Tricks and Treats

I can't believe it will be November tomorrow. Time is flying by, Patrick will be 18 months old November 12th! We have had a great October, carving and painting pumpkins; making scarecrows; and raking leaves.  Mary spent Halloween Day sick with a fever and poor attitude. Thankfully the fever broke during nap time and she was able to trick or treat for a bit around the neighborhood. Here are a few highlights from the past few days.

Carving our first family pumpkin. The kids helped scoop out the seeds.

Hut, hut, HIKE!

Patrick's checking out his scarecrow one last time.

Is this Mike or Patrick?

Bathed and ready for bed by 7:15 on Halloween Night.

Happy Halloween!

The Diaper Game

The kids have found a new game to play. 

First they lay on the ground.

Then I throw all the diapers on them. Fun!!

Giggle Fest

Practice for Halloween

We have been having fun dressing up. This year Mary is going to be a kitty cat and Patrick is going to be a lion.

Minnesota-Here's to GG

This summer we travelled to Minnesota to pay our respects to Mike's Grandpa. What a wonderful man. We were able to spend alot of time all together catching up and honoring Grandpa's memory.

First Day of Preschool

Mary loves school. The video says it all.

Fun at the Park and Meeting the Teacher

I took the kids to Sharon Woods last weekend to play in the "creek" and sprinklers. We had a great time.

What a profile! I am going to have to frame this one.

Surprise!

Mary met her preschool teachers. She insisted in wearing her first day of school outfit since she was technically going to school for the first time.
