What a day! Isaac got to dress up like Thomas the Train for his Halloween party at school today. He had so much fun! He thought that it was his party, as did all of the other children. They were all walking around saying, "My party is today." "No, my party is today." It was cute! There were two Thomas' in Isaac's class. There was also an Elmo and two Spidermen. ALL of the girls were some form of a princess. They ate rice crispy treats that looked like spiders and cookies that were shaped like bats.

What two year old wouldn't like that?













He also had gymnastics today, or as he calls gimnastics. The teacher stopped Casey in the hall a few weeks ago and told him that Isaac didn't participate much. He just sits in the chair and watches until he pulls out the little trampoline and then he takes turns with that. Casey told him that he comes home and shows us stuff that he learns. Well..today, his crazy mom just went with him! I did almost everything the kids did. I did not perform the backbend like in this picture!!! He was so excited to come home and show his Daddy all
of his new tricks! Maybe next week, he will try
a few things without me there!

"Thanks Carla for the new book! I really like the hat and the whistle! Mommy just makes me wear the bandana. I think it is too hot." He said something like that anyway!!
We have a video of him blowing the whistle and saying thank you...but I couldn't get it to work today. I will try again though, it is very funny! Anyway...we have enjoyed reading the book and Isaac is very proud to know how to blow the whistle! Thanks for thinking of us Carla!

A Day At The Pumpkin Patch
Wow what a day! Isaac got up and went and had his pictures taken in his overalls down by some water. He was barefoot and it was a little chilly. Then, he changed his clothes and we met Emma, Garrett and Mrs. Marti for a trip to the pumpkin patch. The two big kids loaded up in the wagon and Garrett got to ride in the stroller. Look how (cough cough) still they sat for the pictures!


Isaac had an excellent time looking for the perfect pumpkin, or at least one he could pick up. He and Emma both ran from pumpkin to pumpkin trying to pick them up and picking some up just to throw them down when they saw another that looked good. We kept reminding them that they would bust but that didn't seem to deter them much.





Everyone seemed to enjoy the day, although, Garrett did sound the dinner bell around noon. We had just gotten on the hayride when he decided he was hungry. He made it thru the hayride and back to the car just in time to fall asleep taking a bottle!
Good memories with good friends today. I am sure that a new tradition has started and I am curious to see how the motley crew grows and changes in this same picture next year!
