What a WONDERFUL 3 years!!!

3 years ago today, our first beautiful baby boy was born.  I can' t believe how fast and wonderful the last 3 years have been!  We started off the day with, of course,... PRESENTS!!!

And being that it was our coldest/rainiest day of the fall so far, had to try out the new scooter inside...

Max loves Nemo at the moment, so he chose an "ocean" theme for his party.  We made an ocean cake...

We deorated the basement like an ocean; had Nemo, sea horse and shark ballons, and a turtle pinata.  Max was SO excited for the pinata after seeing one at a friend's birthday party last month :)

And Finn kept himself very entertained at the alcohol tub :)

It was such a fun day surrounded by great friends, and a very special visit from Grandma.  Max is already talking about his next birthday party :)

Home with the boys

For my mom's 60th birthday, I decided to fly home to WI the the boys to help her celebrate :)  The weather was perfect - the exact reason my favorite season is fall.  Cool enough for a sweater, but don't need a jacket :)  We headed straight for a pumpkin farm after we arrived...

(yes, the Packers were playing that day :)

 We also got to take Grandma out to dinner with all of the grandkids...

And, because the weather was so beautiful, we got to spend lots of time at the park...

Max was very excited about all of the leaves falling, but Finn wasn't so sure...

But one he saw his big brother playing in the piles of leaves, he was much happier...

It was a wonderful trip to celebrate a very special day for the most special mom and grandma in the world!
