Happy First Birthday To Our Crazy Monkey!

It is absolutely amazing to me that one year has already gone by. Our lives have changed so much in the past year. We are so thankful every day for the day that Landon was born and how he has completed our family of 4!

We had a great weekend of celebrating Landon's 1st birthday.

There was some Cake!

There were some Presents!

But most importantly there was LOTS of family! Thanks to everyone joined us in celebrating our sweet Landon's first Birthday!

It is hard to believe that next week our little guy will be one year!

Brother Photo Op!

Last weekend we had Landon's 1 year pictures taken. We also got a few shots or our Big Boy and some brother photos. It was a cool afternoon, but the boys showed their best smiles.

Trick-or-Treat!

Halloween 2010 was a great weekend for the Eckhoff boys. We started off the weekend carving pumpkins, on Saturday we went to the 1st Annual Timpane Halloween Party and then the boys finished off the weekend with some trick or treating around the neighborhood. Unfortunatly, I pulled a muscle in my back bending down to pick up Landon at the Halloween party so Jeremy took the boys trick or treating and I spent the night in a dark house so that no one would come to the door. I felt a little bah-humbug but there was no way I could get up 50 times to pass out candy.

We were able to snap a couple quick photos of the whole group at the Halloween Party. But due to the fact that there were 17 kids there we couldn't get them all to participate at the same time.


My friends Tricia and Sarah along with her little guy Maverick came over to trick or treat with the boys so that Jeremy had an extra hand if he needed it.





Peyton loves our neighbor Sarah and they had a great time playing aroudn as she passed out candy.


The boys had a great weekend, and as you can see Landon even got to enjoy one of the treats. Good think Mom wasn't there...

All Geared Up!

Thursday night we made the trip to Play it Again Sports to purchase all the necessary gear for our soon to be hockey player. Needless to say, we spent a couple hundred dollars and walked out with everything from skates to a bag.

When we arrived home the first thing this little hockey play did was dive into his new bag and want to try on ALL of the equipment. He was so adorable. I will think this now that the equipment is not all stinky and sweaty. I am going to enjoy the fresh smell of new equipment while it lasts because after living in a house with two hockey players in high school I know how bad it can get.

Vegas Baby!

Jeremy and I took a much needed vacation this past weekend to Las Vegas to see my brother Sam get married. He had the time of our lives. I am still trying to recover from the lack of sleep.


The boys stayed back in Minnesota with my mom and Bill. They also had the time of their lives like usual. The quote of the weekend was "what happens at Grandma's stays at Grandma's" except when Grandma posts pictures on Facebook.
