Family Trip to Portland

Bon, Shelley, Kelly, and I took a short trip down to Portland.  We had a great lunch at St. Honore's, a walk down 23rd checking out the shops, stayed at the Mark Spencer, had dinner at Habibi's, and breakfast at Mother's Bistro.  It was a fast but great weekend- good company and lots of laughs and memories.

Tyler's School Pictures

Here are Tyler's school pictures for this year....not bad for a kid who's impossible to make smile unless you make him laugh.

Carving Pumpkins

It's that time again....the carving of the pumpkins.  Tyler and Ella get pretty excited for this- waiting until after dinner was painful...for all of us. :)  Here's a few shots of the mayhem.

Tyler's Classroom

Check out Tyler's teacher's blog for his classroom.  He is the third picture down, and the vampire bat in the video.

The (rainy) Pumpkin Patch

Okay, I think we picked the worst possible day to head to the pumpkin patch.  As soon as we opened the car doors at Bellinger Farms, it started raining.  But the nice thing about kids...they didn't even care.  I think we were more concerned about the rain than they were.  Here's a few pics from our adventure.

As soon as we changd the calendar to October, the kids made us get out the Halloween decorations. So now, between the decorations, the pumpkins, and the costumes in the mail, we are ready for Hallowen.
