I HEART hugs!

The Sharps came over for dinner tonite, and we couldn't resist snapping a few pics of our adorable boys greeting each other with hugs. We love that they are friends, too!
I just love how Jacob is leaning over to put his head on Aaron's shoulder in the last picture.
How precious and innocent!

Lions and Tigers and... Skunks?!? Oh, MY!

Halloween this year was nearly an afterthought, when it was rescued by Sarah's phone call: "Can I bring over my little trick-or-treater to see you guys?" When she and Aaron arrived, they convinced me not to wait until Gary got home to go get the costumes out of the attic above our garage. (I REALLY don't like that place, so this was a big deal.) Lori and Rob had given us all of Casey's old costumes, and I went to find the one that would fit him this year, not remembering all that was up there. Much to my delight, I found this ADORABLE lion costume! I quickly gathered the light-brown overalls and Jacob was good to go. Daddy was VERY happy when he came home!

Here is Aaron in his CUTE skunk costume
(what a little stinker)
with Jakey on the porch:

And my baby lion - I just loved the pic of his little behind!

The Sharp family has become some of our best buddies - both Mommy & Daddy's and Jacob's! In late July the Sharps kept Jacob while Daddy took Mommy out for her birthday (Yay - Greek food!). Aaron and Jacob got to have a splashing party before bedtime. Check out these great photos, compliments of Sarah Sharp. I CAN'T RESIST the bubble mohawk!!! :)
