And now back to our regularly scheduled life...

...only with more HOPE, of course. Wink, wink. Okay, I'm done, promise!

Last weekend Catherine, our most awesomest photog buddy took some great family pics for us. You may also see these in your holiday card this year...
Thank you, Cat! You rock, as always.







And one more, just to prove that this little lady looks like her daddy, not me!


From the park that same day:
Peekaboo...


And Charlie's new favorite fashion item, the Iron Man belt...



I know Halloween is done and gone, but I wanted to share a few photos from the actual day, and from our ridiculously fun party at Jessica's...
We actually did make Mal a little costume, to go along with the Mario theme. She's Toad. Anyone get it?


Us hanging out in the mini waiting for Mario to "unpause"...


See?




Mario scoping out the best cars to hit at the preschool's Trunk or Treat...


Down the pipe!


Hitting the streets with our buddy, Mason...



The next night was the grown up party. It was amazing. Decorations, stocked bar, yummy chili, friends, music...and a microphone that ended up being way too much fun!
My wonderful parents took the kids home early, so Adam and I got to party like, well...like we used to!














Yes, Adam worked very hard on his costume. Halloween is a big deal for him, and he does it all from scratch every year. Chomp, chomp!

Your family is absolutely adorable! I LOVE the costumes that you made.

I used to play Mario as a kid and have recently found Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii we bought this summer. Ah, to be a kid again, at least for a little while.

Yeeeeahhhh!!! Pictures of Toad!!! She's so sweet - - and yeah I think she might look like her daddy!!!! That's how it goes, you carry her for 9 months and do the hard stuff and she looks like her father... Hey I have two that look like their daddy - - here's hoping the next one (ha) resembles me... somewhat!
