Fall Festivities



We loved the month of October because we had so many people to play with! We started with a great visit from Scott, Andrea, Nathan and Luke and loved having a full house and entertainment for the kids. They were so so nice and surprised us by taking us to "The Lion King" on Broadway and Zanna's face just lit up with the first note! Thanks for coming to visit us and for spoiling the kids and Andrea- I hope you are liking your new clothes :) Then we had a great weekend with Jess, who the kids can't get enough of, and loved playing in the pumpkin patch and on the playground along the shore and just laughing our heads off at the kids and all our funny run-ins! We love you Jess! We then got the have Rachel all to ourselves for 5 full days and that was a blast. James loved cuddling with her in the mornings and we had a great time relaxing at home and venturing into the city a couple of times! We learned a lot about getting around in NYC and I was very impressed with Rach's sense of direction. We had one late night of getting a little turned around and screamed when the RAT ran across the sidewalk as we were hauling the two sleeping kids to the car on our 15 block walk from the subway! We had a delicious lunch at Bobby Flay's "Mesa Grill" and then were so sad to send Rach back home on the plane. She also went home with some great new finds and I have to say- shopping in NY really is awesome!
Snow White and Dopey loved trick-or-treating with their friends Jonah and Anikah and we enjoyed a night of pizza, ice cream and lots of candy- I can't get enough and keep eating all the good stuff out of their pumpkins! We were very lucky to have Dad with us for Halloween and thought it was our best treat of the night!

Cute and fun costumes! I love James's ears. Where did you find them? I am jealous you went to Lion King. And the beach and the park look like so much fun. We miss hanging out!

Your kiddos look so cute. Tell Zanna she looked beautiful. Come visit us soon.

I can't believe you've had so many fun visitors! I am so jealous! What adorable costumes! By the way - I really want to plan a trip to see you! We are also possibly planning a trip to Niagara Falls this Spring...just throwing the thought out there. What do you think?

I can't believe how big Zanna and James are. I just think Zanna is beautiful! It looks like you are having a great time in NY.
