Our Halloween this year was spent at our second annual Prostaff Court party. Our cul-de-sac all gets together and has a themed party every year. This year it was pirates (lucky us!). The adults dressed up like pirates and we had a pot luck dinner, bonfire, games for the kids and all handed out candy to the neighborhood together. Our neighbors are a really fun group and we are glad we made the move last summer to such a great street. It's been fun getting to know them and their kids. Unfortunately, our family has been ravaged by the dreaded swine flu (aka the H1N1) for about 2.5 weeks, so we didn't make it a late night. This year Ty did actually trick or treat with Mike. They were out ringing doors for about an hour while I stayed back with the neighbors and handed out candy. Although I'm not sure he remembered in the morning about all the sugar he got (thank God) he had a good time showing off his Wow Wow Wubsy costume. Despite the flu, it was a good Halloween!
Carving pumpkins at the last minute. We've all been sick and haven't felt up to it, so we finally got around to carving one of them the day of. Better late than never I suppose! Ty was really getting "into" it

Pillsbury/Hopkins Wedding
Last weekend, I was lucky enough to be part of a special wedding. On October 24th my oldest friend Jenny Pillsbury (she was 7 and I was 8) married her prince charming in WI. I am now officially the wedding singer :), as I sang at my 2nd wedding. Despite my nerves and the cold I was fighting, it went well. Congrats to the new Jenny & John Hopkins! The wedding was beautiful and we all had a great time!
Pictures in the church were hard because I had to sit near the piano and had the glare from the window the entire time. Here's Jen with her Dad walking down the aisle to John
Fall Fun
Lots of random pictures of our September/October that weren't single-post worthy, but still worth sharing. Ty is getting so big and talking up a storm. He truly went from 0 to 60 as far as conversing with us. He had a few words, then all of a sudden he was talking in sentences. It's been incredible watching him learn! He's really enjoying daycare, or "school" as we like to call it, and his "friends". It's hilarious when he comes home talking about his "cool friends" (his words) and can name them all. We're still working on potty training. He sits everyday at daycare but never actually uses the potty and it's stalled at home. We are hoping to put it into full gear around the holidays when I am home for 2 weeks. Fingers crossed these expensive diapers are in memories past when we hit 2010!
Always wanting to be like his Daddy! ..and a man with a vacuum...so hot! :)
