Trick or Treat...golf cart style

We went trick or treating with the Nicolette's. We took the golf cart and we went to houses of people they knew. We had a great time and the weather was perfect.

Zac Brown

The picture above is one that my friend Megan took. The guy to the right of the pole is Zac Brown. I'm sure most of you know who he is, and if you don't I would bet you have heard his songs on the radio. He is a BIG country star. About a month ago I was bringing Owen in to school and this man (didn't know it was him for sure) held the door open for the boys and I. I thought to myself, "Wow, that has to be Zac Brown." After a little bit of investigating I confirmed it was him. He brings his daughter in to school everyday. It is so strange to see him knowing he is such a big country singer. I've never seen anyone stop and talk to him, just simple hellos. :)
This blog entry was going to be about Owen's Halloween events at school, and I ended up writing more about Zac Brown. I think I'll start another entry just for Owen's Halloween events!

Block Party

Our neighborhood had a block party last Saturday. I took a whole whopping 2 pictures...both of Brady riding on the 4 wheeler. We wouldn't let him ride it at first, but he got on and quickly figured out how it worked. Thankfully, the battery started running low, so it was moving pretty slow. I love his little Miss America wave he does! :)

Halloween Buckets

McDonalds happy meals are so cute right now. The meal comes in a bucket with blank potato heads on the side. Stickers come in the bucket, so the child can decorate it. The boys had fun doing this one night after dinner.

Painting

As a party favor the boys received a Mickey Mouse paint set. The boys enjoyed painting so much! I found some big coloring pages and let them use all their paint up! :) They were a mess when they were finished, but it was bath night! I'm sure they'll be asking to paint in the near future!

Water Drops

These pictures are kind of random, but I was telling my dad about it, so I thought I would post them on our blog. At my last photography class we did an experiment with trying to capture a picture of water dripping into a pan. The pan was silver, but we played with the different settings on our cameras! It was fun and neat to see the differences, but I'm not really sure what the point of the experiment was. :)

Halloween Costumes

I was going to take the boys to Starr's Mill to take pictures of them in their Halloween costumes, but both entrances were blocked for some reason. So we headed back to Senoia to take a few pictures! I'm actually really pleased with how they turned out. I REALLY wish they would have had different clothes on! You'll probably be seeing these same backgrounds really soon...just with different outfits! :)

Uncle Bob's

The MOMS Club went to Uncle Bob's Farm last week! It was perfect weather and a great way to spend the morning. The picture below is of my friend Amanda's little boy! His name is Cole. Isn't he the cutest baby ever?! :)

I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but Brady is showing me his pumpkin stamp.

Donovan likes this pumpkin!

Cathy thought this was a good place to take a belly picture!

All the kids sat and watched a man create a piece of pottery. I couldn't believe they all sat down and watched him.

Cupcakes

A girl in my photography class has a blog and I found a recipe for boston creme cupcakes on it! They looked so good and sounded really easy to make. We went to a friend's house on my birthday, so I decided to make them! Yummy...and so easy!

Haunted House Decorating

The boys and I decorated a gingerbread haunted house. We had a great time! It was NOT a pretty sight though! The frosting was way too runny and the boys were way more interested in sneaking licks than actually decorating. Towards the end I gave in and let them lick and eat away! :)

I let Brady do this AFTER we were all done decorating! :)

Atlanta Motor Speedway

The MOMS Club went to the Atlanta Motor Speedway last weekend. We went on a little tour of the facility, then we were able to watch some race cars go around the track. It's hard to believe this HUGE facility only hosts one race a year.

The picture below is after Brady decided to push the button on a fire extinguisher! It scared him and embarrassed him.

Football with Papa

One of Owen's birthday gifts was a football. The boys having been tossing it around a lot lately! For a 2 1/2 year old, Brady actually has a pretty decent throw. Sometimes he can even make it spiral! :) Brady will stand like he's ready to catch the ball and at the last minute will turn away from the ball...as you can see in the picture below.

Owen's Birthday Party

We decided to have Owen's party at the park in Senoia. The weather could not have been more perfect. Owen decided he wanted a monster truck theme, so, that's what we did! The kids played on the playgroup, we ate cake and ice cream and then we had a pinata.
