Finally, I am getting up some pictures. I have been a slacker at posting Abel pictures, so I know you all are waiting anxiously to see our precious pumpkin…so to start off this long post of photos, here is the star.

Don’t you just want to eat this pumpkin. I sure do. yummy!

I can’t stand it. He is gorgeous! I’m his mother, so I can say WHATEVER I want!

Cute pumpkin cousins

My handsome nephew, Josh, the boxer.

Allison and Graham (a 50′s couple if you couldn’t figure it out)

Here is a somewhat better picture of our costumes…Baseball Bat and Fly Ball.

Just to give you an idea at how my church goes all out. This is only half of it.

Seth and I worked this one game…I can’t remember the name, but you send the kids to jail if they don’t get matching dice and as you can see, this girl was going to jail. How mean is that game, but the kids must have loved going to jail because they kept coming back for more.

This picture is blurry, but that is what happens sometimes when other people use our camera to take pictures of us. Here is the family. It was madness trying to get everyone together.

(Kate & Matt are from Deal or No Deal (Howie Mandel and one of the Model suitcase girls)
How funny is his wig!!!

Our dear friends the Hammeruds. (Patti hosted my mom’s baby shower when she was pregnant with me.) aww.

Don’t they look amazing!

The best parents ever!

And I know you want to see more the of cutest pumpkin. Today, he is 5 months old. Can you believe it?
He was having a ball on Halloween. He couldn’t believe he was up past his bedtime.

The end. Don’t go far, more of the adorable Abel coming soon.

Thanks to Shauna’s boyfriend, Gabe, she is getting to come home to the states for just a few days. She is currently teaching at a school in Honduras for one year and wasn’t supposed to come home till Christmas. Since Gabe lives in PA, the whole family is meeting up to see her and, of course, so Abel’s grandparents can see him again.

I don’t have time for a long post or to display any recent photos since I have to pack and get us out of here by noon and I also have a heater maintenance guy coming this morning.

Our sweet boy has a mild case of croup, so please pray for him to heal quickly. Poor baby. He has this sad, raspy cry.

Be back soon…

I hesitated to post this picture because it doesn’t do our costumes any justice, but since I haven’t had time to download all the pictures we took last night, here is a Polaroid that we get taken every year.

Now, you have to look closely since this picture is dark, but if you do you can see Seth’s bat wings that we made out of a Dollar Tree black umbrella (pretty cleaver, uh?) and his bat ears on his hat, but again you must look closely in order to see them.

So, what are we???

Seth was a Baseball Bat and I was a Fly Ball. Hahaha…aren’t we funny. It was all Seth’s grand idea. And of course our little guy is the cutest pumpkin ever. Again, this photo doesn’t do any justice on just how cute our precious pumpkin was, but I wanted to get something up.

More Halloween pictures to come. Just wait till you see my parents!
