Super Evan

So, Evan has a cousin that is a year old than him (Oliver).  Oliver was a dalmatian last year for Halloween.  So this year, Evan gets to be a dalmatian.  The best part about this costume is that my mom (nana) made it.  My mom is bringing it with her on Thursday when she and my dad get here to spend a few days with us.  Then, I found out that Rick's squadron had a family fall festival... so, Rick and I decided that we could make a cheap costume for Evan to wear the the festival.   He was Super Evan and he was definitely cute.

Wait, he can't be a super hero without pants!

My two favorite guys.                  







We had a lot of fun at the squadron festival.  There was food, games, sweets and lots of cute kiddies.  Evan loved running around, booming (throwing) everything into his treat bag, and eating the cupcakes and other sweets. 

Evan's First Pumpkin Patch Trip

Last weekend we went to Gaver Farm near Frederick, Maryland.  I've always wanted to go to a pumpkin patch, and with Evan getting a little bit older, I thought it would be fun if we all went as a family. 

We headed out and had a ton of fun that Saturday.  There was so much for the little kids to do.  We didn't even get to do the corn maze... it was a lot of fun just playing games with Evan. 

Next in line to go down the big slide.

Evan loved it.

Evan is so darn cute!

He loved pumping that water.

He kept going back to it.

 We had a fun time.  As much as I really don't like Maryland, I am really starting to like that there is a lot to do in the area.  We're looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas stuff to do.  And looking forward to my parents coming this week!
