Halloween + Fort Worth part 2

Saturday 
On Saturday we set our alarms and woke up super early to go cheer on our cousin Kaylie at her soccer game. It was so cold. And so much fun. I've never been one to get into soccer but it was so much fun watching her. Not to mention she is only 5, and she scored 14 times within a hour!! They basically won because of her ;)

It was so cute watching how excited Giuliana was watching her. She even asked if she could play and tried walking towards the field. Before I know it, I will be a soccer mom.

After the game we went back to Melony and John's house. We ate some leftover chili from Halloween, which I was obsessed with. Once we ate and changed diapers we headed to the Forth Worth Zoo. Which, I'm also obsessed with. The zoo here in San Antonio does not compare. Although we got to the zoo around 1ish, we had no idea that the zoo closed so early! The zoo closed at 4 and we only made it half way through, I was a little disappointed that we missed all of my favorite animals but I know it won't be our last trip.

Sunday

We were suppose to head back home after the Dallas Cowboys game but Jaxon got sick. Poor baby was throwing up so bad. It's always so hard to see the babies when they are sick. I feel so helpless.
So we stayed another night.
Monday
Not much happened, we packed the truck and went to see our niece, Sophia, before we hit the road to go back home. She is so big and so cute!

Halloween 2014 + Ft. Worth part 1

This year we decided back in summer that we would make a trip to Fort Worth for Halloween. Both Giuliana and Jaxon are at that fun age where they can both really enjoy everything. My husband has a lot of family in Fort worth who have children close in age to ours, so I knew it would be so much fun for both kids. We left San Antonio late Thursday evening and got to Forth Worth around 10. I have been so excited about this trip since we decided to go. Giuliana's God parents live in Forth Worth and we are so close. It's always so fun to see them!

Friday morning was so crazy. Halloween traffic as AWFUL. Awful, I tell ya. We made a last minute stop to Party City for Mikey's costume and the line was insane. Literally wrapped around the entire store. And I was not going to wait when I had six dollars worth of balloons. So off to another store we went.

I can't even put into words how cute Mikey, Giuliana and Jaxon looked. I've been counting down the days to Halloween for weeks. This year I decided to make the boys Halloween costumes. We saw the movie UP for the first time a couple months ago and Jax was obsessed. I knew right there that he would be the cutest Russell I ever did see. At first I had no interest in making Mikey, Carl Fredrickson. But then it just seemed too perfect not to.

Introducing Carl Fredrickson

I wasn't expecting for this Halloween project to be so expensive. But before I knew it, I was at Hobby Lobby spending $100. That was just my first trip, I made multiple trips to Hobby Lobby before we left. It was well worth it. I loved how it came out. We bought the suit used a thrift store in town. We walked out with the jacket and pants for a whooping total of $13. AAAAHHHMAAAZIINGGG.

I took these pictures the weekend before Halloween. I love them so much, I can't wait to print them.

Introducing the most purrrfect kitty

ever

Anyways, fast forwarding to Halloween 

Jaxon didn't nap much Friday so the boys went inside early and Giuliana and I went without them. Not to mention it was pretty chilly Friday night. Although we wish they were both there we had so much without them and every house we went to complimented Giuliana and her purfect costume. Can't blame them, right? ;)
