Piper and Andrew are dressing up as a princess and a knight for Halloween. This year we wised up and took photos of them in their costumes before Halloween. It’s always too exciting to smile for a picture when there’s candy in the near future. We even found some leaves from a few houses in the neighborhood to make it seem more like fall. 
Piper is holding a stone bird. She thought it looked princessy.
We went to the Lombardi pumpkin patch with Piper’s friend Bella and brother Gavin. The kids had fun running through the corn maze, eating snow cones and riding on the train. Later that afternoon we carved our pumpkin. Piper drew the face which is pretty scary.

Our babysitter Laura got married today and we were able to help her celebrate. It was a very kid friendly reception so our kids had a blast. There were crafts, sweet treats and special dinners just for them. We hung out with friends we haven’t seen in awhile too. 
Piper loved getting all dressed up for the occasion.

Yay – Laura!! 
Congratulations, Sean and Laura!
Piper made our family out of some mini pumpkins.
With Piper at school for a full day it leaves lots of time for mommy and Andrew to go exploring. We’ve been on lots of adventures including the park, the library, mini golf, going out to lunch and hunting for clocks. We love our little dates.
