Pictures from Halloween night! It was a fun one. The weather was cold, crisp, clear, and most importantly, dry. The kids did great. They collapsed into their beds shortly after 9pm.

Pig out!

Here is dino-boy. Isn't he a sight? Mommy tried to post some other stuff earlier, but it's not clear that it worked. It has been a REALLLLY long time since I did this, I know... 

Here are the long awaited photos of our favorite two little munchkins in their Halloween costumes, mostly ready, just in time for Henry and Ava's Halloween party this afternoon. Susie has learned how to sew under neighbor Maria's expert tutelage. Thanks, also, to Lisa from the office for the machine!!!

Adriana requested a donut costume this year. Trick or treating will be amusing. Adriana is the SUV, the other kids, well, they're toast.















Dance, little donut girl, dance!!! She is, of course, a chocolate donut with sprinkles. Is there any other kind?


9. Not sure where the number came from, other than Alex's busy little fingers. He wants to help me with the blog. Here I am, stealing some sugar from the sweetest scary dinosaur I know. He is delicious...and very excited about his dinosaur costume. He has been SOOOOO patient with Mommy as she has stumbled through this project. "Is my dinosaur costume done yet, Mom?" Finally, YES!!! And isn't he a sight! Alex says he likes his dinosaur costume because it has a hood. I like it because of who is inside of it. What about you?4 

It's been a really long time since we've posted anything...Alex is now a BIG KINDERGARTENER!!! Here he is on Grandparents Day at Alameda, waiting with his class in the hallway to go in and sing for the throngs gathered in the cafeteria. Ms. Gliedman is the pretty teacher in the baseball shirt. She came prepared with fidget toys (and skittles) for the kids to keep busy in the hall. To her right are Craig, Cori, Sebastian, Alex, and Arkain. Alex wants you all to know that Alex A. is standing next to Arkain, and Morgan is next to him, but you can't see them in this picture. Sean and Garrett are also in the class.
