Halloween Weekend

I am so blessed! What a great weekend we had. Tristan stayed the whole weekend with us and we had a blast. The boys
dressed up as Buzz and Woody. Pretty popular characters. Tanner just loves them SO much. I love that he is active and outgoing but will also sit and pay attention to an entire movie and he is not even two. I think that is great. He has all three Toy Story movies and both Cars movies. He just got Cars 2 yesterday. I love Disney!! Woody is such a great character. Tanner made a great woody. He also absolutely LOVES his cousin Tristan. Friday night we took the boys to his Meme's and Grampy's house for pizza and Sat we went to the pumpkin patch and Halloween party. The best part was just having the boys here and watching them laugh together and play. Tristan is a lot like my sister and Tanner is a lot like me. Tanner looks more like Billy but he sure acts like his mama. When my sister came to pick up Tristan on Sunday we all had lunch and then Whitney and Tristan left. Tanner cried for them and was saying "CAR, TRISTAN, CAR" He wanted to go with his Aunt Whitney and cousin Tristan. Then he went down for his nap. First thing when he woke up he went looking for Tristan. They are less than 5 months apart and I am so glad they have each other. We are teaching Tanner about getting outside of ourselves and loving others the way Jesus loves us. It is SO EASY to obsess on things and our material objects. I have to say it was nice just enjoying the boys this weekend and sitting on the porch while they ate Popsicles and ran around chasing Nani. The weather is beautiful. I love to sit on the back porch and look at the moon. It is so sweet how Tanner says MOON!! God has given me a beautiful world to enjoy with amazing people in it. I am in a very busy season of my life but oh how it suits me. I love taking care of my family. I love cooking new things and going on trips. Running races and our long DISNEY weekends have been one of our favorite things to do this year. Animal Kingdom, Blizzard Beach, and Mickeys-not so-scary Halloween have been great. Life for me is fun and I am enjoying it to the fullest. Grateful to be taking care of Tanner full time and also earning some extra income while only having to work two or three days a week. Yes it is true the days are long but the years are short. While Tanner is yes in fact turning two next week he will not start kindergarten until 2015 so we have lots more time of enjoying the preschool years. I already am looking forward to his birthday party, photo shoot on the beach and dinner out. All three happening next week. FUN FUN FUN!!
