Halloween and such

I am so far behind on my pictures, but I have to publish Halloween photos before Christmas is here!
A fun day at the zoo.


Andrew still isn't into dressing up - so we went with what we had. We did love to hear him say, "I'm Bob duh Bidda."





Like so many boys his age, J wanted to be Spiderman this year, but unfortunately, we couldn't ever find one to fit. I was very happy about this Dash the Incredible costume!

I did a Halloween 5K and Dash won the prize for best costume!

The fun run was a "Trick or Trot" and the boys got lots of candy. By the time I had finished the 5K - little pumpkin was on his 3rd sucker, and I ran fast that day!

I love the way you eat a cupcake







Joshua turns 4!!

The day begins with his choice of breakfast (Poptart) on our special day plate. At least for dinner he chose "that orange fish (salmon), broccoli, green beans, and potatoes".
Then he was off to preshool for party #1. I had to purchase the cupcakes for this one, but the blue icing made for some very cute/messy kids. By the way, he wore the hat ALL DAY! After school we headed off to Chuck E. Cheese with Papa and Granny J which we have done for the previous 2 years.
Saturday was party #2 with some family friends. I made these pumpkin shirts for all the kids since we were going to the pumpkin farm.
His cake request this year was a football cake. I had seen this done at the grocery store and thought my model turned out well! Too bad is was so windy we couldn't get the candles lit!


Our kids are getting too big too fast! Joshua is still a very smart and well behaved child. He seems to be more gifted in words than numbers at this point and it will be interesting to watch him develop in the coming year. We love you, JT!
