Halloween Weekend

On Saturday, my sister and I hosted a wedding shower for our soon-to-be SIL, Emily.  I somehow only managed to take a few pictures (which never happens!)
Brunch table with lots of goodies.
 

Yummy Vincent cupcakes

Emily opening presents
 Then Saturday night we went trick-or-treating.
Argh Matey! My little pirate Walker


Will as Captain Rex 
Will is obsessed with Star Wars!  He thought it was really funny because he closed his eyes in all his pictures and  I didn't realize that you could see them closed.
 

Trick-or-treating at Grandma Cunningham's
 Sunday morning was Old Fashion Day at Church. 
So sweet! 

Walker could pass for a little Amish boy

There was even a wagon ride after lunch

Pumpkin Patch

Today, after church and before play practice, we went on our yearly trip to the pumpkin patch.  The weather was great and the boys had a great time!
We fed and petted some animals...
Walker had so much fun feeding the goats.


Will loved these little goats.
                                               walked through the corn maze...
                                                    ran into some friends...
                                           went on the hayride to the pumpkin patch ...
Will was very impressed with this gourd he found for me.  He kept saying, "Aren't you glad I found this?!"   

His "warty" pumpkin he found.

Walker and his "watermelon" colored pumpkin
                                                   crawled through the hay tunnel...
                                                              played....
                                                     AND HAD A GREAT AFTERNOON!!!!!

M-I-C-K-E-Y

We just got home from a wonderful fall break, birthday-celebrating trip to Walt Disney World.  We went to celebrate Will's upcoming 6th birthday and Walker's upcoming 3rd birthday.  Both boys got sick on the trip but that didn't slow any of us down and it didn't stop the fun!  Here are a few (okay a bunch) of pictures from our trip.  I took tons of pictures and narrowed down to a few highlights.

Family picture

I don't think Walker had ever seen Stitch before.  He was the first character we saw at Epcot and quickly became Walker's favorite.  Here are the boys at O'Hana's (our favorite)!


Picture with Mickey Mouse



My sweet boys!

Walker just HAD to have this set of Mickey ears.  He tried on practically every pair there and I had to give in because that was the only pair he wanted.

Walker's favorite ride - Dumbo.  We got to ride Dumbo late one evening just as the fireworks show began over the castle.  We had the best view!

We were lucky enough to get to follow to Florida, and then meet up with some friends of ours from Church, who were visiting at the same time.  Here are the kiddos - Juliaha, Walker, Lucas & Will getting ready to go see It's Tough to Be a Bug.




The highlight of Will's trip - the Jedi training.  15 kids were chosen to train with a Jedi Master and then they got to fight Darth Vader.  Look how serious Will is!  He loved it!!!  (And so did I - he looked so cute!)

We stayed at Disney's All Star Movies.  Here are Will & Walker with Buzz Lightyear.

Two sad boys who didn't want to leave.

I want to ride on a fire truck!!!!

 Fire Truck! by Ivan Ulz is one of Walker's favorite songs/books.  They sing it quite frequently at the Little Learning Center.  My goal is to get Walker on video singing it because it is hilarious to hear him it with his cute little country-as-they-come accent.  "Fire truck, Fire truck, I wanna ride on a fire truck, sleep in a fire station...."  Anyways....today was the St. Jude Trike-a-thon at the LLC.  The theme this year was medical related (drs, lab techs, etc).  Walker wanted to be a fireman and decorate his bicycle like a firetruck (surprise!).  We went with the emergency response approach and just look at how adorable he was!  

Will prepping Walker this morning.  Will has been in the Trike-a-thon for the past two years, so Walker was excited that it was his turn.

How sweet!  Daddy did a great job making a tricycle into a fire truck!

Isn't he the cutest little fireman you've ever seen?!

Nana went and took lots of pictures for us.  I was so sad that I had to miss it this year.  Here is Walker leading the way, with Alexa not far behind.


Crash!  Everyone was okay...those turns are really tricky!
Walker wearing his medal.  We've gathered from what he said that the medal was for the best decorated tricycle.  At least that's what Walker said, "the prettiest".

The Boys of Fall

Will's first youth league flag football game was tonight and the boys did great!  Although we didn't keep score, I believe our boys scored 3 times compared to the other teams 1 touchdown.  Yay! 
Walker cheering on his big brother and Daddy helping coach.
Look at that great defense by #7
Go Will!
