Trick-or-Treat

Little man couldn't believe what he was seeing during trick-or-treat. After observing for awhile, he went into the garage and came out with a bucket ;)

The girls had a fun time seeing their teachers dressed up at the school's Trunk-or-Treat.

Working with Daddy

Emerson wanted in on the island light changing fun :)

Swaisgood Halloween Party

No shortage of Hippies at the Swaisgood party this year! We laughed and laughed when we saw Uncle Jim and Seth were dressed the same. Matt rode with us, and he was a doc. Kit went as a lama, Emerson as a COTA bus driver, and Winnie as Dorothy. I was a Team Noah Superhero.

Columbus Half Marathon

I ran my second half marathon today, and Seth brought the gang out to cheer me on at the finish. This was my way of welcoming in age 40, and my goal was to run the 13.1 miles under 2 hours. I finished at 1:52:59 (8:38 min/mile).

The girls had a blast at the Olentangy High School show choir workshop with the Keynotes and She-notes! Kit got to be paired with Emily again, and Winnie was paired with Sam. Grandpa came with Mom and Doc to the performance.

Fall Festival

We enjoyed Emerson's first visit to the pumpkin patch during the fall festival at Miller's Country Gardens. He loved the hay ride and was amazed by all the pumpkins. He kept saying, "Wow!" and "Whoa!"

Blanket Fort

These two worked well together to create an elaborate fort in the basement.

Make It Saturday: Painting

More painting on this fine Saturday! Kit and Rylan worked for a long time on their masterpiece for the closet they play in, and Winnie and Cam painted some pictures, too.

Doughnuts with Dads & Dudes

Doc took the girls to Arrowhead's "Doughnuts with Dads & Dudes" this morning. They bought an entire dozen!

Enchanted Forest Book Fair

Tonight we stopped by the school for the enchanted forest book fair. Kit got to see friend Gianna, and we all spotted Splat the Cat.

Emerson at 16 Months

Emerson turned 16 months a few days ago. He likes to roll his tractor and cars, walk on his tiptoes when excited, push the grocery cart and baby stroller, and find toys the girls leave within his reach. He says. "Are you?" for "Where are you?" and "I got it."

Seth's 41st Birthday

Seth enjoyed a happy birthday with a little extra time with Emerson (worked half a day) & evening party with the girls.
