Long overdue


Fall season. Why is fall such a busy time of year? Isn't this the time of year that we can slow down and relax a little? Not here. We have been going non-stop. Pumpkin patches, fall festivals, Costume contests, and the best TRICK or Treating.


Our Puppy in box that came in 1st place at the local Boo at the ZOO. Hunter (Darth Vador)was upset that he did not win his age group so he told me today that he wants to go back next year so that HE can be the puppy in the box and win. They were both in the local newspaper though.

We entered another contest on Halloween day; Tina came in second place right behind a "washing machine". She informed me "Mom, they had a better plan than us." ha!

Two of my favorite boys hanging out at the St.Marys Pumpkin Patch.

Hunters Kindergarten class at St.Mary's. They had a halloween parade and all marched around the school getting high fives from the other classes. You can see our Darth Vador right up front.

The "loot" from trick or treating. We have the best neighborhood ever. We walked around with some neighbors and the kids had a blast.

It is hard to believe we are already into November and its getting time to start buying presents and getting the good ole "elf on the shelf" out to keep the kids out of mischief. Tina and Hunter are both doing really well in school. I'll try to post some videos of them reading soon. We did make a few changes at the house with them. Both kids are now sharing a room. Hunters old room is now the "playroom". They love being together at night and they still go to bed right at 8pm. Who knows how long it will last them being in the same room, but for now it seems like a really good fit, so we are going to stick with it.

Other big news in the family that I am not sure if I posted yet.. but Aunt Sabrina will be getting married in October 2010. Tina tells me how excited she is to go see a wedding! She really does have a special bond with her Aunt Sabrina.

Aunt Morgan will be having TWINS in April! I asked the kids if they were going to help babysit and Hunter said "No way, I dont like poop."
