Stuff we did

Gettin' the guts out

Spent Halloween Day looking at flowers at
Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens.
Some would find this very scary.

Parker's finally found a replacement
for his feather pen

Checking for a fever?

Still taller than her great-grandson...for now

Guitar Hero virgins

How cool is my grandma??

Best cookies ever!

4 generations of crazy awesome

WAIT! I need more CARDS!

Happy Halloween!!

It was a dark and spooky night....

The neighborhood block party was a fright!

Devouring crusty bones without a care...

A haunted hay ride if you dare!

A night packed with magic to give them all thrills...

But spooky enough to cause a few chills.

Switching back...

Since I've changed the blog to private, it seems as though far fewer people are viewing it. I've changed it back to public for your viewing pleasure, so kick back, relax, and check out all the posts you may have missed this month, and don't forget to comment!

It's happening...

The tree in the front yard
is the first to catch autumn's fire.

Busch Gardens

Jeremy sweet-talked a Hershey's client
into giving us 3 free day passes
to Busch Gardens, worth $183.

Seriously, why people go in the
summer when the lines are super
long and they are melting in the heat,
I'll never know. It was 74 yesterday
and there were short lines.

I can't ride this one, it makes me ill.
Only took me two previous visits
to figure that out.

Just the three of us!

Taken before riding the Griffon,
the world's tallest roller coaster.

205 feet high, 90-degree angle....straight down.
Enough to make you poop your pants.

Oh but look how much he enjoyed it!

Kinda wish we had one of these.
Look how useful they are
for containing troublesome boys!

This is a 10-year-old's bathroom

If I don't venture into Parker's
bathroom every day or so,
I will find things like this.
Notice the hand towel has been
removed in favor of a more
entertaining item.

What exactly is the dysfunction with kids
and their toothpaste?

I think he has been looking
for those pants for about 2 days.

Shoulda listened to his mom....

What happens when you don't
pull out a loose baby tooth?
It re-tightens and gets pushed
into a bad place by the adult tooth.

Parker had to have it pulled today.
In case Rachel is wondering, it was #D.

He also had sealants put on.
Apparently the dentist has really
cool toys in the Treasure Chest, though.

And yeah....it looks like he's gonna need braces....
