Halloween

Believe it or not Halloween is as busy for us as Christmas or Thanksgiving. Both girls had costume parties on Tuesday at Ballet class on top of that we had a party at scouts Tuesday nights.Thursday brought the Bloomfield Boys and Girls Club annual Halloween carnival. Then of course there is still Friday, the big kids both had Halloween parties at school even if they couldn't dress up, and in the evening went to Emanuel Baptist's carnival.

You will have to excuse the quality of the pictures my camera was acting up, so we had use the camera in my phone.

Naya for Halloween was suppose to be a bag of jelly beans, but when the time came she refused to wear it. They were two clear trash bags with lots of colored balloons in it (so cute.) Naya has also decided this week she has a baby in her tummy.

Here she dressed in a colorful outfit, hair and make-up done.
"Alright water play"
Too much Halloween!
Fionna was an angel she was so pretty. We also got Fi's first report card as you can see it is very good, and if you can't she has mastered a large portion of the skills she needed to pass Kindergarten (it's only the first quarter).
This is a picture of her beautiful face painting from the BB&GC. She patiently waited nearly 30 minutes to get it done.

This is her face painting from Emanuel BaptistJust a great shot of her costume.
Dreigan is a "green" knight or a knight in recycled armor. In fact he made his costume himself for cub scouts , he had a homemade costume contest. Dreigan did a great job but didn't win. Dreigan also got his report card, not as good as we had hoped. Take a look and see what you think.

Baby- We would like announced we have decided to name the baby Honora Bryn, final spelling has not been decided. She is growing well, we are sure. In fact Christi wore a brides maid dress Thursday, she wore at six months pregnant with Fionna, which Honora is only five months and stretched the dress more than when Christi wore it in the wedding. She moves all the time. Presses into Christi's stomach when ever the kids come near by, its seems she can't wait to play with big kids, but she better.

Christi also had a week of fun in her class. They had crazy week. Monday was crazy hat day, to which we discovered we don't own one. Tuesday was crazy sock day, so what does a person who wears mismatched novelty socks do on crazy sock day? Wear matching white socks of course. Wednesday was pajama day, too bad its not everyday. Thursday they had a fairytale tea so Christi obliged and dressed as the very necessary Fairy God Mother wings and all. Her class had Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Tinker bell, Elmo, and Superman came to the tea (the only way the kids and adults can wear costumes in Head Start). All in all it was very successful. Friday was crazy hair day Christi had five pony tales.

Nick says the outage drill on Friday was long. He also gets to cross-train his coworker and vise-versa. He has six months until his supervisor retires and he becomes the warehouse manger.

Donna saw the orthopedic doctor this week and he says the other doctors are wrong. She did fracture it. She is now at home for an extended time with no weight on it so that the fracture can heal. We have borrowed a walker, shower chair, ect. from Cathy and Steve.

What a great report card Fionna. And Dreigan's costume was so creative. Great job!

Honora is a pretty name. How do you pronounce the middle name? Is it like Brenn?

Hi to all. I love the large print you are using, Christi. And the pictures and news of everyone, including Donna. Give her my greetings. I thought about you all at Halloween, but, sorry, didn't get a card in the mail in time. I'm glad you all had fun.
We are looking forward to seeing you soon. Love to you all.

Nick and Christi
