FALLing in Love with Evan All Over Again!

This past weekend was some classic fall weather. You just can't beat it. Even though I'm one of the few that hate to see Summer slip by, I do have an appreciation for the beauty of Fall.

So does Evan!!!
I think Fall colors agree with Evan.

So Daddy was hanging out in the backyard while Evan was playing with his Wagon that Grandpa Don gave him.
When out of NOWHERE.....BAM!! Right into Daddy!!
Is Daddy ok???
Evan loves Daddy's John Deere. As soon we let him outside he goes right up and climbs aboard! Won't be long before he's helping Dad mow the lawn!!
Evan really loved pulling the wagon up and down the street!

But it's even more fun to pull DADDY!!


Make sure you don't put me out with the yard waste on Wednesday!
But now it's time to put the wagon away.

Random Acts of Cuteness

Since I'm the luckiest mom EVER and get to spend my days, nights and everything in between with Evan it is my job in life to take pictures of his cute little face and post them here.

Evan is so full of personality and is always goofing off. He loves to laugh, giggle and makes you do the same!!
Do you see a bit of evil in his eyes??? UH-OH!! Are the terrible 2's lurking behind them??
Evan and his BBF (Best Bear Friend)
Laughing as usual! Sadly, November 22nd at 9:20 A.M. Evan will receive his very first haircut.

One thing Evan loves is a good snack!! As soon as you sit down with one he hops right into your lap. Although I think he enjoys the act digging them out of their box, bag or container more than actually eating them!!

MMMM, Whole Grain Cheddar Goldfish!

The other day Evan was enjoying one of his other favorite past times...wearing big shoes!!!
There's always time to watch college football with Daddy!!
Evan liked the pumpkins but carving them sort of freaked him out. So maybe next year he'll enjoy that more!!

What are these mommy????

A little close and blurry....but still cute as button!!!

Halloweeeeeen

Happy Halloween!!

Last year Evan represented Koren's Alma Mater Marshall University.

So this year he represented the United States Marine Corps. His big brother Chris had hooked him up with this super cool digital cami uniform and OFFICIAL USMC booney hat. I mean, seriously have you seen a cuter marine under the age of 5??


So here we are at home...getting ready to go trick or treating. I even made him a name tape that said "Kiracofe". Not the official font, but it's all I had on my sewing machine.

Also not regulation was this most excellent Marine Corps Patch his dad let him borrow.

All smiles ready to beg for candy....

Our 1st stop is always "Grandpa Don's" house. He's our next door neighbor and he and Evan get along very well!


Dad showing Evan the ropes of trick or treating He's done it a few times before! Evan's sister and brother once trick or treated these same streets! :)


This is Evan and our neighbor Bethany. She's 8 and a dinosaur. How cute are they? Maybe this is Evan's future babysitter!


Then of course we met up with Evan's BGFF McKenzie. He hopped right into her wagon. These kids today are so spoiled!!HAHA Some neighbors were kind enough to hand out pretzels. Which Evan devoured!! He hasn't had any candy yet, which I think is just fine! I did offer him and M&M, but he just threw it around and played with it. For those of you out there who think I'm cruel!!

McKenzie was so adorable as Dorothy...and her dog Ashley was along as Toto!!

How about this for door to door service? Steve (Spring's husband and McKenzie's Daddy, although how can you read this blog and not know that by now???) is holding ToTo and Jim is pulling the King and Queen!!!
After Evan (and possibly mommy and daddy) tired of trick or treating he helped us hand out candy. It was so cute. He would pull the candy from the bucket and stack it on porch.


If he only knew how adorable he looks!!


There was plenty of time to goof off with Daddy.


Looking up at stars and airplanes. He gets this from his dad and brother.


I just thought this picture was so cute.
