November 2008

November was a family-filled month. We celebrated Baby Athen's first birthday (he is a Halloween baby but the party was November 1st), Uncle Ivan and Aunt Jasmine's wedding, and Thanksgiving. Little Squirrel is really enjoying all of her cousin's much more now that they are a little older and more interactive. It was a fun month and it was nice to be able to spend so much time with family.

Halloween Happenings

The last week has been filled with Halloween activities. Little Squirrel made a haunted house, decorated her pirate pumpkin, had a Halloween "Carnivore" at school (every time she called it that I pictured a smallish T-Rex chasing children in costumes), went on the annual pumpkin patch outing with Tea and Crackers, and (finally) trick-or-treated with Papa. It was an exhausting week for the adults but everyone had a lot of fun.
