Birthday Party at the Pool!

We celebrated Gabe's 5th birthday and his buddy Austin's 7th birthday at the local pool on Saturday, and let's just say, a GREAT time was had by all! The kids loved it, and some of the parents even got in the pool and had a great time too! Fun to celebrate with family and friends- wouldn't change a thing (well, maybe some air conditioning in the party room at the pool!)

Austin thinking swimming is pretty fun!

The kids sure thought the "Water Walk" was fun!

Gabe blowing out his candles- what a relief this year to buy cupcakes instead of baking a cake!

Gabe and his cousin Mackenzie and the mommies (can you tell Gabe liked the blue frosting on the cupcakes?)

Date night and babysitting trade-

We traded babysitting this weekend with our good friends, the Currey's, so we could both have Date Night for to celebrate our wedding anniversaries that we discovered are just a few days apart. We went to a very nice dinner (how strange to be able to eat without "Hey, stop that! We don't play with our food!" etc.) and then we realized that we are getting really old because we just wanted to come home and go to sleep!!!

At the restaurant- ahhh, a quiet dinner!

When the Currey kids came to our house to play, Gabe and Emma decided a little dancing was in order, and then Emma declared them MARRIED- ack! Apparently, kids grow up quick these days!!!!

They sure did have fun dancing together!!!

Kadin found Gabe's Hulk hands, and decided they were pretty cool!

Trick or Treat!!!

Well, another year, another wonderful time Trick-or-Treating with the Earnhardt's and their neighbors. The weather was great- the rain literally stopped JUST in time! And after we were all done, the kids' sugar high was spent, and they were all all asleep (Thanks Matt and Neese for letting us come over!), us adults got to spend some time chit-chatting and eating YUMMY pie. So fun was had by all- kids and parents alike! Now we're excited for the rest of the Holiday Season- Thanksgiving here we come!!!!

The kids having a great time

Gabe is so excited!

Best buds in their Transformer costumes!

The kids loot!
