October and Halloween

The fall leaves were at their peak when we went up north and so we had to go for our favorite walk in the woods.





Claire in her elephant Halloween costume.

Clarie and her cousin Elliot.

Aunt Jean and Uncle Fred had a wonderful Halloween party again this year and this is Charlie after he found his pumpkin in a scavenger hunt.

Suckers were a hit with Claire.

Popeye and Olive Oyl.

I was a gypsy....

This is Claire at her Mommy and Me class party. She had a hard time smiling when she wore her costume.....

There it is:)

This year Uncle Brian and Aunt Sue treated us to the Detroit Zoo Boo. It was a lot of fun!

Outside our house before trick or treating.

Our pumpkins.


Charlie "being superman."

September Fun

Charlie, Claire and I went to Romeo to take part in the Peach Festival. Granny K took this picture of us on the tiny train.


I felt like a giantess.

Claire enjoyed the day and especially feeding the animals.

We took the kids to the Michigan Renaissance Festival. Here's Charlie on the "rocking horse."

Charlie and Claire waiting for the parade at the Peach Festival.

Mo and Elliot waiting for the parade.

I can't remember exactly why Charlie is holding his nose, but I think a horse walked by.... 

Charlie is playing a game at Daved and Busters during Grandpa C.'s birthday celebration.

Birthday wishes.

Charlie has captioned his sister under the hamper...

Claire had to get her end of session treat, too.

I got to go up to Grand Rapids to visit Allison for her birthday and had a blast!
