Happy Halloween!

Last week was a very busy week!
We began the week with Jim's roof raising ceremony where the children were instructed to decorate the tree that would be placed at the top of the workshop for the ceremony:

Jim explained the ceremony and then champagne is shared by all!

Then began the school week with a group pumpkin patch trip -- MG's former Allen School playmates.  We still get together every now and then.  we're trying to make this a tradition - each Halloween make a shirt and meet at the pumpkin patch for a group photo:

And it ended with 3 different parades!  I can't wait until they are all at the same school and in the same parade!
On Thursday the boys had theirs.  E's class went first... I practically missed it because the teachers started earlier than they had told us... shame on them!  So I ran and found them...

 When he saw me, he said, "Mommy, you came.  You found me!"  So cute!!!!

When E was done, I waited for MD's class...?!

I asked for a pose before taking him to class... this is his pose.  I guess Mario likes to jump a lot!

The next day, Friday, MG had her school wide parade.  Can you see her?

 This is her 5th grade buddy and parade partner.

 M&M together.  She's Silvermist from the Tinkerbell movie.  Her headband kept moving... looks like a fountain coming out of her head here!  Yikes!

Her class:

Her friend, Hannah.  MG's been to her house once for a play date.  Nice girl - very shy and quiet.  Yes, i am talking about Hannah!  Can you imagine MG being shy and quiet?!  Ha!  ;)

Her other friends, Tia, Lyra, and Bella:

 The boys joined the fun too -- another excuse to put on their costumes again!

Wait until we go trick or treating tomorrow... oh my, the stories!  :)
