Halloween!

Oliver went trick-or-treating for the first time on Sunday. He did pretty well for the 10 or so houses we visited down in Leslie, but he didn't understand why he just couldn't sit there and eat the candy as soon as he got it.

We couldn't get him to say trick-or-treat until the last house, but we got a "please" and "thank you" that got him extra candy at a few houses :)

At his first house!

Walking down the street to the next one!

RRRRAAAAAAARRR!

Of course Olive and Agnes couldn't be left out on the festivities and trick-or-treated with Oliver! We all thought Agnes' outfit was a little tight, but we didn't say anything... :)

Pumpkins!

After Oliver's party...and a much needed nap...Grandma Feazel and Julie's nephew John helped Odie carve his first pumpkin! I don't think he was too sure of the gooey pumpkin guts, but it was the start of a great tradition! Uncle Jeff wanted to toast the pumpkin seeds, and the dogs agreed...they kept stealing the raw ones from the mat.

Oliver's 2nd Birthday Party!

Oliver had a great time at his second birthday party. He had a great time playing with his cousins Lexi, Beckham and Cooper and his best bud Maddie! We were a little worried when MSU was so far behind, but the game and the party were victorious!

I don't know how we did it, but Jason fit all the goodies in the Tahoe. Thank you to all who could come and make Oliver's day special! He loves all his new toys and can't wait to play with them...even if I am convinced the Mr. Potato Head makers are crazy if they think we are going to be able to keep track of all his parts... Also, a special thanks to Uncle Jeff and Aunt Julie for the use of their house...we all loved the extra space and toys.

Blowing out the candle with Mommy

Yum! Cake!!

Presents! Lexi and Beckham were great helpers!!

Pinata time!

Not sure why Grandpa is down there...I'm sure he's "helping" with the candy!

New toys!

Family Time!

A few weeks ago, Saundra brought Seth and Evan home for a visit. It was great having time to catch up and let the kids play! Well, let Oliver and Evan play and try to keep Oliver from shaking Seth's bouncy seat. :) We lucked out that Oliver had a chance to partially recover from his ear infections while Saundra was visiting Adam's family, so it all worked out great!
The Honeysetts will be back up for Christmas and Oliver (along with his Mom and Dad) can't wait for more play dates!

Birthday cake for Evan, Saundra and Oliver!

Riding tricycles down the street...even though neither one of them would use the pedals...

Cheese!

Gator Time!!

Watching baby Seth!

At the zoo feeding the llamas!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!

Odie's first trip to the ER

Poor little Odie recently woke up with a 105 degree fever...we called the Dr and Odie and Mom headed to the emergency room.

The follow-up a few days later indicated a double ear infection. We just finished his last dose of antibiotics so hopefully he stays well.

A trip to Uncle John's Cider Mill!

Since we already had our pumpkins from the Dutch Rd pumpkin patch, the family went over to Uncle John's with Uncle Jeff, Aunt Julie and her nephew John.

Odie had a great time playing on the bikes and the train and rounded off his day in the bounce house! After leaving with bags of donuts and gallons of cider, we were ready to ring in fall!

It's a Boy!

We received confirmation that Baby Garrett II is indeed a healthy baby boy!

Grandma and Grandpa's Pumpkin Patch

On Thursday Odie went down to Grandma and Grandpa Feazel's house to pick pumpkins in their pumpkin patch. He had a great time loading the pumpkins in his Gator and driving them back to the house. Dad could barely keep up!
