Happy Halloween

My big Shrek and Little Red Riding Hood! We went trick or treating in our Close and down two streets. It took us 2 whole hours. But boy was it fun! The kids were so good. The weather was beautiful. Our neighbourhood was really nice. And of course our two little ones were sooo cute! Halloween has never been a favorite holiday of mine. However, with nights like tonight, Halloween may make some leaps to come close to the top. (Nothing will ever top Christmas though!!!)




Little Red, that we couldn't get to smile.



Enjoying some of the goods!!


Elwood and Betty. Our wonderful neighbours that welcomed us into the neighbourhood right away. They have been so good to us.




We went to our friends, Robin and Sarah Curtis', who are dear to our hearts, after trick or treating. We had a good visit with them while Aidan visited with their cat Purrsy (or Percy, I am not sure). Even their cat was in the Halloween spirit!




Happy Birthday!!

Happy birthday to my sweetheart!! He loves gummy candies. So, because of this we made dirt cake for him. Love you hun!

Wagon Ride


Marble Works

Tristan loved playing with the marble works that Corinne had brought up stairs. He was entertained for hours with this. Corinne, Dan, James and Cath all played with this when they were kids.

Silence...when there isn't supposed to be silence!

You know when there is silence in a room with children in it, and you are afraid of entering because you know that there is something either broken or permanently marked? Well, I guess it wasn't completely silent because I could hear Aidan giggling and splashing as I was putting her clothes away only 6 regular steps away. But Tristan was quiet. I knew there had to be trouble!! He got into the lotion on the back of the toilet. He sure had fun making faces in the mirror. I am sure glad he made the faces and sang his half hearted rendition of Head and Shoulders Knees and Toes mixed with Sponge Bob Square Pants It made the clean up a little more worth it!
