“Yappy” Halloween–Weston’s 1st Halloween

Get it…….yappy Halloween? I know so clever.

We celebrated our 1st holiday with the little dude! I’m so excited that he’s here for all the fun fall/winter holidays!

I was pretty pumped about dressing him up! I ordered the cute puppy hat for his newborn photos. I had visions of a beautiful shot of Brady (our Border Collie) kissing his chubby cheek while he wore the hat. Yeah that didn’t happen.  I didn’t even get 1 photo of him in it soooooo I decided to  save it for his Halloween costume! It actually worked out for the best because………. LOOK HOW CUTE!

Enter Weston’s 1st homemade costume!

I used double sided tape to tape the felt spots onto his onesie. That way I can take spots off afterwards and still use the outfit. I know genius, right? We can thank my lake of sewing skills and time for that one.

We went a little snap happy with the camera. I have a feeling there will be many upon many impromptu photo shoots in the little dudes future. Poor guy is going to think my camera is my 3rd arm.

We even set up the tripod for a family photo.

 

EEEEK I love the 2 below. I can’t pick a favorite!

His double chin pretty much melts my heart!

 

Sorry my mug is plastered all over this post. I was a bad mom and didn’t grab the camera from Kent to take a few of him with nugget. If you follow us on instagram I’ve posted tons of cute baby and daddy photos.

 

Hehehe the look on his face.
Looks like he’s telling Abby to step off guurrrrl!

How we Celebrated Halloween:

Our nephew is in town visiting all the way from China!  We took him trick-or-treating which was stinking adorable to see his reaction to the whole thing. We then met up with our neighbor (who is also one of my close friends) to passed out candy. 

The weather was perfect. 
I ended the night with no leftover candy. Huge plus!
Weston was adorable in his costume.
And I got to catch up with my gal pal.

It was an awesome Halloween!

Fall Porch Décor–Pumpkins Galore

Didn’t want to go too crazy with this year’s fall porch décor.

Nah

Last time I made my own glaze, painted pumpkins, crafted up some fall themed tea lights.

Yeah it was cute and all but it was a lot of work!

This time I just wanted to throw something together.

Here’s what I came up with………

 

 

I’m still using the same fall wreath I made a few years back. It’s been around for awhile but I love it so it gets to stay!

 

I thought I would save myself some time and just plant pumpkins instead of pansies. You don’t have to water pumpkins……well after they’re off the vine you don’t!

 

My shadow aka Brady aka The Tornado was having a hissy fit that he had to stay inside.

I didn’t  realize he was photobombing until I looked back though the pictures. Only 3 1/2 months old and already rocking the photobomb what a little genius.

 

On Friday I’m going to the World’s Longest Garage sale with my mom. In fact by the time you read this I’m probably already getting my shop on!

Y’all I can even tell you how excited I am. We’re talking miles upon miles of awesomeness! I’ll be taking pics and video so I can share. If you would like to follow along find me on Instagram. I’ll be posting throughout the day!

Trust me you’re going to want to see this!

 

HaLLoWeE Extravaganza Post 3: Halloween Costumes

One of the things I love most about Halloween is passing out candy and seeing all the cuties dressed up in their Halloween costumes! I'm going to miss that this year :(

This is my favorite! I can't wait till I have a little one of my own to dress up. If I have a little girl she will definitely at some point in time be a pink poodle for Halloween......LOVE IT!!

Clever, is all I have to say about this one.

This would be cute on a baby too and looks like it's comfy enough to wear the whole night.
