Happy 2nd Halloween!

 A year ago we had an 11 day old baby on Halloween, this year we have a 1 yr old toddler! How the time flies!

Wyatt's friend Grant came over to celebrate his first Halloween. 

  

Trunk or Treat at St. Paul's UMC

Our church has Trunk or Treat each year. Usually it's held outside, hence Trunk or Treat; but this year it was too cold so the fun was moved to the indoors and it became Table or Treat - I guess that's what you would call it!

I had secretly snagged a second costume from a friend of mine just for this day. I knew it would be a hit and that Matt would get a kick out of it. Everyone at church loved Matt's "guitar". The costume is even the same color as the one he really plays on Sundays!

Lancaster Barnstomers

We got invited to celebrate Patrick receiving an Unsung Hero Award, by getting to watch a Lancaster Barnstormer game from a sky box complete with soda and food. We've had a pretty cold fall, so Wyatt and myself watched most of the game from inside "the box". 

Patrick is the worship leader's son and is interested in pursuing a career in sound so naturally they have had a lot to talk about. 

The boys watching the game outside while the sun is still out. Once it went behind the clouds Wyatt and I went inside.

 Congrats Patrick, make sure to put this down on your college application!

One of our first of many outings to Hershey Park

Again, another post catch up completed in Jan 2012.

We did the math and looking at getting a pool pass was going to cost us almost the same amount as Hershey Park passes and the pool pass would only be good for the summer season....hmmm sounds like Hershey pass is the better deal! We also have the discovery pass so we get in to the Hershey Story and the Hershey Gardens free as well as 15% off at Cafe' Zooka. 

The entrance to the park with our Passes!

Ready to check out the park!

 We walked around the park and enjoyed the weather. With Wyatt only being 8 months old we don't ride on too many rides, but walking the park is a lot of fun too! 

We are able to go on the Kissing Tower, which has turned out to be one of Wyatt's favorite rides.

Near the kissing tower there was a Hershey Kiss! Wyatt had to go over and say "hi!"

Kisses from momma!

We also rode the antique cars. 

Daddy drove while Wyatt and momma rode as backseat drivers :)

The circus came to town....to Hershey Giant Center that is

Happy that the Circus had an afternoon show- with Wyatt's current nap schedule this worked for us!  We enjoyed our little walk over the bridge to the Giant Center.  7 month's old and ready for his first circus!

We went in May, this post was actually typed in Jan 2012!

Love a man that wears a baby! Saves my healing back and he looks so good wearing Wyatt!

We decided not to go to the early show outside, it was very warm. A little too warm for Mr. Wyatt.

We bought our tickets and stayed inside the air conditioning until they opened the doors.

Wyatt wore his elephant outfit for the circus. I just love his sun hat- kept him sunburn free the whole summer. (I can say that because I am writing this post in Jan 2012!)

Before the start of the show we got to go on the floor and check out some of the acts close up.

Wyatt meets his first clown- we think he looked like Pop Eye.

Wyatt really liked the clowns. I've never had a fear of clowns; but I know others do. Hopefully Wyatt will not be afraid of clowns. :)

The show had a lot of music and lights! 

Wyatt made it through most of the show and then it was nap time in the baby carrier while mom and dad enjoyed the rest of the show and some cotton candy!
