It's H~A~L~L~O~W~E~E~N!

We had a fun Halloween season this year. Hanna and Matthew's costumes started off as "Dark Bride" and Harry Potter . . .

Matthew was still Harry Potter for his Kindergarten class party.....

Here he is with some friends in his class....

He was SO HAPPY because he was the student with the Principal who lead the 500+ kids of Anderson Elementary in the Halloween parade. Look at that smile!

Here he is with his kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Hill. He just loves her!

By the time Trick or Treating actually began, both of the kids were in different costumes. Here they are now as a cowgirl and Ben 10.

Happy Halloween!

Matthew Turns Five!!!

We celebrated the BIG day with a fun afterschool party at McDonald's with a Ben 10 theme. Notice the cleverly crafted Ben 10 ice cream cone cupcakes! :o)
Lots of friends came to help celebrate......over 2o friends in all! That's a LOT of Happy Meals!

Happy Birthday, Matthew!

Wow ~ How time flies!

I am trying to figure out where the last two months have gone! It seems like summer just ended, we just got home from vacation and the kids just started school! In reality, tomorrow is the first day of November! WoW! Here's some highlights of the last two months:

Matthew started Kindergarten in September.

It was a sad drop off for both of us! Matthew was slightly more vocal about his sadness...

He seemed to think he was being lead away from me for the rest of his life . . .

But, by the end of the day, he loved it!! He came out singing and do the hand motions for "The Wheels on the Bus".

Thank You God! I could not have endured those tears everyday!
