Fun with Grandma

We had a super time while Robert's Mom was in town -we did a ton of fun stuff and the weather accommodated us perfectly - here are a few pictures of her trip. Thanks for coming Grandma! Come again soon!!
We went to the Children's Museum and had a fabulous time! Here are a few of the things we did - look at that big bubble

One of the first things we did was to paint our faces - the kid REALLY liked that!




We also made some headbands - nice, huh?

And last but not least - that day they had "Black Light Art" - you went in this room with black lights on and did a bunch of fun art projects that showed up super well in the black light. The picture is a bit funny - but it really was fun!
We also spent some time at the park - this is the "Spider web Park" as Peter calls it. Grandma climbed around with the kids for a while - I think we wore her out!

Trick or Treat!

I am pretty positive that we have never had better weather on Halloween! I remember the one year it snowed 20 inches on Halloween...this year it was almost 70! The kids had a super time...

Awesome Halloween Pumpkins

Robert's Mom was in town over Halloween and we had a fabulous visit with her! I need to get caught up on a couple of posts, but here is one with about the first thing we did after she arrived. Grandma and the kids:
These pumpkins were really huge and took some cleaning out. However, the pumpkin seeds that Grandma roasted after were spectacular!

Here we have Peter and Grandma carving...let's just say that this year's pumpkins did NOT disappoint. Unfortunately I can't take much credit - Robert did most of the work and his Mom did a lot of the helping/carving.

Peter was not so sure he liked the insides
Annie and Dad working on one
And the final products! The cat and the skull turned out really pretty nice - large pumpkins make carving even more fun!
