9 years

That is how long he's been putting up with me! Happy Anniversary Euan! We are staying in Sonoma on Saturday night to celebrate. Auntie Kim and Ben have kindly agreed to stay with the boys. I can't wait to soak up the silence!

Our Halloween decor

Here is our Halloween decor not as elaborate or scary as some of the neighbors. I like it because it is simple. But I think this is the last year I'm going to get away with simple. The boys are wanting some oohey gooey scariness.

Pumpkins are designed and mostly scooped by Aidan and Conner and carved by me.

Conner's is the one on the far left and the second from the right. Aidan's are the other two. Tomorrow is the big day. Let's keep our finger crossed that is doesn't rain as forecasted!

Halloween Tour

On Wednesday we took a tour of the halloween decoration in the neighborhood under the safety of daylight. A few houses were deemed to scary for trick-or-treating at night.

Friendship

This week in school is "friendship" week. This is all part of a larger program to bully-proof the school. The boys had a assembly with the "whole school" (very exciting to them) on what to do if you are bullied and what to do if you feel like you are bullying. The best part was buying the friendship bracelets!

Let's try this blogging thing

I've been thinking about this for long time and finally decided to stop thinking just do it. This will be a simple, straightforward blog. It will mainly be to keep family and friends updated on our life with the boys. Let the grandparents see a little day to day life. We'll see how it goes.
