Aiden's 6th birthday party!

We had Aiden's birthday party on 10 Nov in our backyard.  The weather was perfect and everyone had a great time!  We'll be visiting Matt's family over Thanksgiving break, which will include Aiden's real birthday, so we'll have another celebration while we're there.

Halloween!

Halloween this year was boo-riffic!  Aiden went as Captain Jack Sparrow, and I made Maura's costume.  I'll let you guess what she is...*

Cheese!

Here's a hint...she's a bird of some sort...

Captain Jack Sparrow and his sidekick

The cuteness!

Aiden is such a great big brother

Cuteness overload!!

*Maura was mis-identified as a turkey (yes, a turkey) and a phoenix (um...no.).  Have you guessed what she was yet?? :)
