Team Anders

Considering the World Series may come to a conclusion soon I figured I should get these photos up while baseball's still being played.  Though he's not throwin' from the mound with his left (yet) he is definitely a natural left-hand batter.  Daddy and Grapes are stoked.

We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!

Today's weather was a 100% upgrade from yesterday's so we scrapped PT Day #2 , broke out the Monkey #5's and enjoyed the sunshine.  The trip to the park was short-lived because we were a tad underdressed for the cooler than expected breeze.  It was still fun though...so much better than being inside ALL DAY LONG!!! After wrapping up at the park we ran some errands and had a fabulous lunch with Sam, Sara, Kathleen and Anna -- and embarrassingly I left my camera in the car and just realized it now.  We played in the backyard and the kiddos burned off a lot of steam in the bouncy castle.  We came home and E hit the pillow hard.  When he woke up it was time to carve our pumpkins!  Check out this artistic display... Yep. All freehand. I know you're wondering where to get the templates. Sorry. Not for sale. Do note that Jace is actually touching the pumpkin innards! Ta-da!  Happy Hall...

Grandma and Grapes Tomlinson recently discovered a great state park about 40 minutes from Dayton called Buck Creek State Park.  Grams, in particular, wouldn't stop raving about the lake and the significant rock-throwing opportunities so we headed over last weekend (I think it was last weekend -- I can't hardly remember my own name these days).  Fun times.
