Giving Thanks 2007

Both Caleb and Matthew had Thanksgiving feasts at their respective schools...but we're going to have to make you wait for a photo from Caleb's, as Mommy forgot her camera and is relying on Mrs. Lindenhoffen to pass along a most excellent shot.

Matthew's class wrote down what they were most thankful for, and you'll never guess what he said! How about "my big brother, Caleb"? Not Mommy, not Daddy, heck, not even Santa Claus!

We spent Thanksgiving day itself at MeMom and Grandpop's house, with Uncle Nick, Aunt Mia, Uncle Joe, Aunt Carole, and Uncle Mickey in attendance. We had a fabulous time, of course, and stuffed ourselves on all of the tradtional dishes. We tried to get a family portrait, but this is the best we could manage!

Halloween 2007

Another Halloween has come and gone and we have the pics to prove it. Matty was desperate to be Pikachu last year, but the costume was too hard to come by. This year, we bought it nice and early...only to have him decide on Batman later. Too bad, so sad, Matty!

Caleb had a hard time coming up with his costume this year, but we think his last-minute biker turned out great...very tough.

A personal message from Caleb...

Yeah, good times. The best part was getting laughed at (kinda embarrassing)!

Matthew's 5th Birthday Party

Matty had his party a week ahead of time, on October 21st. Being as Halloween was just a hop, skip & a jump away, we had an easy breezy theme. We had a moonbounce, tomato pie, chips (with salsa from MeMom) and Jones Halloween sodas...yum (okay, kind of yuck, but we're kids, so anything with sugar is all good!).

Unfortunately, Mommy had her digital camera on the wrong setting and all of the pics turned out too blurry. Boo, Mommy!
