Elmo's got the moves

It's fall and it's beautiful outside. We went out and took some cutesy pictures of oliver, you can see all of them on my photography blog. 

Also this past week chad and I went down to Minneapolis for a job interview for chad! We decided it was a good time to try going on our first trip without oliver. It was pretty fun to sleep in, nap in the car, go to a movie, and go from store to store not worrying about anything. And of course oliver did pretty good without us, and we were all very excited to see each other again! And now we are just waiting to hear back from chad's job.... 

 Rachel in the garden looking all classy.

Needle and a thread gotta get you out of my head.

I was looking through some old pictures and of course they are filled with pictures of little Oliver, and I had to share! These are when he was little over one month old. I just love him.... 

Look at how tiny he is!

I'm missing the sound of your heart beating.

This is the Birthday post! Chad and oliver had their birthdays. Chad is 27. Oliver is 1. Here is chads birthday, he had a racing theme. 

Classic.

Even Patrick Dempsey showed up...

 And here is Oliver's birthday.. It was yellow and blue dinosaur themed.

  I did a smash cake and he didn't quite get the idea...  so we tried giving him a spoon and seeing if that helped... and it did a little.. but he was still cute.

And I just love this picture because oliver is ridiculous. He was trying to lean really far back in his little chair..

And after oliver didn't eat his cake very well jordan took on the job of "smashing" it.

Pauses then says, you're my best friend.

Well... last week we went to Indianapolis and back for a big parr get together. It was Mckensie's birthday and baptism and the first time in about 5  years that all the parr kids were together.  It was pretty fun although I am not driving anywhere over an hour for a very very long time. I really liked getting to see Oliver with all his cousins and he did better then I thought he would. Now all he needs to do is go see his other cousins on the Tait side! Especially since he just got a brand new cousin a couple weeks ago!

We went to a very pretty park and got family photos taken. I took a couple pictures, but you know its awkward to to take pictures when you have a photographer doing it so.... haha.

We also went to the Indianapolis speed way, walked through the museum and rode a bus on the track.

Super fun day, we rented these bike things and rode around the canal downtown. Such a pretty downtown, I could go back there... right now.

Love Bridgers face in this one....

And kasey's in this one....

And Mckensies in this one...I think everyone was a pretty excited.

Loved this spot!

 On another day we went hiking and some people went kayaking.

This is Jordan's future album cover photo.

Love this one of oliver... cutie pants.

And lastly... the big day... baptism day.
