What a great idea, Logan is TOTALLY into it!!! I should have known this is totally how Logan is “smart”…  I should have thought of it but I didn’t, so I give all the credit to my smart smart hubby!!

Here are a few pictures of Chris and Logan putting together their first Lego kit :)

Back in January we decided to take a Saturday trip as a family out to ride the Strasburg rail road… we got there and guess what??? no trains were running, They were closed til February something… FIGURES!!!  Well, we decided to enjoy our day anyway so we went across the street and looked at the trains in the train museum… my personal opinion was it SUCKED!!! But they boys sort of liked it… I would not recommend it nor would I ever go again… but here are a few pictures of our day as a family… it was fun to watch the boys and enjoy time together…

Back in the summer the boys found my  oven mitts and put them on it entertained them for a good hour, running around with them on, karate chopping mommy, swinging them around, hitting each other, huge high fives but really it was a high two :) … yup the crazy things that entertain boys!!! Its so easy to be a mom of a boy just give them an oven mitt!!! :) hahaha

This is Logan dressed up in the afternoon at my parents, he was having a great time, Grayson on the other hand melted down… Poor guy just didn’t understand what was going on….

Here are a few pictures, since it was raining I didn’t bring our big camera on the trick or treat part so these pictures are courtesy of our friends (the O’Malleys and the McLaughlins), and family… Thanks guys!!!

Leah (snow white #2) and Grayson (who refused to dress up, so hes supposed to be a cowboy #2, see the boots, and the shirt is sort of cowboy-ish, but no hat or scarf, he threw a fit) but he LOVED trick or treating and wanted to eat all the candy he got as soon as he got it :) fun fun!!!

Aubrey (Snow white #1) and Logan (cow boy #1+ Woody from toy story)

Logan (Woody ), and Jake (Peter Pan) they wouldn’t take their candy out of their mouths even for this one picture it was funny!!!

Aubrey (snow white #1) and Logan (Woody) trick or treating… they are so cute!!!

Logan and Jake (this is one of my most favorite pictures from that night) too stinkin cute!!!

yee haw cow boy!!!

Here they are the BIG group picture…. (L-R, B-F) Leah (snow white) on Aubrey O’Malley (snow white), Maddie McLaughlin (Bell), Emma Steckiel (60′s chick), Avery Steckiel (Mariposa Barbie), Abby Steckiel (genie), Grayson (throwing his normal fit- Cowboy), Evie Steckiel (was a chicken, but out of her outfit in this pic), Logan (cowboy), Jake McLaughlin (Peter Pan), Abby McLaughlin (Tinker Bell)

another favorite: Howdy Ma’am :) it even looks like hes smoking :) HAHA

I know we don’t have many pictures of Grayson but he was half miserable the entire night, he did enjoy trick or treating half way threw but once done he got grouchy again… Oh well, maybe next year :)

I bought this scarecrow girl as a decoration a few years ago, knowing that it would never be left alone, nothing this size would be left alone by two little boys who are about the same size :) so far she has faired well considering they like to drag her around… at least they haven’t started karate chopping her or anything they just pull her around… soon I am sure they will be karate chopping her or putting her in a head lock, or some other “boy” thing…

IMG_1541.JPG

When the boys play with the poor little scarecrow girl it always reminds me of the commercial they had on when I was young for the “My Buddy” doll for boys and the “Kid Sister” doll for girls and they were huge dolls that were supposed to be about as big as you as a kid… I always wanted one, but I had an actual sister so I am not sure why I wanted one :)
