Neighborhood Halloween Parade/Party

My red power ranger.  He has been so excited about this costume for months.  And Chase had fun helping with our little bit of Halloween spirit.  I am no Aunt Kara but we try.
We woke Bryce up after only a 30 min. nap.  Not happy, but he was a super cute hedge hog.
Chase and his buddy Spencer.  The party was at our little neighborhood park Senior Center.  The fall here is so pretty with all the colors.  But there are lots and lots of leaves to rake.

 Chase loving the fire engine.  The fire engine led our parade.  The kids loved it.
Chase and Sophie(Becca Brough has some competition)
Neighborhood Parade
 Chase and Sophie held hands the whole parade around the neighborhood.



 Chase was first up for the pinata and made the first dent.  He loves this stuff.
 Can you find Bryce?
 So sweet.

Halloween Train and Chase's Fall Preschool Program

 This past Thursday night we met Cole at Cabin John park for their happy Halloween train ride and to play at their really fun park.

Chase's fall preschool program was cute. They sang a few songs, decorated a bag, and had some ice cream.  Chase's buds are Ryan(front middle), Nnamdi(front, second from left), and Harrison(top, second from right).  He is funny, because I asked him who he plays with at school and he always tells me he likes the boys, not the girls.

Soccer Bugs and Fearful Floaters


Here is Chase at his weekly soccer bugs class.  It is a really cute class and Chase just loves it.  He will take maybe a 15 sec. break when the coach says get water and then he is right back at it.  And he loves to be right by the coach.  And he is super competitive.  Luckily he is fast, so when they play games he is usually one of the last ones tagged.



Bryce loves Chase's soccer and swim class because he gets to play on the ipad.  Too cute.

Chase is slowly getting better at his fearful floater class.  He is learning how to swim but still won't go under the water.  So we will be doing another round of fearful floaters.

"Duck and Goose Find a Pumpkin" (Our Fav. Halloween Book)

I am in love with the above photo.  The boys and I had a great day at Gaver Farm Pumpkin Patch right outside Frederick, Maryland.  The weather was perfect and the trees were beautiful.  These boys are so much fun right now, I don't want them to get any older.  Bryce has the cutest voice and loves to repeat everything you say.  And Chase gets smarter by the day.  They are both so sweet, we are so blessed.  Cole and I know were will look back on these days fondly.



 As Bryce says, "Ma, punkin,""Ma, Halowee".

 Chase walking down toward the pumpkin patch.
 Chase loves to tell everyone he is growing and getting bigger because he eats his vegetables.  I think he is.


 Bryce and Chase love the mazes.  Couldn't take too many photos in here because they were too fast.

 Loving Maryland's fall colors




 "Ducky, Ducky, Ducky," as Bryce would say.  And Chase loved the one blue duck.
 Making corn angels in the huge corn crib they had.


 Jumping Pillow time.  Chase's all time favorite and Bryce was starting to get the hang of it.
