Happy Halloween!

Gwynn was a cute little duck this Halloween.  She didn’t mind wearing her costume at all and it kept her nice and warm! She got to wear her costume three times this Halloween…once at St. Rose’s Harvest Festival, then again to daycare, and then Halloween night!  We love our little duckie!

After a short stop at home to give Gwynn her bottle, we headed over to the Burton’s house for our 2nd and final trick-or-treating stop. Gwynn got these super cool glasses in her treat bag from daycare.

Pumpkin

We Mommy had this brilliant idea to take a picture of Gwynn inside of a pumpkin (google “baby in a pumpkin” and you’ll see how cute it can be).  Well…we attempted this last night and it was a dismal failure.  First of all, Daddy had never carved a pumpkin before and was grossed out by the entire process.  Second, no matter how big we made the hole in the top of the pumpkin, Gwynn would not fit! By the time we were done trying Gwynn was covered in pumpkin and we just had to throw the whole thing out! We did get some cute pictures along the way and Gwynn got to experience what the inside of a pumpkin feels like…she really wanted to taste the inside of a pumpkin but we stopped her just in time!

Our visit with Aunt Connie and Aubrey in Tuscaloosa

Gwynn finally got to meet Aunt Connie and Aubrey (Aunt Connie and my mom have been friends since grade school…so we’ve always thought of them as family).  They came down from Pennsylvania this weekend so we could all visit.  We went out to eat on Friday night, went to a yard sale on Saturday morning where we got a lot of cool toys for Gwynn, then went out to campus on Saturday afternoon so they could experience some Alabama Football.  Aubrey and I even got to go to the game…thanks for the tickets Jennifer! Alabama played Tennessee and we won! On Sunday we went to church at St. John’s then had breakfast at The Waysider…yum!! We had a great time visiting with Grandma, Pop, Great Grandma, Aunt Connie, and Aubrey. I hope another 2 years doesn’t go by before we see them again! Here are some pictures from their visit.

Pictures from dinner Friday night.

This is how Aubrey rode to the game (I know…very unsafe).  We couldn’t justify spending money to park 2 cars though!

Jeff hadn’t joined us yet (he had a cross country meet in Cullman), so I had to stay with Gwynn while everyone enjoyed a yellowhammer.  She was a little too young to go into the bar with us!
