cute cousins!
Thanks Aunt Shelly for the #5 and #2 tee's.
ahh....this boy finally got a train!

Sorry I didn't get pics of them with all the lovely gifts they got, but thanks so much everyone - they love them all.
Spider cake - since their party was so close to Halloween I decided why not!

Two candles on the front for Jake and five on the back for Carly.

Not sure black frosting was the best choice:)

Their birthdays are a fun time, but always a little sad to see them grow-up. I sure do love these two little sweeties!

Carly's party with her friends will be on Friday so more birthday pics to come!
