Party On, Easton!

As promised here's a glimpse into the super fun party we hosted yesterday...but first a few observations:
  1. Jace and I have some amazing friends but apparently they can't read (but thank you all so very much for the gifts) :)
  2. Any romantic ideas I had about opening a bakery one day have died a miserable death after making cupcakes from scratch, baking a cake and making enough frosting for both!
  3. Vegetable shortening is disgusting and should NEVER EVER EVER be used to make frosting. Eww. Or maybe I messed something up but I'm going with "eww"...
  4. Don't ever let Jace and I plan a party for you...or if you do completely underestimate the number of people attending and then you'll have the perfect amount of food.
  5. My husband is incredible! He was luke warm about this party until I told him how much I was looking forward to it and from there he was all in. From picking up the rental chairs to cleaning the kitchen after my cupcake wars trial run he was there for me, with a smile, the entire day. Thank you so much honey!!
Thanks for that quick indulgence :)

Alright so we got a lot of great photos and I put them together in the slideshow below. I tried to add captions to each of the pictures so hopefully those display. If you can't view the slideshow here's the link to the album. Let me know what you think about this format. Does it work for you or not?

Anyway...I hope you enjoy these as much as we did living them!!

Deck The Halls '13

Fa, la, la, la, laaa...la, la, la, la.  Christmas decorating came a bit early this year but we wanted to be adequately prepared for Uncle Jeff's arrival tomorrow -- and also, Easton is lovin' him some Christmas...and Santa...and talking about presents...which, in turn, allows us to talk about him being good for Santa and said presents. "No, Mom, I got this" I obviously got dressed up for the occasion...honestly, as long as the Christmas tree hat is on I could care less what I'm wearing. :) A quick little stroll down memory lane.  Love you, Gramie! E putting his "First Christmas" ornament up Just a little nostalgia -- this is the chair we did all his monthly shots in And a bonus shot (thanks for sticking around so long).  Little man's toe nail is no where to be found.  So strange. You're welcome, E. Love, Mom.

Trunk or Treat 2013

We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!

Little Slugger

Considering the World Series may come to a conclusion soon I figured I should get these photos up while baseball's still being played.  Though he's not throwin' from the mound with his left (yet) he is definitely a natural left-hand batter.  Daddy and Grapes are stoked.
