halloween '09

Halloween was a big deal.
Thanks to Gramma Jude, we had a cozy warm Buddy the Dinosaur (T-REX) costume to wear to a party and out trick'r treating. Sadly, we didn't break out the Turtle costume for Jack, but we did dress him up in a Pumpkin sleeper wrapped in a ladybug blankie and hat.




Matt does a great job of dressing up the driveway for trick'r treat-er's. He likes it when a house is clearly open for business.

My mom will be here with me through the week. We are grateful. Thanks Mom for staying longer, and thanks to everyone else for letting me keep her for just a little longer.

grandad.


My father was here for a week (last week) and while he didn't get to meet a new baby (...still in the oven) he cemented his bond with his grandson and helped with all the that stopped us in our tracks (patio door lock, lawnmower blade, computer chair, range hood cover!, etc.) Thanks for making the trip, Dad. You'll just have to come back to meet this new person.

it's officially fall (and my birthday)




We haven't had a frost, but the leaves are changing quickly and falling off the trees.
