FINALLY!
I have had the most difficult time uploading pictures from my camera. I finally got them all uploaded. Here are lots from when we went to Peachtree City for Emily's sister, Courtney's, wedding. The kids were so excited to see all of their cousins, and the visit went way too quickly! There are also some pictures from Thanksgiving when we went back to PTC.

Intimate moment
I'm sitting in the other room and listening to the boys talk to each other, and my eyes are tearing up from how sweet they can be to each other.
Austin: I missed you, Aidie.
Aidan: You missed me when I was at school?
Austin: Yeah.
Aidan: I missed you, too. When I was laying down at nap time, I was thinking to myself, "I miss Austin."

Roasting Marshmallows... in shorts
We bought a fire pit for our house a few weeks back, and the boys were so excited that we had to try it out right away. It hadn't cooled down yet, but the boys were far too excited to turn down. As you can tell by the pictures, it got quite smoky. The boys were more interested in lighting the marshmallows on fire and blowing them out than in eating them. I think they each ate one or two, and Maddux ate five or six. :-)

Halloween / Pumpkin Patch
I'm going to pretend it's not December right now. Here are some pictures from our Halloween activities this year.
Halloween was a busy day. We had Austin's party, a trip to the pumpkin patch and trick-or-treating. We couldn't fit our visit to the pumpkin patch in this year until the afternoon of Halloween. We had already carved our pumpkin, but I wanted to hit all the hot spots for Anna's first Halloween. What I did not take into consideration was that the pumpkin patch would be completely picked over. So... we were left with a pumpkin-less muddy patch with random pumpkins scattered about. We gathered the pumpkins together that weren't molded, broken, green or rotten and took a few pictures.
Aidan looks FAR too grown up in this picture. :-(
The pumpkin farm had this great children's play area that was completely filled with kernels of corn. The kids had a great time playing in it, and I found kernels in the washing machine for days after that visit.
That night, we went over to a friend's house and let the kids play together before they went trick-or-treating. The moms took the kids on the first half of the neighborhood while the dads passed out candy (and watched football). When we came back to switch places, the kids were having so much fun playing together that they never made it out trick-or-treating again.
The boys were Power Rangers, and our little princess was Snow White. Austin was determined to be a green Power Ranger and after scouring the city for a costume, I ended up having to buy it online. It was NOT one of my good deals, but I got Aidan's used on Ebay, so they evened out in the end.
