Pumpkin Carving

It's that time of year again......and James and I for some reason love to carve pumpkins for Halloween. We had a carving party with the Creel's on Saturday and Claire had her own pumpkin too! Now, we are ready for trick-or-treating on Friday!

Mommy's creepy haunted house!

Daddy's scary raven!

Aunt Cara carved a portrait of Daisy! We love it!
Granny's happy Jack-o-lantern!
Paw Paw's fun with the drill!

Party Time

Sunday was Claire's friend, Hayes' first birthday party!! She had a great time playing in the back yard and helping Hayes eat his cake (even thought he didn't need it). He just dug right in and Claire thought it looked like fun so she joined him. Happy Birthday Hayes!

Playing in Hayes' new sand table.

Look at Hayes' new cool four wheeler!First time on a slide.

I think he's starting to slow down....yummy cake!I'm not sure if Hayes is trying to push Claire on the four wheeler or if he's telling her to get off his new toy, but they're having fun!

The Great Pumpkin Patch

On Saturday we went to the pumpkin patch in Hayden. Claire had a great time and the weather was beautiful. First, we went on a hayride and picked out the 2 biggest pumpkins we could find for Daddy to carry back to the car, and then Claire rode a pony!!! I think this place will definitely be a yearly trip for Halloween!!

These are the 2 we have to get!!

Daddy loves waiting with heavy pumpkins while we take more pics!

Claire is about to jump over the rail to get on a pony!

Look at this big girl!

Now if she could just learn how to hold on.

Photo Shoot

Claire had a great one year photo shoot.....here are a few of our favorites!

Auburn Football

Grandma & Grandpa came to visit us last weekend from Baton Rouge. On Saturday, Claire stayed with Granny, Paw Paw & Aunt Cara while we went to the Auburn/LSU game. We all had a great time except for Auburn's loss. Claire also had a second birthday party with Grandma & Grandpa and Sunday we all got together and had dinner with the Creel's.

Still loving the wagon!
Family picture time

Claire's 1st Birthday!

Claire celebrated her first birthday this past Saturday, the 13th. We had an "Under the Sea" pool party with our family and friends and it was a great time. Thanks to everyone for coming and for Claire's wonderful gifts.
