Ryan loves the Transformers. Bob save most of his toys from when he was a kid (back in the '80's). He gave them to Ryan when he was about three. He's loved them ever since. With the new movie out, it's easier to find Transformer stuff. He was very excited to be Optimus for Halloween this year.

Photos will come, hopefully

I seem to be experiencing technical difficulties while trying to attach new photos. I'll keep working at it, but please click on "my photos" to view pics from this past weekend.

Pumpkin Party

A couple of the moms (Katie, Betty, Tammarie, Denise) got together and decided to have a pumpkin party for the kids. Tammarie was kind enough to offer her house for the party. We had a great time. We had a potluck, crafts and games for the kids, a hilarious magician, then a bonfire with smores. It was a beautiful evening, complete with full moon. While we were eating our smores, we started planning our Spring event! :)

Fall has definitely arrived! It's a cold, blustery day out there today. Ryan was supposed to have a field trip to the pumpkin patch today, but they canceled it due to the forecasted windstorm. He was a little disappointed, but I'm glad. It's cold! :)

We've kept busy since my last post. The kids most favorite thing to do when Bob gets home is wrestle (spelled it right this time!). As soon as he changes his clothes, he knows that he's going to be attacked...not by one child, but by both. Some may think that Emma's a sweet, gentle, quite little thing. She is, after all, a girl. But, she's been known to make little boys cry by growling at them. She's an expert light saber fighter and can defend herself with her brother. Ahh....can't wait until she's 16.

Ryan decided that he was going to do half of my housework for me so they could fingerpaint. So, he and Emma vacuumed one room and...well...that's all they did. Where did my help go? That's not half of my housework!

Bob was kind enough to watch the kids overnight on Friday. I headed up north with one of the friends to scrapbook. On Friday, from 6 to 11, I got 20 pages done. I was so excited! On Saturday, I think the homemade cinnamon rolls and staying up until 1:30 kicked in - I only completed 10 more pages. Oh well...it was great to get away, spend some time with friends and leave that housework at home! (No, Ryan didn't do any housework while I was gone!)

I guess that's all for now. Gotta wake up Emma and head out in the yucky weather to get Ryan from the bus. I hope that you're all enjoying your day and making it a good one!
