Madison has always considered herself a lap dog, but in recent years she doesn’t like to jump into a lap as much (old hips). I was out for the evening and Wade sent me a picture of Alex and Madison snuggling. How sweet.

Our neighborhood seems to be growing like crazy. In the last year, the number of children has grown exponentially. With all the new residents, the home owner’s association decided to put together more holiday activities. My neighbor is in charge (Awesome!) and planned this fabulous Halloween event for the neighborhood.

Today was full of parties. Two kids had Halloween Parties at their school and then we went to a friend’s party after school. I helped out with Kaitlyn’s party so I have plenty of pictures. I have a few pictures from Teague’s Halloween Parade around the school.
Then tons from our party at a friend’s house.

Kaitlyn loves her “pubbles.” She will sometimes work the “baby” puzzles with a single piece per hole, but her favorite are these 24/48 piece puzzles. She needs quite a bit of help but I doubt she will for long.

Morning bus stop. (Kaitlyn is determined to get as much wear out of her Halloween costume as possible.)

This is the 12th year Wade and I have hosted a pumpkin carving party. (Isn’t that crazy?) We had a mix of Milwaukee friends and local friends. The weather was prefect for carving outside and then the adults moved inside to socialize and the kids played outside in the treehouse and with flashlights till 9 pm.

We love our after school play dates. There are a couple families that always stay an extra 30 minutes after school gets out. We let the kids run and play around the school and the adults get to relax in the sun.
