Happy Halloween!

These pics of the cutest octopus and elephant are from the fall festival Saturday. Tonight we're going to do a little house to house trick or treating! Thanks Grandma & Grandpa M for the awesome treat bag. You can't see in these pics, but Nolan's name is embroidered on there!!! I'll hopefully have lots more pictures to share tomorrow! Happy Trick or Treating!

Happy Birthday Drew!

Our friends, Nadia and Drew, recently bought a house here in town and moved from base...whoo hoo! Saturday they hosted a 30th birthday party for Drew as well as a housewarming party. Their house is GORGEOUS and decorated beautifully. Nadia has an eye for home decor and their whole house shows it. Nolan actually opted not to eat ice cream and cake and instead spent the entire time playing with Tristan's trucks and cars. It was a great time, thanks Morgan's!!!
This is the cake that Drew's mom, Pam, made. The edible photo (of Drew as little guy) was done at the bakery, but the rest she made. YUMMY!

Nadia, Cheyna, and myself:Leanne and baby Gwen:

I love this picture, it was right after Tristan helped Drew blow out the candles on the cake.

Uncle Nathan

Uncle Nathan (Brian's brother) is taking a 4 week class at Hurlburt Field AFB, which is about 30 minutes from where we live. We met him for dinner one week night when he first arrived, but I didn't get any good pictures. That happens alot when I am out to dinner with Nolan, he usually takes up most of my energy just keeping him behaved! Anyway, Sunday Nolan and I had Uncle Nathan over for some chili and cornbread. Nolan was beside himself and had a blast showing off for Nathan and running around the yard with him. I loved having some adult conversation and hearing about all the fun night life that goes on around here. I vaguely remember a time when I could go out and stay out as late as I wanted without worry or guilt...was it real or am I imagining it? I'm totally kidding, I wouldn't trade what I have for all the money in the world. Anyway, it was an awesome afternoon and we're so glad we got to hang out with Nathan!
