Halloween was AWESOME this year. Not only did both boys love trick-or-treating, but they loved passing out the candy at Nana’s house even more. It was so cute to see them loading up other kid’s bags with treats. Sweet. Cute. Fun. Awesome. Already looking forward to next year! This mama is still smiling.
Now for the costumes…
Jak — in keeping with the Jak-themed costumes — was……JAK FROST.

Maguire had to have something that went with his big bro…well, in an opposite sorta way anyway. Introducing MR. GOLDEN SUN.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Bring on Halloween. The Blakeney boys are ready…
Jakzen is 43 months old today — 5 months away from the big FOUR. Right now, he’s upstairs, sound asleep. Right now the house is quiet. That will change in a few short hours. Our days are never boring, that’s for sure. Today Maguire was outside and I was calling him thru the window, trying to get him to come inside. Jakzen came over, pushed me outta the way and said, “Mom, let me handle this. I can do this because I’m a big bruzzer (brother).” So he called Maguire, and Maguire came. For him. Not me. And then he was so proud of himself. Just one of the many ways he made me smile today.
He’s quickly leaving the toddler world behind and so super, crazy fast becoming a boy — a full-on likes-to-wrestle, loves-He-man, so-excited-to-try-new-things, busy, sweet, caring, goofy boy. I love seeing things thru his eyes, and even more, I love how his pure enthusiasm for the littlest things forces me to slow down and enjoy ‘em right along with him. 
This photo was taken when we were camping this summer. There was a fire ban so we had to make our s’mores on the BBQ.
Jak didn’t mind. In fact, he gave ‘em his full, whole-hearted approval.
This is such a typical photo of our 2 dudes — they love each other, but they are also always *this close* to beating on each other.
