Happy Halloween!

the ONLY picture (of a dozen) where Springer wasn't trying to escape!

Our little bunny

Buzz Lightyear
When Carver's costume arrived he put it on and said, "Mama, now I don't have to PLAY Buzz Lightyear, I AM Buzz Lightyear!" And that he has been-for two days now!

A very tired bunny and Buzz Lightyear are sound asleep after a fun filled round through the neighborhood. After a Halloween dinner of monster burgers and slime (green milk) we headed out for trick or treating. Springer bounced along in the wagon and Carver literrally ran down the sidewalks for blocks! He should sleep well tonight! G and I have tried to perform our parental duty of candy tasting. I'll be the one running blocks tomorrow!

Happy Halloween; we hope your day was filled with as many smiles and laughter as ours!

 

Last One!

As soon as I posted I realized this one didn't attach. It's too cute to miss, I think!

 

Hawaii Part II

Carver as a pineapple at the Dole Plantation. They also have the most delicious pineapple ice cream in the world!

Springer enjoying the train ride through the plantation.

The whole gang; including our family, G's sister's family, and Lola's family! How did we all fit?!

As Carver would say "my cousins" : Josh, Molly, Maggie & Jack. He loved his time with them!

 

Aloha (& Mahalo Granddad, Dad & Lola!)

After ten wonderful days in Hawaii, we are home and adjusting to the time as well as weather change. We left Honolulu with sunny, 84* skies and arrived in Atlanta to a cold and rainy 50*. Needless to say we had a wonderful time with our family, spent lots of time at the world's most beautiful beaches and G and I even snuck away to Maui for a few days ( a big thank you to David and Paola, Dad & Lola!). We're still searching for a cd with many more pictures, but until then enjoy these favorites!

And We're Off!

We are still alive and well; it's just been a busy two weeks. We headed out of town for a long weekend in Virginia and now we're preparing to leave for a two week vacation beginning tomorrow. As you can imagine there's lots to pack and plan for when you consider two little ones on a 9+ hour flight. So, in lieu of pictures of the kids (which I just haven't had the time to upload lately) here is a picture of one of our favorite spots in Hawaii and where we hope to spend a lot of time while we're there! There will be lots of news when we return, I am sure! Until then, Aloha!
