Life is good

It's good to be a cat on a day like this!

Election day 2012

Today is election day. (Never mind the bed head and out of focus pictures) Matthew says - "Vote for Ellie!"

Trick-or-Treat 2012

Halloween 2012 has come and gone. The weather was a bit dreary, but he still got to go around the neighborhood with friends and had a fun time at school.

Fun with Dick and Jane

Matthew finished reading his first book, "Fun with Dick and Jane;" it is a first grade reader. He was so excited to complete it today! Great job, Matthew!! Thanks, G'ma and G'pop H. for the books!

The Fall Fives

There are six birthday buddies that celebrated turning five yesterday. They start turning five in September and finish with Matthew in December. Matthew loved his racetrack birthday cake. The kids had a blast at their party!

Our firefighter

Matthew is getting more mileage out of his trick or treat costume! We enjoyed that last warm days and getting the leaves raked!

Preschool field trip - Fall 2012

Today was field trip day for Matthew's school. We had great weather and a wonderful time! The hayride was a favorite - especially when we went down a big hill fast - we thought it made a good roller coaster. The cider and doughnut at the end wasn't too bad, either.
