Happy Halloween, Happy Memories!

We had a great night tonight! We hope all our friends and family had a great night too and made some sweet memories! Our friends invited us over to their house to trick-or-treat and have a little gathering out in their driveway. Their daughter is Maddie's friend, Monica, the other M&M! 


This was taken before we left at our house. At this point, both Cooper and Chloe were extremely cranky and we started thinking that the evening wasn't going to go so well.




Julianna, a friend from club volleyball, arrived in this jeep! So fun!

Madison, Monica, Julianna, Mallory

My sweet Minnie Mouse!

After a few houses, Cooper and Chloe got the hang of trick-or-treating and had so much fun!





My only picture with them together, with their candy buckets and ears on and the lighting was off! UGH!



This will be my favorite memory of the evening. When we got back to our friends' driveway, Cooper and Chloe had so much fun handing candy out to the trick-or-treaters. Cooper also would take a few pieces to add to his bucket.  


Maddie and Monica


Back with a full load!


Her first lollipop!
Nana came with us!


Halloween 2010 was a blast! I loved every minute of it!
Maddie, Cooper and Chloe loved it too. Maddie was such a good big sis and took Cooper and Chloe trick-or-treating before she went out with the big girls on their own. Good times had by all!


Here are a few random pictures.

 Maddie's volleyball season with the junior high team has come to an end. Maddie did really well and was a true leader on the team. We are very proud of her and all the bulldogs. Now, it's time for the club season to begin!



Cute one from Friday. This was taken as we left Friday morning for Miss Shelley's house.

Four Toddlers and a Big Sister in a Pumpkin Patch!

This was last year...
This was this year...


And, that's the only two pictures I got where all of them are in the same picture!

Cooper would NOT put his ears on and really didn't want anything to do with pictures...


Not sure why I think this picture is so cute, maybe it's b/c they both have their
converse tennis shoes on and on the same foot when walking AWAY from me!

Zachary thought the pumkins were balls!

Nathaniel and Cooper are at least walking towards me!

The three guys!

Batman!

Minnie Mouse!

Hmm...will he put his ears on??

Quick! Take the picture!
Mickey Mouse!

50's Girl!

Skeleton!

Let's go Nathaniel! This is so lame!
I hear we are going to eat BBQ after this!

Wings over Houston Air Show

Today, we went to see the Wings Over Houston Air Show from across the street! We actually found the perfect place to see the show, protect Cooper and Chloe's ears and have a clean place to use the restroom. The VFW hall literally across the street from the entrance to Ellington Field opened their parking lot, hall and concessions for the price of a donation. It was great! And, it allowed for a quick exit when Cooper and Chloe were ready for their nap. My aunt and uncle live in Deer Park which is very close so we hung out at their house the rest of the day.

This was Cooper's favorite place to hang!




My girl was being so incredibly cute today. She was so happy.

Nana bought her new sunglasses for today and she really liked them!


All Cooper wants these days is a ball! Never mind the huge plane flying above his head!

"Okay, Sis, this is where you throw it back at me!"
