blast from the past

for years as a little girl,
i remember the highlight of fall being the parade and carnival downtown.
they have brought it back,
and i think i can speak for many when i say that we are so very thankful.
our children are getting to make memories similar to ones we made as children.

august wanted to be buzz lightyear for halloween this year.
mama-made pants and shirt paired with a real working jet pack made the perfect costume.

buzz with his superhero friends, spiderman and batman.

starting of the same parade kari and i walked so many times as children.

posing for pictures

thanks kari for getting one of me with the boys.
the belly has grown since the last picture where you could actually see it.

such a fun day making memories with kari again.
this time our boys got to join in on the fun!
