Labor Day Weekend

Our Labor Day Weekend was relaxing and full of fun! 

Thursday night I had a hair appointment and as soon as I got home Elle and I got to work decorating the house for Fall...because if it's September that means it is Fall in the Hylton house!



Oliver wanted to help but he did more damage in eating any glitter/decor he could get his little hands on. 

Friday night Eric worked so the babies and I went home, ordered Imo's and played on the deck.  The kids fought over bubbles and drew tons of pictures with chalk. 


This baby boy just kills me with his cuteness!!!




Ollie has been so intrigued with this Halloween decoration.  As we were unloading all of our Fall decor I didn't' have a place for it so I just stuck it on this door knob and was going to deal with it later.  Once Ollie noticed it I heard him saying, "look! look! look!" and pointing at the witch. Later in the weekend I found him trying to feed her bites of his pizza. :)

I think he is trying to stay on her good side.





Saturday night we had Hylton Family movie night and rented the Jungle Book. 


Elle did get her first taste of a Pumpkin Spice Latte this weekend.  I let her try a sip because I figured she would hate it but she LOVED it.  She kept asking for more drinks and saying "this is our best friend drink" which in the language of Sissy means it belongs to both of us now!





Sunday Eric took Elle golfing and Ollie and I went shopping and out to lunch with Mary and Mom.  




Eric said Elle did great and was such a great listener. Towards the end I think she was done with the actual golfing and sat in the cart and drew me this picture and picked me this flower.  She is the sweetest girl!


My beautiful girl taking a nap.


After Elle's nap the two of us met Mary and the boys at the theater to see Pete's Dragon.  The kids all loved the movie. There was cheering, clapping and 3 little babes who couldn't stop talking about Elliot the dragon.

We ended the weekend on Monday with a BBQ at my parents house. The kids played outside, the jumped in the bounce-house and just had so much fun.  Nights like this are my absolute favorite.


I swear this boy knows he can do no wrong at MawMaw and PawPaw's house.  I love watching him go in MawMaw's pantry and fill his little hands with as many KitKats as he can carry. :)

End of Summer

In my eyes we are currently sitting in Fall so here is a look at how we wrapped up our summer!

Earlier this summer my mom and dad took Elle and Henry to a dinosaur exhibit. I love this pic my dad sent me!


Me and my girl on our way to breakfast before going to Target to shop for school supplies with MawMaw, MiMi and Henry. 


Cappucino's gave her a little bag of school supplies to celebrate the tax free weekend. :)



Ollie was pretty excited about the Minion lunchbox MawMaw bought for him.


This boy is way too cute!


We've spent a lot of time after dinner on the deck eating popsicles and blowing bubbles.


Helping me make my coffee, I love this Anna nightgown of hers!


At Harper's house celebrating her 3rd birthday!


Ollie was trying to attack the ball. :)


These two are about a year apart and close to the same size. :)



My beautiful girl!


And my crazy little boy!


Elle saw these at the store one day and asked if we could get them.  She thought they were the one's with the terrible flavors but they were all good. 

It's funny that she wanted them so badly thinking they were the bad jelly beans, :)


Trying on his outfit for Unc's wedding and the cuteness almost killed me!


We ran to WalMary for a quick trip for milk one night after dinner.  I completely forgot they sold fish and we just happened to walk past them so of course that slowed things down for us. 

I can see a fish in our future.


We went to the mall one day to buy new shoes for Elle for school and these two had to stop for a ride.


And then Eric scared me to death by letting Ollie stand on the escalator. 


While Sissy was napping one day Ollie and I shared an ice cream cone.  But really I made it and he stole it and ran to his couch in the living room.

He gets away with so much because he is way too cute!!


First day of school breakfast!  She woke up happy, excited and ready to go!


Fun at MawMaw and PawPaw's!



He loves playing with cars and trucks!


Stopping for a picnic lunch at Festival of the Little Hills.  Mary and Henry were in line at Tony's for nachos and Bear had finished his entire lunch before they got back. :)



Celebrating MawMaw and PawPaw's birthday!


Each kid (except Ollie) took a turn with dad making smores.




Sweet girl can still fast asleep at the drop of a hat.


Still getting the hang of stearing her bike.



Oliver's Toy Story obsession just keeps growing.


On this night he waled around with Jessie and Buzz all night and ended up taking them to bed.

I found out the root of Elle's Buzz obsession fromlast year, she has a crush! She told me the other night she thinks he is really cute!


These two LOVE to play in the landscaping rocks.  I can sit in a lawn-chair with my coffee and watch them play all morning.


Elle is doing SO GREAT in school!  Her second day of drop off there were some serious tears, I dropped her off in gym and this was a no-go for Roni.  Every other day I have done the carpool line and an 8th grader walks her to her classroom and she has done so amazing!

She is in the same grade as the little girl behind her, my girl is the tall girl in class! :)


We had a really fun summer but bring on all things Fall!
