We had the most fun trip to the beach. Right at the beginning of the boardwalk before heading out to the waves we found this congregation of monarch butterflies enjoying a meal of nectar from these cute little white flowers. Such a treat to watch!

Halloween Is Here

Here's Matthew singing a cute Halloween song he learned in Preschool.

Fall Happenings

Here are just some random silly pictures of us. You'll see some pictures of us outside. We've been having a ball going outside in the evening, lying down on the blanket and watching the sun set and the stars come out.















Olivia got to dress up like a Bay Haven Buccaneer with other 1st graders. Her teeth really contribute to her costume--don't you think?


Matthew's pre-k class went to the fire station on Thursday, and what a fun time Matthew had! Mommy got to go along and we had a great time. Matthew's two favorite parts were squirting the hose at a huge garbage dumpster and second, evacuating a simulated fire in a trailer built specifically to resemble a two-story house (a very small two-story house, I might add). They filled the trailer with "smoke,"--don't know what it really was, but they said it wasn't real. They got to climb down a ladder and then stop, drop and roll on a mat outside.
