On Saturday, we had our annual neighborhood Halloween Festival (which Mom co-planned). It started out with a neighborhood costume parade in which Jack and Lily held the banner, and culminated with fun on the moonbounce, ghost bowling, and three-legged and egg/spoon races. As you will see Lily is a vet and Jack chose to be Spiderman over Batman (will see what he chooses for Halloween). They were thoroughly exhausted and we had an early dinner with friends Andy and Jen, and an early bedtime.
On Sunday, we carved pumpkins and celebrated Dad's birthday with Grandma Gail, Grandpa Tom, and Grandpa Maurice - Lily and Jack send out special get well wishes to Grandma Phyllis.
Jack as Spidey: "I'm going to get you!" (he really has no idea who Spiderman is but he makes a cute/funny one.)
Lily wrote a book of nonfiction this week about animals, it was extremely creative and the facts were correct. Today she came home from school and carved a pumpkin for fairies, I believe it is sitting out front with leaves and sticks waiting for the fairies. She was very excited to get a new nonfiction library book which tells all about pumpkins - she gets to check out a new book every Monday. She is also very excited because she is the line leader at school this week and on Friday they have a parade in which they will dress up using vocabulary words (education for Halloween, no dress up).
Happy Halloween!
