Daddy’s Birthday!

On November 3rd, we celebrated Jim’s 32nd birthday!  We started the morning with gluten-free pancakes, that Sean and daddy could both eat, and they were a hit!  Yea!! The big celebration was when daddy got home from work.  We surprised him with shrimp, potatoes, salad, Aggie cupcakes for daddy and gluten-free cake balls for Seaner.  We definitely think Sean enjoyed the day more than anybody, since he thought it was his birthday all day long:)  He wouldn’t even let Jim blow out his own candle, since that’s Sean’s favorite thing to do!  It was a special day for an amazing daddy and husband that we are honored to call ours.  We love you Jim and are blessed beyond measure by you!

Arboretum!

This past week, we went to the Arboretum with our good friends Melissa and her twin girls, Natalie and Caroline.  The weather was just perfect and the kids had a great time playing and picnicking!  This year the theme was Cinderella’s Pumpkin Village, with a life size Cinderella Carriage…that Sean didn’t want to have any part of:)  It was truly the perfect day with some of our favorite girls!

Halloween!!

This Halloween, we took Sean to Prestonwood for the annual Fall Festival!  Sean, was a little fireman this year, which was easy to decide, since he thinks about fire trucks all. day. long.  It’s hard to believe that this was our third year at the Fall Festival, and it was the best year yet!
