HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

We had a very HAPPY Halloween this year! We started the party off at the pumpkin patch for our Annual Family Picture! Then Micah and Nicole (our nanny) came over for pictures! After that we went out to dinner with friends and then went Trick or Treating! We had a great night! ENJOY the pictures!!

Orion picking a pumpkin!

Orion and a friend he made playing in the straw! It was all over him, he could have "dressed up" as the scarecrow with out needing a costume!

Tunnels!

Our annual family picture! (notice our "adopted" daughter! :-) ) Orion made a friend who wanted to be in our "family" picture! SO SWEET!

Sun glare every year... but I love this picture! Nice stockings mom!

Micah and Nicole (I MEAN THE ROCK STARS!) and Orion!

Thing 1, Thing 2, and the Cat and the Hat of course!

Cheese!

I love the little tail!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! This is only the start....

Orion had a great time helping me make our WIGS for Halloween last night! Orion is going to be the Cat in the Hat (although he doesn't like his hat... the Hatless Cat in the Hat!) He did however enjoy the blue wigs/hats mommy was making for her and daddy to wear! (We will be Thing 1 and Thing 2!)

Our friend Heather (Heea-THUR! as Orion says!) came by to drop off an early Halloween treat bag for Orion!

BOO!

MANY MANY MORE HALLOWEEN PICTURES TO COME!!

Virginia Beach Family Reunion (part one)

Orion's name in the sand AGAIN! We love our little man! Thank you Nanny and Pappy and Grandma and Grandpa West for helping put our little man's name in the sand large enough for the WORLD to see!

My boys!

I love this one!

Last weekend we went to Virginia Beach for our annual West Family Reunion- Great-great Grandma's Birthday Party (HAPPY 86th!) We had a great time with family, enjoyed some awesome food, and Brian and I even had a date night! It was an awesome family weekend! As always we enjoyed our beach front rooms and even though it isn't "in season" and is a little cold we had a great time with the Orion on the beach!

Mom and Steve have ALL the pictures so I will post part 2 soon!

Date Night 10-22-08

Orion had a "date night" with his girl Hannah last week! He loves her! He got a kiss (well many kisses from Hannah! haha!) Orion is a little smoocher! He has already been kissed by 2 girls!! OH NO!! We have our hands full! haha! We had a great time as always with Lindsey and Josh and it was so great to see the kids playing together! Orion was in heaven with all the new toys and his playmate! Enjoy!

I think these two pictures (and BABIES) are so cute!!

Beautiful Hannah!!

I can't believe that when they had their date this time last month Orion was smaller than Hannah! They GROW fast!

Silly face!

I love this one! I wish I didn't cut Hannah's pretty SMILE off!
