About Me

Our adventure started on a beautiful June day in 2004. Fast forward 12 years and now we are the proud parents of 3 active, beautiful boys. Nathan, Bracken, and Marco. We call Prescott Valley, Arizona home and are constantly reminded that there is never enough time to accomplish and experience everything we think we want. Life with a young family is precious and simplicity is our ongoing quest.

Halloween

We started out our Halloween celebrations with the story time trick-or-treating around the library. At first Nathan didn't want to leave the Kid's Space area with all the fun things to climb on, but he soon realized that it was fun to walk around and have people give him little trinkets that he got to keep. The rear view is adorable.
Nathan insisted on taking this soccer ball to trunk-or-treat. He had a blast kicking it around on the grass around the church. Nathan loved the "nana" that came with the costume. He held on to it most of the time and would shoe it to everyone that talked to him.
A few people had orange balloons decorating their trunks and Nathan kept going back to them. In fact we never made it to the other end of the parking lot because he went back and forth between his favorites ones, the ones with balloons. Eventually someone was kind enough to give him one and he was thrilled. At some point Nathan ripped the wrapper off a tootsie pop by himself and he would not let the thing go.
At the end of the evening he was one sweaty, happy kid.
I decided to make Nathan's treat bag. I wanted something cute and original and just his size.

We never did get Nathan so say "Trick-or-treat" but he fully embraced every other aspect of Halloween. He loved his costume, his bag full of candy, the other kids wearing costumes and of course the balloons.
