Table for seven

We had some friends over to the new house last week and amazingly at one point all seven boys sat at the table for dinner.

Thing 1 and Thing 2

Several weeks ago LT decided what we'd all be for Halloween this year and he hasn't swayed a bit from his idea. He and Adler are Thing 1 and Thing 2 while I'm the Cat in the Hat. Kari gets to be the big red box that Thing 1 and Thing 2 come in. We're still working on the box part but, thanks to some help from Grandma, we've got the other costumes figured out nicely.

Ironically I was out of town for work during my work's Halloween party on Thursday but Kari and the boys went anyway. Without me there, I guess LT was okay with her being the Cat rather than the box.

Yesterday we all drove back to the old neighborhood to go trick-or-treating on Tennyson Street.

Gov Park

We recently moved back to Capital Hill.  Governors Park is a park full of memories for Brian and I, mostly of walking Hailie when she was a puppy and letting her play here.  Yesterday was a beautiful fall afternoon and we met some friends here to play before going to another old favorite, Benny's.
