A Fine Feast



Today was the kid's Fall Feast at LV's School. We had to bring a Thanksgiving dish to the school where the children were able to enjoy it. It was the first year mom could actually attend and had a good time filling up on a lot of delicious food. LV's class is very multi-cultural and one of the Indian families brought the most amazing rice. There were hardly any leftovers to be had!!! Nicole's class justdid a small feast for the little ones that was more low key. But Nicole enjoyed eating in Lou's classroom. The only issue was that she left a blue cupcake in the chair and mom didn't see it and managed to sit in cupcake. Needless to say since it was bright blue, we put a towel down in the car!!

The Big Fish



The Aquarium offers some deals during the week so we took advantage of the Mommy & Me deal and went downtown to check out the Aquarium. Nicole was only 5 months the first time we went and she really got a lot out of it enough to convince us that this might be a good repeat trip for us. We joined up with the Duke family and went through all the exhibits. A lot of it was under repair so that was not fun but the Nicole enjoyed pointing out and seeing all the "fishies" in the tank.

Halloween




Wow, time has gotten away from us. Mom really needs to get on this blog. Well, we had Halloween last weekend. It was a cool, rainy night here. Mom looked up when the sun went down and we headed up our big hill right at 6:45 PM. LV went as Optimus Prime and Nicole was Supergirl. She was reluctant to don on her costume until she realized that she was rewarded with candy!!! On our way up the hill, ran into our neighbors and we all trick or treated around the neighborhood. Then as tradition followed we went to our friend Andy & Angie's to check out his haunted house decorations. Very spooky.
