Disney World!

1st Stop: Magic Kingdom!

Caden loves his Uncle BJ!

1st Visit Button!

We made it inside!

Taking a lunch break.

Once we got home Caden said Dumbo was his favorite ride. Can you blame him? It is pretty cool.

2nd Stop: Sea World!

Giving Shamoo a hug.

The shows were amazing!

Caden and Grandpa hanging out by the fountain.

This is a guy that loves rides!

What a cute engineer!

Caden had so much fun with his cousin Graham!

This was probably the favorite ride at Sea World.

Santa followed us to Sea World!

3rd Stop: Epcot

Caden loved meeting all the characters!

Caden was a little shy at first, but that chaged as soon as he saw Donald (he loves Donald).

Sam felt at home in the England area.

The place where we stayed had a nice little pool in the back. We forgot Caden's swimsuit, but he made due.

4th Stop: Animal Kingdom!

The safari ride was amazing!

There was an awesome parade with the most beautiful floats. Unfortunately Caden fell asleep about 10 minutes before it started and missed the whole thing. I took lots of pictures for him though so he could see it later.

5th Stop: Sea World again!

We had a blast! It was a great week and we're glad we got to share it with family!

Preschool Field Trip to the Farm

Caden loved feeding leaves to the baby cows.

We even got to see a real cow being milked by a machine!

Of course he found the tractor...

This jumpy blob is so fun!

Caden has his dad's unnatural ability to fall asleep anywhere.

This is how I told Sam about baby "Peep" (or so Caden has named him). Sam was building our new mantel at the time so I thought he would see his present right away. I was wrong... Finally I got so impatient that I sent Caden in to point it out to him. :)

Birthday!!!

Opening Presents!

Caden really wanted a backhoe loader for his cake this year. So I gave it a shot.

We pretty much just played with his new toys all day.

I made a sheep pinata. It was hilarious because that thing would not crack! Caden and Marnie really had to work to get that thing open. :)

It was a great day!

"Scarecrows in the Gardens" at the Botanical Gardens

We went apple picking at an orchard and they had a petting farm. Caden still talks about the apples he got to shoot out of a cannon.

I'm not sure how this happened, but when I checked on him during a nap this is what I found. I guess it's good he likes books. :)

We went to a pumpkin patch to pick pumpkins! Caden's favorite part is always the tractor ride.

We painted pumpkins this year instead of carving them. Caden did a good job on his pumpkin's face. Then he decided it needed a little something extra, so the entire thing got covered in paint.

Marnie came to join us for our Trunk-or-Treat night. She and Caden had a lot of fun together!
