One of my FAVORITE weekends of the year (part 2)

So it took a little lot longer than I thought it would to finish this blog.  The second part of why I love this weekend is because of 2 reasons.  One being Rooke (Garrett's best buddy).  This is his birthday weekend.  His parents always have a fun party and this year was no exception!  It was a Pirate football theme party.  LOVE IT!  His parents even made a "mini field" on their lawn and they were able to play football.  It looked like the ECU field, but smaller and Happy Birthday Rooke on it!  ha!  Here are a few pictures:

How cool is that????  We just love Rooke and his family!  They are real special to us and this is so much fun.


The other reason we love this weekend is because it is Halloween!!!  We have celebrated with Rooke and his family each year now.  We usually go to our parents houses the night before to let them see Garrett's costume.  Last year he was supposed to go as a cheeseburger.  Well, we have a stubborn little guy and he REFUSED to put it on!  So I got crafty and made him a shirt to wear since he can't read.  Remember this:

That's right folks, that is what he used as a costume last year!

I was a little worried this year we would have the same problem, but he was into it this year!  He was the cutest Buzz Lightyear ever!  ha!  Actually him and Rooke both were Buzz Lightyear!  They were quite the duo!  We are very fortunate to have such a great group of friends that were able to come out and Trick-Or-Treat together.  I think that there were 6 families that came out.  I cherish all the time together. 
We didn't get a long time together because of the rain...boo!  Although, it was just enough time together.  Here are some pictures from our Halloween :-)

This was trying to get everyone in the picture.  Still missing a couple.  The rest of the pictures wouldn't upload but I will try again later! 
I LOVE THIS WEEKEND!!!
