Happy Halloween! Gus went as Iron Man but since he lost his mask two days before Halloween Trista decided to improvise and paint a beard on him to make hime look like Tony Stark (the man behind the mask in the movie). Sam went as a Yoda a very good fit and the costume was hand made by Trista. Joy went in the monkey suit that Trista made when Gus was a baby, so now they have all been monkeys. We had gorgeous trick or treating weather and the kids made a haul.


It's a little blury...sorry. We went to a wedding and then the reception. Gus was very excited for the dance to start and he danced the night away. Towards the end of the night Gus found these two lovely ladies and proceeded to dance with them for probably an hour. He was a popular little guy out there!


Gus's pre-school went to the pumpking patch and Dad helped drive some of the kids out. It was really cold and damp and muddy but everyone still had fun. Kids and pumpkins go together like bread and butter.

We've enjoyed a great fall here. The boys seem to be getting soo much older. They play hard with each other all day and fight. But they are truly bonded to one another and although it is exhausting it is a blessing to watch them develop with one another. Joy is a wonderfull little girl, and lucky her, the boys treat her like a princess. I suppose that will stop when she's old enough to start being demanding!
