Here's Julia the bat - now 9 - front and center at Lois' (15) Halloween party. There's nothing Julia likes better than hanging out w/her sisters' friends, being spoiled!

kate and anna were a bumblebee and a ladybug, respectively. it was only 40 degrees on halloween night here in michigan. thankfully their heavy sweatshirts fit under their costumes, and knit hats worked under their antennae!

We did not really do Halloween with the boys - with only being home a little over a month, I was not sure that they would understand yet. Thought they might get scared. Will definitely do it next year. But here is a picture of my cute little Cubs fans.

They are 32 month - they will be 3 at the end of February. The one on the left is Sergei Luke and the one on the right is Artyom Jacob. Their first names are the ones that they already had.

Here we are. We live in the country so they ride their vehicles down our street to see neighbors and then we hop in the car and go TorTing in other neighborhoods. And here's one of Buttercup that weekend on a pony ride.
