Happy Halloween

What a great and stress free Halloween this has turned out to be! Thrift stores and hand me downs are the greatest places for costumes. Everyone was happy and got all the candy they could eat. The best part was that at the end of the night dad offered to buy everyone's candy and everyone agreed! What a genius idea! Now I don't have to deal with it! Everyone picked out their own costumes and wore them proudly. We had a zombie, cowgirl, a witch, and a princess. What a night. Happy spooks everyone!

Pumpkin Carving

What a fun night of carving. Everyone's creations turned out fantastic, great work guys! Thanks for your muscles dad.

Milk, it does a body good!

Grandpa Shrek will be proud to have such great milk drinkers.

Happy Birthday Dulci!

Our sweet Dulci turned 2 this month, my how time flies! I'm such a stingy mom when it comes to food, and I HATE cake and having the leftovers for a week after the birthday. So since Dulci couldn't object I decided to do an apple pie instead. Yum, everyone loved it. Right when Seth lit the candles she blew them out and it suprised her so much that she wouldn't even look at them when we tried to light them again for a picture.

My old friend

In my efforts to purge and declutter I finally convinced Seth to get rid of my old cast I wore my freshman year of high school. You'll notice he signed it huge in red right across the top. This was before he was ever interested in me and I was annoyed he had taken up so much valuable signing space. Who would have known that 15 years later we'd be living happily ever after. Can you find your name?

There's nothing like a lollipop...

Fun with cousins and friends

We had lots of fun playing with our cousins this month.

The weather has been beautiful, perfect for an afternoon on the tramp!

And finally we got to return a favor to some friends by watching their kids while they went out of town. Lots of fun for everyone!
