To Infinity and Beyond! There's a Snake in my Boot!









Of course Cole HAD to be Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story for Halloween. There was no question. So, we may as well dress Grant as Sheriff Woody! We had fun taking the boys to UMD to trick-or-treat in the dorms. We met up with our friends Josh and Amanda and their kids, Firefighter Max and Lila the Duck. They had Disney games, cookie decorating, and lots of trick-or-treating for the kids, and we got to stay inside! Afterward we trick-or-treated at Grandma and Grandpa Sharrow's house and their neighbor's house. Lots of candy was eaten. What a fun Halloween!

Grant on the run!


Sleeping angel...

Hey! Why did you wake me up?
I think this is the glare I will get when I wake him up as a teenager...only worse!
Luckily he wasn't crabby for long! Back to happy Grant!

We are back to the baby gate these days as Grant is just starting to try crawling...but he has mastered the army crawl - scoot! He loves being mobile and able to get where he wants and what he wants....we are not so sure! We can't let him out of our sight!

Bathtime!






Grant can sit up better these days so we decided to try a bath without the baby bathtub. The boys seemed to enjoy it and had fun playing together.

Thursday we drove to Hibbing to have our family pictures taken. Hope to post some of those pics soon!

October Harvest Fun

Brotherly love

Getting reading for pajama day at Miss Nora's and Miss Nicole's....Toy Story, of course!



We went to this super fun corn maze in Wrenshall and had a blast
trying to find our way out...until Cole had to go potty....Sorry!!
Finally we found our way out!


Riding the Pumpkin Train on the North Shore Scenic Railroad


....which stops a a "pumpkin patch" which, believe it or not, is the
field area behind Miss Nora's house! She and Nicole came out to greet us!Cole was NOT cooperative during the photo op. When we drive to Hibbing later this week for our family photos, he had BETTER behave better.

Grant supervised the pumpkin carving


We had to carve....who else? Buzz Lightyear!Buzz seemed happy with his likeness.

Congratulations Uncle Todd and Aunt Stephanie!

I guess we need to photoshop Grant into this pic!

Celebrate!!

On Saturday, October 3, Ryan's brother Todd tied the knot with Miss Stephanie Findley, making her officially part of the Sharrow family. The Sharrow family has added three new members this year: Grant, Mikala, and now Stephanie!

Despite the miserably dismal rainy, cold weather on October 3, the wedding was beautiful and we enjoyed the company of friends and extended family. Luckily for us, Grandpa and Grandma Iverson were able to come and spend the weekend with us so that Cole and Grant could be a part of the festivities, while also allowing Mom and Dad to be active wedding party participants. Whew! It was a little crazy, but we had a blast and couldn't be happier for the new couple. Congratulations, Uncle Todd and Aunt Stephanie!!
