Holiday Catch Up (and a BIG Birthday)

So, I have been offline for a while and now with the new year fast approaching I find myself trying to play a little catch up.

HALLOWEEN:

We attended our church's Trunk of Treat for Halloween and Seamus had a blast! He had just started walking and that evening he really took off. He was so excited to see everyone and make sure everyone saw him :)

Here are some pictures from that night:

I had every intention of making a very cute Charlie Brown costume for my little man's perfect Charlie Brown shaped head, but alas my mom found this skeleton outfit and when we put it on him we knew this was his costume and he ROCKED it :)

THANKSGIVING:

We went with some of Chad's family to the Hemlock Inn for Thanksgiving. The Inn is owned by his Grandfather and currently run by his Aunt and Uncle. We were married there (July will be 5 years WOW) and enjoy the time that we get to spend with wonderful family and good friends. The food at the Inn is AMAZING and Seamus enjoyed getting to try lots of new things.

Here are a few pictures from that trip:

CHRISTMAS:

OK, so I really haven't gone through any Christmas pictures yet so I will get those up at some point. We did our usual and traveled to both mine and Chad's parents houses on Christmas morning. We also all had dinner together on Christmas Day night (my parents, Chad's parents and two of his sisters and their families. It was a lot of fun to have everyone together and Seamus was worn out by the end of the day.

And now the BIG ONE:::

Shay's 1st BIRTHDAY:

Thankfully my college roommate came to visit and helped me get everything together for the party. The party was Robot themed with a lot of Toy Story also. I made a robot cake and a cake for Shay to have for himself. We had a great time and took a nice nap at the end of the day.

Here are pictures from the party:

So that should catch everything up through the end of the year. We are spending the New Year in our "new" basement, those pictures to come soon.

I am hoping to update at least once a week in 2011!! Happy New Year!!

Independence Day

We had some friends come over a grill out on Saturday and then we went to watch fireworks at the Marietta Square! I hope everyone had a great 4th!!

Here are a few pictures from our day. Seamus got to meet a new friend! Baby Campbell, Campbell is almost 2 months old and his mom and I used to work together.

They were both a little tired from all the excitement of the day :)

We ended the night by taking in a nice fireworks show. Seamus woke up for the finale but snoozed through most of the rest.

**Sorry for the blurry cell phone pic!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day yesterday with both mine and Chad's families :) Chad took some awesome pictures with our new camera! Thanks to both our parents, Jenn and Doug and Lainey and Mort for the great early Christmas gift! We can't wait to capture some pictures of our new bundle when he arrives. Chad had fun getting the kids to make faces at him on the trampoline.

Chad also got George to "pose" for some fun pictures :)

The "Aftermath" as Chad calls it :)

We had some AMAZING food and GREAT TIMES with all of the family!! We are just a few days from Seamus joining all the craziness!!
