Our Mississippi Boy - Happy 6th Aiden

Halloween October 31, 2004 became one of the greatest days of our lives. We have been celebrating Aiden's Brithday for the past few days. Here are a few things we did: Friday, Aiden and Tanner had their Halloween parties at school. Aiden got to wear his costume to school. He was way excited about that. After school the H.S. football game had a state playoff game here in Enterprise - Hometown football is always the best - Kadin(my niece) danced with the drill team to "Thriller". After the game we hit the Elementry Halloween Carnival. Aiden and Tanner loved getting their faces painted. Aiden's favorite game was the ring toss - Saturday, we were up and at it early - Michael had a playoff game in Cedar City - His team played awesome..I think their BEST game so far. After the game we went out to eat for Aiden's Birthday - then hit up Walmart. Nana and Papa Dougherty sent him a gift card..it's always fun for them to pick out a toy themselves....thanks Nana and Papa - he was happy to get your Birthday call as well. After Walmart we headed back to Enterprise for trick- or- treating and went to Aiden's Birthday party at the Koopmans - Trav and I ended up taking Kinley and Aiden around trick-or-treating. Those kids were so cute. It was like each house was the first. Here in Utah they celebrate Halloween on Saturday if it falls on a Sunday:)...love that! Sunday Aiden was excited to get sung to at church. The primary here gave him a Birthday Can with goodies- My good hubby made Aiden's choice of dinner - Steak, shrimp and Trav's famous garlic mashed potatoes for the his Birthday dinner. Thanks to everyone for all the fun Birthday cards, gifts and phone calls. We love Aiden so much -he brings so much laughter and love to our family of boys.... Aiden helped me make pumkin cupcakes for his party - here he is at his party Saturday night.

Tanner and his buddies went trick-or-treating by themselves - here are some of the other cousins and friends at his party. Uncle Brandon made a really cool drink with dry ice:)

Here are Aiden and Tanner at their class parties...

Michael wore some crazy hair to the HS Football game Friday night..that child beats to his own drum. The kids had gone out on the sidelines to watch the drill team dance to "Thriller". Here are some pics at the carnival as well. Trav and Michael both went to different parties of their own Saturday night - yikes... I almost have 2 teenagers. They are such fun boys.
