Tractor Time

 Then about a month later Uncle Dan brought Charlie a John Deere tractor.  

He loves it.  

Buddies.

 Ella, Josie and Ruth were My Little Ponies.  I tried to explain to Charlie what My Little Ponies Are and I settled on…they are sparkly horses.  

 Someone has them all looking at the camera in the one above..it's just not me.  

Happy Halloween Turned Spooky.

 Actual Halloween was very fun. Nicole had us all over for food and playing.  

Then we started heading out for the big event.  

Then we saw a spooky house and Charlie cried until we got back to Nicole's house and safely inside.  

Charlie's 3rd Birthday Request

Charlie's 3rd Birthday request was friends.

Happy Birthday Buddy! We love you so so much!  

Wedding in Woodstock

 We had a great time in Vermont for Ian and Kristin's wedding in Woodstock. 

The weekend was also full of fun activities with great friends.  

Happy Birthday Alexander

 Adults and kids alike had a fantastic time at Alexander's bouncy house birthday. 

The best entertainment ever?

 Baer and Dan used Charlie as a decoy to wave to the unsuspecting log ride passengers. 

 They insert 25 cents. 

 The unsuspecting family is sprayed. 

Funniest thing ever.  

Weeeeeeee

 Dan and Kali invited us to Canobie Lake and Kali and I thought it was best to do the Starblaster as soon as we got there.  

 This is the face I make when I'm having fun I guess.  

Photoshoots

We also kept busy with photoshoots.  

Charlie made it until the fireworks which didn't start until 10:30pm!  

Keeping the boys busy.

 We did a good job keeping the boys busy while waiting for the fireworks.  

We watched the helicopters flying over.

 We let them warm up the ice luge with water.  

Final Products

 Charlie wondering why his house was flat. 

 Notice our flattened house to the left.  

Gingerbread Houses

 We had a fun time making gingerbread houses.  Thanks Lauren and Ryan! 

 The only shot of our house actually standing. 

 Ryan caught in the act. 

Racing

 Maya came over with Justin and of course they ended up racing each other.  

Birthday Fun Step 3

 Step 3: See how sturdy the bounce house is

All Done!

We stayed out at the beach until 530. It was such a great day and now that this blog post is showing up in the middle of September I'm sure I will be happy to think back to our fabulous summer! 

Happy Birthday Mom!
