First snow
This happened BEFORE Halloween - I'm just completely out of order now. Danny was the first one to get outside and play in the snow. Good thing he did it first thing that morning, by the afternoon the snow had melted!!
TV dinner
A regular spaghetti dinner... this is what I'd expect to see on everyone's plate.
BUT, whenever we have spaghetti, my boys want "spaghetti tacos".... a meal they picked up from one of their favorite T.V. shows. WEIRD!
But they eat them. And well, I'm glad when they eat something I make. It doesn't always work that way around here.

I'm back
Obviously, I've worked out a few kinks - but honestly, I wanted to quit the blog these past few days. HOW FRUSTRATING! I had to download Firefox to get Blogger to work again. Evidently, it doesn't work with the newest version of Explorer. So be FOREWARNED... don't do upgrades on Explorer! Anyhoo - I think it has been resolved for the time being. Thanks for letting me vent.
Halloween Fun
Gardner Village
I went to Gardner Village with Alisa and her family. I spoiled the kids with some cotton candy. (I'm way nicer when there are cute nieces around)
A picture of all the kids together (Hunter was still at school).
Ethan is growing up so fast!! Look at him try to eat his mommy's nose.
Alisa's family... sort of.
Annual Halloween Party
Princess Peach and Mario
The group - I'm so glad we got a group picture!
Do you recognize these guys? They looked AMAZING! When Danny saw them the next night... he FROZE with fear. Well, Grandpa was the scary one... he was quick to Grandma's arms (plus she brought candy with her!)
Challenge: pick up the paper sacks with your teeth - and no bending of the knees. Chanin did it gracefully.
Not so pretty....
FYI: this guy can't even sit Indian Style... can you "see" him screaming in agony?
Sheldon is trying to knock over water bottles with that panty-hose/baseball on his head... we know how to PARTY!
CORNBELLY'S
We took the boys to Cornbelly's on Saturday. Sad to say - we enjoyed lots of fun activities but all my pictures were from the corn bin. It was definitely a highlight - for all the boys (old and young!).
Hunter
Danny (he didn't like being buried much, but he did like to throw the corn)
Cole
Happy Halloween!
Princess Peach, Mario, Squirt, Super-Diaper Pirate Baby, and a Vampire.
Cherae took us to a neighborhood train ride. I didn't know what to expect - but there's a reason why this has little activity has more than 10,000 people visiting this season alone. It's completely run by volunteers from a neighborhood and it was AWESOME (and free!). Too bad we were enjoying it too much to take lots of pictures. Here's one from the train... I don't even know how to explain it - but it was an "Awesome Halloween" - as Hunter exclaimed at the end of the night.
Shayne's pumpkin... and yes, he designed it himself.
Halloween fell on a Sunday this year, so we had a special dinner: Mummy Dogs, Scones, Tomato Slices (we decided those were guts), Broccoli (bronchi), and everything on our cool Halloween plates. I'm glad the boys have such a fun daddy - he's the instigator of all our fun!
