: face painting with dirt from the park :

yes, I know it is not their fault that I have to parent for an extra hour today… but it’s an extra hour on a Sunday that is already crawling along..

instead of complaining (well, that’s just me) we built circuits.
S. already has plans to visit the shop tomorrow to stock up on supplies.

: wings :

: hat :

: this has been taped to our wall for the past month :

: that pink popcorn block was this year’s favorite treat :

: This year Darth Vader was all about dueling any every Star Wars character we passed… except Storm Troupers, who were told which streets they were allowed to walk :

S decided to be Darth Vader again so I had a little extra time to spend on M’s Jewel costume,

and this blue Macaw does not softly tweet- she loudly caws.

I hope you had a sweet Halloween too !
: yes, but it does NOT taste great :

: it really should read; looks gross and tastes gross- I’m pretty sure boys (and Dads) will still buy it :

: and eat it :

battle!


: looks like an angry bird found the tank :


follow your heart.

well not exactly. but it was a trip that required bike locks,

and a basket that held 12 cents more when we returned from lunch,

M was truly amazed at the generosity of this mysterious stranger….
S wished he had had a basket on his bike…

: M’s favorite :
: corn maze :


: M threw a huge tantrum right after the below picture because I refused to buy the huge pumpkin she had picked out and carry it to the car :
that’s the fever S has had this afternoon,

it’s the same fever that kept M home this past Wednesday,

and it’s the same fever that is giving mom time between Battleship games to play with her camera.

: after an hour of making towers to explode, S and M hatched a plan to “cash up” their piggy banks :

: the tins were destroyed emptied and off we went :

: without hesitation S picked out the largest tank his money could buy (negotiations at bank Mom didn’t go well) :

: and M, the ugliest doll :

: and it looks like we’re all set for Saturday afternoon :



is quickly becoming M’s favorite gift to share with her friends,

and so this one is for V (we hope she likes it as much as we do),

water bottle pocket included.

: made for the pandas in room 9 :
