I am a little behind with these two pictures from Avery's house... I had to post them both because they are two of the cutest pictures of Griffin with his buddies... Hudson and Griffin watching the dogs out of the window together and the three amigos posing with the pumpkins - Avery, Griffin and Hudson

celebrating mr. october - griffin's 1st birthday party
thank you so much to all of our family and friends for making Griffin's first birthday and party such a 'big hit'. Our little man will always remember his first birthday! He had so much fun from playing with his buddies and new toys to digging into and trying cake for the first time! Here are some highlights from his party!

griffin's second halloween

This year's Halloween was so much fun for Griffin! It is hard to believe that last year at this time he was just barely a week old! This year Griffin got into all of the festivities much more! From carving the pumpkin to trick or treating to answering the door and waiting for trick or treaters! Every bit of Halloween was so much fun!!!

getting ready to carve the pumpkin

just before bed, griffin wanted to pull out the seeds

ready for trick or treating

daddy leads the way

griffin is not a fan of having anything on his head, even for a costume

loving the wagon ride

happy punkin'

trick or treat

hmmmm

trick or treat

trick or treat

time to go home

looks like there is still room for candy in that pumpkin pail

when we got home our little pumpkin ate dinner and helped clean up

whenever trick or treaters were at the door, he was there before us to greet them

and waiting for more...
