Pumpkin Patch 2011

 One of my favorite family traditions is going

to Right Choices Corn Maze every year. It's 

by far the best one I've ever found! So much

for the kids to do and only an hour away!!

 This was the first year to do the corn maze

together. Cruz was too little the last couple

years. The boys loved trying to find their 

way out of the maze!! Took us a minute,

but we made it out alive!!

 Couldn't resist taking some pics along the way

 My spunky little Cruz

 My handsome little Trevor

Going down the slide!! I had one of Cruz going

down but I think I posted so many pics blogger

went a little nutso?!

 Trev in the corn box. Probably the boys favorite

thing to do there. We spend a good portion of 

our time playing here.

 Thought this was cute of Cruz!!

 The boys and I on the hayride. My favorite

thing to do here. It's not really long but its

very relaxing!!

 The cow train!! Choo Choo, Moo Moo

 Racing ducks

 Pics a little out of order..oops

I tried to bury Cruz in the corn box but

he wasn't a fan!! lol

 Ok, here is Cruz making his way down slide!

His first year to go all by himself! Growing up 

too fast!!

 Pumping their own water is pretty hard work

 I think we need this at home! They would go to

bed on time for sure!! Working up a sweat!!

 Loving the corn box!!

 Eating his roasted marshmallow!!

 This was the first year we got to roast

 marshmallows! Daddy helped the boys and they 

loved it. We had to pretty much drag them away

 from the marshmallows.. I know what we will 

be doing when we get home!!

 Cruz picked out his pumpkin! Finally.

I think he changed his mind 10 times or more!!

Too many choices....

 We wound up with more than pumpkins in our

wheel barrow.....

Right Choices Corn Maze 2011 was once again

an absolute blast!! Made more great memories!!

Can't wait for next year!

Cruz is 2!!!!!

 Birthday boy!!

 He loved his birthday ballons!! Of course

he used them as a punching bag! lol

 Since his party was a couple weeks away, 

we just invited family over for a little

celebration. Here is mimi with some of the

kiddos.

 Cruz loved it when we sang happy birhtday

to him. Look at that sweet face!!

 And he eventually started singing along.

 I wonder what he wished for?

Now, this is my Cruz!!!

 

Cruz,

God has blessed me beyond words with you. 

You are such a spunky little guy and you bring

that trait into our family. We laugh until we cry

everyday at all the funny things you do and say.

You love to dance and sing. Play a little music

and your one happy little boy. You are already 

a great little athlete. You have a ton of agility

and keep up with the big kids.  You even come

to bubba's Sunday school class with us so you

can play with the big kids. You don't do well in the

nursery. You seriously have your own little

language and I love it. Everything you say

is adorable. Hard to understand, but adorable. :)

Your not really a big cuddle bear so I have to

get all my cuddles in at night time. Your just too

busy to settle down. Your always 

on a mission. You keep me on my toes. I can't turn

my back for a second because there is no telling what

on earth you might pull. God is teaching me so much

through you!!! Your a wild man, definitely "all

  boy"but you have such a big heart. You are very 

compassionate which makes me very happy.

 It's sweet to watch you care for others at only 2 years old.

 I love you and your adventurous little spirit. I can't

 wait to see all the things God does in your life!!

 

Invitation pictures

Taking pictures of two 2 year olds

is not the easiest job!! lol

But here a few I caught.

This was the winner! The boys 2nd

birthday party invitation picture.

Most of the pics looked a little more something

like this. 

Love this sweet smile!!

Cruz's 2nd Birthday party!

 Happy 2nd Birthday to my sweet baby!!

We had a joint party with Keegan

and since both the boys love sports

and their Razorback we had to do 

a Razorback Tailgate!!

 Set up was super cute, but the wind

was a monster that day. Not good for

pictures but great for cooling us off.

 I made these adorable little banners 

for the boys out of fabric. They were 

easy and added the perfect touch.

We used all red and white dishes

and this awesome red vintage

ice cooler. The table was too cute! 

 We smoked a ton of food!!! And of course 

had some yummy sides to go along

with it. 

 Totally obsessed with the Razorback 

cupcakes!! Perfect!!

 We decorated the tables

with the party favors. Pom Pons

for the girls, and red cow bells 

for the boys! We also had red 

inflatable number 1 hands! 

The kids loves it!

 The sweet birthday boys!

 Not too sure what Keegan is thinking

and Cruz wouldn't keep his fingers 

out of his mouth but it's their party

they can do what they want to. :)

 My little razorback calling the 

HOGS!!!

 Momma's with their boys!!

 These two are just as close as we 

were when we were little!! 

 Big snuggles with my man!!

 Can't forget about big brother!

He was the Boss Hog that day.

Too cute!!

 We played for a while on the playground, 

ate our yummy dinner and then it was

time for CAKE!! We sang happy birthday

to the boys and Cruz sang right along with

everyone!! He is too adorable!!

 They were both so proud of themselves

when they blew out their candles! They 

just clapped and clapped. YAY!

 Keegan finished his cupcake first. He looks

at Cruz and in their own little language ask

if he can have some of his.

 Sweet Cruz agrees and passes it over.

Now that's love right there!!

 Keegan takes a bite and gives it right back.

It was the funniest thing ever!!

 The boys opened their gifts...

 they are very blessed. Lots of 

friends and family came to celebrate 

these sweet boys. Everyone had a blast!!

Cruz had so much fun he just couldn't take it 

any longer!! He climbed up in mimi's lap 

and crashed!! What a party animal!!
