You Are My Sunshine


Visitors

Grandma and Grandpa were here with us last week waiting for their power to come back in NY after the hurricane.  We made a great week of their unexpected visit, and we were so glad to have them with us to enjoy our electricity!!

Halloween

Our trick-or-treaters had a fabulous Halloween- besides Jacob being a little traumatized be a couple of scary costumes!  Our Tinkerbell and Nemo were so excited about trick-or-treating and are still talking about how fun it was!

Hurricane Day

We have had some strange weather for sure this fall!  We have stayed home for a hurricane, snow, and now a water pipe burst in front of the college causing school to be canceled!  Well, here is what we do to have fun- playing beauty shop with your little brother!

Leaves!

The girll from next door came over and helped us rake leaves to jump in!!

Neighborhood kids leaf pile!!



Pumpkin Carving

We had fun carving our pumpkin for Halloween.  Our helpers got the pumpkin all cleaned out!


AppleFest

We had a beautiful fall day at AppleFest held at Wachusett Mountain. 

Sitting on some of the BIG pumpkins waiting to be weighed in.

 Having, of course, apple cider!!

Funny Faces


Boots!

Whose rain boots are the most fun? Mommy's!!


Our Artist

Caroline is becoming quite the artist- she is constantly drawing, coloring, and creating things for us!  Here is a little sample:

Rainbow Dash- her "favorite" pony- until tomorrow!  Colored and cut out

 Caroline may also be branching into fashion design- she created this robot costume for Jacob!!  He went along with it for about 2 minutes!

Pumpkin Painting

Fall is here and we are excited for changing leaves, fall jackets, and of course, pumpkins!


Daddy's Girl


Fall Funnies

I am not sure whether Watson has ever slept in his dog bed we got him several months ago, but it is a hit with the human kids!




First Day of School

Both Caroline and Jacob are going to school 3 mornings each week at the JCC.  Everyone was so excited for the first day of school and had a great day!  Caroline is loving her school and teachers.  Jacob has had a little more of an adjustment with his first time away but is doing a great job!


Doctors

I got this while Aiden and Caroline were playing doctor- funny cousins!

Davis Farmland

We went to Davis Farmland with Lindsey and Aiden which is a favorite of all the kids! 

Of all the things to do at Davis, the face painting is Caroline's favorite and she takes it very seriously!!



 
Headed home after a great day!
Flashback to our last visit to Davis- wow, everyone has gotten so big!

 
 
 

Happy Birthday to Jacob!


Jacob's Birthday Party

Jacob had a big truck party- go figure!  We rented a moving truck for the kids to eat and play in- such a hit!!

Aiden and Lindsey

We had a fabulous visit from more of our Texas family in August; Lindsey and Aiden came to see us and were able to be here for Jacob's birthday party!  The kids had SO much fun together!!
The 3 Muskateers!!

Aiden was not so enthused about this situation, but aren't they cute!

2 Years Old

Our Jacob is now 2 years old!!  So hard to believe!  He is getting so big and so independent lately, and it is so much fun to watch him grow up!

 
So lucky to have a big sister to help open all his new presents!

Sundae School

We heard from many people to go to Sundae School for ice cream at the Cape, and it was so worth the trip!
