The LaGarde Family

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…

I have been aweful at taking pictures lately and even worse at updating the blog, sorry about that everyone who actually checks it and reads what I have to say!

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

As has been tradition for the last few years, we went trick or treating with our small group, it was an adventure since it was raining, but it stopped half way through and it wasn’t cold in fact it was pretty nice, so over all we had an amazing time with friends and made lots of  fun memories…

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!!!
