Baptism/Birthday/Halloween Party

After the baptism we had a combo party inviting some friends and family over. It started out with our neighborhood Halloween parade. Parker was dressed as Frankenstein (and held on to Dylan's pirate hook!)

Dylan was a pirate. A very shy pirate! Especially in front of strangers or the camera! :)

My cousin Carla and her son, Will (who hated his hat) :) and Matt with Parker and Dylan. 

Chaos trying to get all the kids to look at the camera! My cousin, Sean's 4 kids, Carla's son, and our boys. So funny! 

After the parade, we headed back to the house for some food and good times with everyone. Parker barely took any nap at all that day. It was a miracle he wasn't more moody! :) And when it was time for his cake, I dont think Parker ate ANY of it, he just smashed it up.

The boys got spoiled with so many generous gifts.

 My attempt at a semi-crafty goodie bag: individual Smores kits - complete with graham crackers, chocolate, and a marshmallow ghost Peep! :)

The day was perfect! We are so blessed to be able to share it with such wonderful friends and family. And a HUGE thanks to Matt's mom for all her hardwork and help getting everything ready! We wouldn't have pulled it off on our own!
