It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....

I am on a ROLL! This is the last post until probably after Christmas, but I HAD to post about our decorating this year because Isaac was SO into it! He is totally mesmerized by all of the lights and decor. He insisted on helping with ALL of the decorating, so it took us a little longer than normal this year. We did inside decor one day, outside lights one day, put the tree up another day, lit the tree another day, and finally decorated the tree today. He tended to go with the "cluster" method with the ornaments and put them all on top of each other...but I think it works. ;) Here are some photos from the fun...

Decorating....Isaac style....

The ornaments would be lonely if they were all spread out, right? ;)

He found the school bus ornament I got at his baby shower 3 years ago. He's obsessed with school buses, too, so this made it night!

Finding the perfect spot...

Isaac the Star!!

Putting the star on top with Daddy...

Look what we did!

So proud of his handy work! :)

Thanksgiving 2K10

Thanksgiving was a whirlwind this year of family! We did the weekend before Thanksgiving in Dallas with the Ramsour family, then Thanksgiving Day in Liberty Hill with Jessica's aunt and cousins. Then we continued the tradition of the Irwin Weekend After Thanksgiving Feast...this year hosted by Jessica's sister, Sarah. It was TONS of fun, and the Italian feast we prepared was AMAZING! Love family time! Here are a few shots....

Halloween 2K10..I know, I'm behind!

Isaac is obsessed with Thomas the Train right now, so it was a logical choice for him to be Thomas for Halloween. He REALLY got into wearing his costume this year, and going up to the houses and saying "Trick or Treat" and "Thank You!" We had our annual Halloween party again, and played a few more games now that the kiddos are older, like Pin the Tail on the Cat. The kiddos decorated their own cupcakes for dessert, and then we all went our seperate ways for trick or treating. Isaac was sooo hyper when it was all done that it took forever to get him to sleep!! He would get so excited to pass out candy to the trick or treaters every time the bell rang. Definitely a blast this year! Here are a few photos from the night....

Thomas the Train

One of the best group shots..it was REALLY HARD!

(Taylor and Landon were cowgirl/cowboy, Gracie was Sleeping Beauty, Mia was a ladybug, Isaac was Thomas, Samantha was a Kitty Cat, and Emma was Fancy Nancy.) The two babies, Madison (a ballerina) and Aaron (Yoda) were busy with their mommies during the photo ops. :)

Eyeballing his loot...

Silly Daddy...that's MY candy!

The annual playing in the party balloons continues...

The shirt says it all... "Can't Sleep...Must Eat Candy!"
