Happy Birthday/Halloween Braxton

Come check out my new blog at BeingGenevieve.com


I can't believe it is almost Thanksgiving and I haven't posted any pictures of Braxton's birthday/Halloween. Braxton turned one on the 30th of October, aka the day everyone went trick-or-treating this year. Braxton's birthday was a fun/crazy day of cooking and running around for mom. I made a ghost and bat cake in the morning, homemade chili (Halloween tradition) in the early afternoon, and breadsticks in the late afternoon. Then we had Grandma and Grandpa Hill over for dinner, presents, cake and ice cream, and then we had to hurry and dress up to go trick-or-treating. By the time it hit 8 pm I was a sleep on the couch. We had a wonderful day! Braxton LOVED ripping the paper off of presents and seeing what was inside.
Braxton as a dragon for Halloween! He LOVED being in his costume! Kevin was a pirate and I was a witch, but the picture with all of us turned out too blurry.
Our pumpkins, Jack the Halloween king from the Nightmare before Christmas and Tinkerbell.

Braxton's cakes that I hand carved and all I have to say is that it isn't as easy as I thought it would be!

Braxton One Year Photos

Braxton found Kevin's apple on the computer desk that he forgot to take to work.
Braxton turned one on the 30th of October.  We had a great little celebration and then went trick-or-treating.  Braxton was a pro at opening presents. Who would have though?  I will add pictures of his birthday a little later.

Since Braxton is now one we went out on Saturday and did a little photo shoot (luckily since it has been snowing ALL day today.  Here is a preview of a few pictures.  If you would like to see more please click here.
