Halloween!

On Saturday we met up with our friends Angela, Matt and Henry (the fox) for a Halloween carnival at Saint Martin's University.

By Monday morning, the kids were ready for more trick or treating.

Simon figured it out by the end of the night.

I'd say they did pretty well.

Pockets!

A few of Simon

We rode the bus, and he doesn't like the noise the doors make. 

Throwing rocks. This kid has an arm.

Reception at the zoo

Wednesday night, I spoke at the zoo. A professional photographer was there to document the night, which means we got some great pictures of the kids.

I had both kids with me and had to keep them entertained for a bit before Mary arrived. Thankfully, there was paper and a two-toed sloth, and some cake.

Here's Hannah not happy about her photograph being taken.

The two kids drawing the sloth.

I love this picture of Hannah. Mary's caption: "Just talking about the issues. No big deal."

More of them drawing the sloth.

Mary had Hannah and I had Simon when I was called up to speak. Thinking fast, I gave him a piece of cake and sat him at the podium. Karen Vialle got lots of smiles from him. :)
