November begins

October & November were very busy so here are more pics from then! Enjoy!




Here are some special moments from October that we wanted to share with you...





Who doesn't love Halloween festivities? I think it's so much fun to dress up for many reasons. Mainly, when else can you look like... well anything really? By the way, we still have two and a half mixing bowls full of Halloween candy from various parties, parades & trick-or-treating just in our neighborhood. (Right before the holidays too!) Anybody interested in sharing this so our kids' heads aren't the only ones turning around in sugar shock??? (sigh) Okay... guess I'll have to bake something creative for the YMCA front desk. Now isn't that ironic, huh? Then again, how many of you will have something after you workout? Don't you feel like you've earned it sometimes?





This is what it looks like when someone is building a windmill. They've always looked impressive far away but man! Hubby said he was in awe.




Son's preschool field trip last month was to a local Mexican restaurant where they learned about more than where food was prepared. The weather was absolutely beautiful for the walk to & from.





Here are some murals we saw by a local artist. They really caught our eye, especially the car. Son was all about the turtle & transformer!





Son has been very helpful in cleaning up these days. He also has a 'thing' for lists because for some reason, he's more inclined to get it done & quicker when he can cross it off afterwards. That is definitely something he gets from me! Now I just have to make the time to make his 'job' chart so I don't have to keep making very bad drawings that he somehow can read. No clue there!





We really enjoyed seeing our old friends at their oldest son's birthday party. They had it a movie theater & afterwards adults & children alike enjoyed seeing the new movie Madagascar 2: Escape 2 Africa. What a great idea for a kids party! I'll have to remember that one.
