Halloween Part II

Our friends Suzy, Josh and Caroline threw a fabulous party on Saturday afternoon. Suzy works full time, has a 16 month old, and is 8 months pregnant. And look at the spread she put on!

Suzy is awesome (okay, Josh is too). They made shortbread scary lady fingers!



Adam's Ribs! Get it??

I didn't even get pictures of the gallstones (homemade pork and beef meatballs), peanut butter poo (spicy thai dip), or mummy English muffins.

BVZ wore a party shirt and a viking hat.

With the exception of a pumpkin, two pirates, and a skeleton, all the kids were different animals. Which was more adorable than I could handle. Getting them all in one frame for a picture was a virtual impossibility. But, it was fun to try.








It has been so much fun watching all of these amazing kiddos grow up over the months. We wish we saw more of them more often. Suzy and Josh! Have more parties!

Halloween Part I

Prepare yourself, for a lot of pictures.

Grammy came to California for Halloween and with her she brought an awesome ladybug costume for Norah. It was a little too big (and so at some points it looked like she had, ahem, some junk in the trunk), but it was beyond adorable. We picked Grammy up at the airport and met some of Norah's besties at a pumpkin patch. Here she is doing some modeling in front of the house before we left.

She was so not into the hood.








This might be one of my favorite Norah pictures of all times.


At the pumpkin patch we met up with Ava Butterfly,

Caleb Spider,

And Ruby Bee,

The girls were totally into the wagon. Caleb, however, was not.


He did walk alongside it though.





After they got out Norah decided she would pull the wagon around the patch.


And give out hugs.

Not only did Ruby Bee's costume have wings but she had a stinger. Norah kept grabbing it.



A pumpkin for Grammy,




Norah and Ruby were obsessed with this scary witch lady (a big rubber scary witch lady). They would run up to her, get scared, then laugh.

Remarkably, Caleb left his spider hood on.


Ava played in hay,

So did Norah,





A fun day with our favorite kiddos.
