Tricks n Treats!

November 2nd, 2009

This year we celebrated Avery’s first Halloween in style with some awesome Raggedy Ann and Andy costumes. Avery didn’t mind getting dressed up, however, it took her a while to get used to mommy and daddy’s new look. After putting our wigs on in front of her (several times) she finally figured it out, LOL! We also had a great time celebrating with our new friends (and soon to be neighbors) Todd, Leslie and Lauren Bazin. Since their house was not finished yet, we invited them over for dinner and maybe some trick-r-treating on our street.

Avery’s expression says it all… ummmm who are you people?!?

Avery really liked the decorations we used on our front porch. Here’s her spoooooky face!!

This was a great shot with Todd and Lauren. We hung out on the front porch taking pics and talking to neighbors, and ended up missing our window to walk the street! The girls got super hungry so we made some bottles and also fired up the grill for the big people. Our house had a few trick-r-treaters this year, however, there’s a ton of candy left over!

One last pic of Avery and Lauren meeting for the second time. Lauren is 2 months older than Avery, so Aves got to see Lauren’s excellent crawling technique in action!

The Lellis Family comes to H-town!

November 1st, 2009

Our good friends Andrew, Nicole, Sarah and Brendan came in from Austin to visit a few weekends ago. Only a couple of the pics ended up being blog worthy, so I’m posting the nice ones below. All the kiddos had a wee bit of energy, which made most of the pics blurry! Hmmm… maybe Santa needs to bring daddy a new camera??? LOL. So we fired up the grill and had a great time watching everyone play together. It was also recently Brendan’s 1st b-day, so we opened some presents and had lots of fun!

Everyone poses for a quick pic after opening gifts…

Avery wasn’t sure what to think about this new gift opening ritual… but based on her love of wrapping paper, we think Christmas should be pretty entertaining!

Andrew made quick friends with Avery, while Brendan tried to get our attention in the background. LOL.
