A few of my favorite things...

Braet and CC have begun practicing for their Christmas piano recital. I know Christmas music before Thanksgiving!! But I must confess that I love it :)

Also after starting the Lord of the Rings trilogy in the summer of 2011, Braet has finished the trilogy. Way to go!

Look who's getting Big!!

     Owey is now 6th months, 2 teeth and a whole lot of personality! He can sit up all by himself and he desperately wants to get going but hasn't mastered the crawl yet! Cianne makes him laugh, Kelz makes him cry :) ( its true- her love is a bit smothering!) and Braet cares for him so well. All in all they are a great entourage!

MMRF

Our annual walk together. It was a beautiful fall day at the harbor. I wish I had taken more pics this year but it was so nice to be together remember and celebrating Rita. Missing her!

the Crew!!

You gotta love uncles! Especially when you have 5 of them!!!!

Happy Candy

     So I dare say my kiddos love Halloween. It encompasses 2 of their favorite things: playing dress up and candy!! For days after Halloween once it had gotten dark Mikelle wanted to go trick or treat, she was hoping for more yummies from our neighbors! The girls were fairies, Owey was a lion ( that both Braet and Micah wore- very sweet for me) and Braet was Legolas. He is such a Lord of the Rings fan. So it was the perfect choice for him. He has nearly finished the the Return of the King, the last book in the series which he started last year- way to go lil man!
     We are still getting rid of candy here. I'd like to make it disappear!! But don't tell my kiddos!

At the Rio for some pre trick or treating Fun!
