We've been so busy and blogging is one of the last things I get to these days! Here is a huge photo dump of the last couple months. Both kiddos are growing at a rapid rate and are in such different stages---it's so fun and busy! Jake is learning more words week by week and Evelyn is just becoming her own little person. Most of these pictures can speak for themselves!

I spy groceries plus a baby...
Pumpkin carving! Jake wanted a truck on his.
When Jake put Ev to sleep...
Playing the animal game for part of family night---Jake's favorite!

He demands most of the day where he wants Evie.
I took some pictures for a friend and we decided to take some with our tripod before they showed up!
Halloween! We were the Jake and the Neverland Pirate Crew (from Disney Channel), with our very own Jake as Jake.
Jake loved trunk-or-treating and kept running to trunks after it was over.
Jake loved trick-or-treating and got so excited every time the door opened!
Jake's haul---we hid it that night and Jake had no memory of it. ha! Trav and I scored big on that one.

Carolina JV basketball game---Jake loved clapping every time they scored and would say "uh-oh" when they didn't make the basket.
The secretary at daddy's school hooked Jake up with all sorts of snacks.
We went and saw Mockingjay 2 on opening weekend! Such a fun weekend. Love, love, love these ladies.
We drove to Virginia for the week of Thanksgiving! My sister Makell got married in the Washington DC temple. We were so Thankful it was just a few hour drive away! The first day we took the kids to the National Zoo where we met up with my friend Tamra from high school and her son.
Makell was such a beautiful, relaxed bride! I did a quick last minute braid in her hair before she left to the temple and was relieved that it worked out. She was just so great about everything and it made the day {and week} go perfectly!
Jake was done by the time the niece and nephew pictures happened!
