Duke's 3rd Bday

 This year, with the move coming up, four weddings last month, Halloween, and a crazy brain, I decided to opt out of a big birthday party for Duke (sorry D) but since it was the last time we were going to get to spend as a family for a while we did go ahead and have a Halloween themed get-together. We had the boys wear their costumes (Jensen is in loooove with his dragon).

We had a donut on a string contest....hilarious.

After so many antics from the little boys to get these donuts off their strings, we were excited to see the big boys try...

The excitement didn't last long...

And done.

Everyone (including Kiki) getting ready for the pie eating contest...

And they're off...

Coming up for air.

Duke pinning the smile on the pumpkin (Jensen and Parker tied for first on this one-- Jensen later told me that he had assumed that because he could so obviously see under the bottom of the blindfold that that must have been part of the game....)

Excited with a job well done

Duke was in raptures while the whole crowd sang to him

And out they go! A big thank you to everyone who was able to come celebrate with us, and lots of love to everyone who was far away!
