Our little pumpkin is turning one!

Photo of the week
This past weekend we celebrated our sweet little Isla turning one! Her actual birthday is tomorrow but we had her party on Sunday. Kyle's mom, Sally, came into town to celebrate with us as well. It was a crazy busy weekend getting ready for the party, but it was a lot of fun and went great! I still am in shock that Isla is already one year old.

Like a lot of other mom's in the month of October, I gave it my best shot to get a cute pumpkin patch picture.  It did not really work out the way I had hoped but that is what I expected with two small children with lots of energy!

they are both looking forward at least...
this is real life people :) 

Knox & Blythe
the Birthday Girl
We went to a pumpkin patch at a local church with Sally to pick up some pumpkins for the party. Knox, my little reader, just sat down for story time with another preschool class that happened to be there at the same time we were. Ha! That kid loves books!

We also did a Target run to get ready for the party and Knox came home with quite a few goodies since Nana was in town. His new favorite activity is playing baseball in the backyard. He's actually pretty good too!

 Alright, I am warning you. This is the start of the birthday pictures.  It is LONG so brace yourself!

 Thanks to lots of help from Kyle & Sally- Isla's party was a hit! I am SOO glad it's over though and we can just relax and enjoy her actual birthday tomorrow. Knox's birthday is coming up in 2 weeks but his party is not going to require hardly any preparation at all so I am thankful for that! Pretty soon I will have a one year old and a three year old. Wow!

Happy Halloween!
