First Dusting of Snow

We got a little snow this weekend. Not enough to stick to the grass or streets, but that never stops our kids from wanting to make the best of it. It is still snowing now, but it's too warm to stick. Looks like it was enough to form a couple of snowballs at least! N got to play in it for the first time (it snowed 6" last Christmas in Dallas when he was 9 mos, but he doesn't remember.) The mountains get a lot of snow here, but it rarely makes it to the ground in the Seattle area, so it's a special treat!

Happy Halloween!

We had a happy halloween as the Wizard of Oz characters. We've had a wonderful fall - the fall colors are amazing here, and the weather has been beautiful. We're enjoying every minute while it lasts!

Here are our costumes and a few decorations on our house... also N stealing candy where we thought the candy bowl would be safe, and then turn around to find him with tons of paper towels to blow his nose with. He's everywhere!

Pumpkin Painting in our neighborhood and Little S Halloween party at her school

We visited a pumpkin patch where you pick your own pumpkins just outside our neighborhood. They had train rides and a corn maze that we almost got lost in!

We also went to Microsoft for their Halloween carnival, and we got to see Daddy's office and go through a haunted house set up by the other employees.

Our walk home from school everyday in the fall, gorgeous!
