We had a week full of fun when my sister and our cousin, Calvin, came up to visit. They were here for Halloween and watching all the boys trick or treat was quite a sight. They loved the candy and trick or treating so much that they asked to do it again the next night. They were just a little disappointed when they realized that it only comes around once a year! They are already talking about costumes for next year and Luke has decided he wants to be a "Rainbow Dragon" just like Calvin with a long tail and wings.
The boys played well together this week despite a few (or maybe a lot) of sharing battles. Seems everyone always wants the SAME toy when you are 3.5 years of age and the 1.5 year old knows how to run off with it. We had two minute turns for everyone and managed to find some peaceful moments amid the chaos. I am posting a slideshow from shutterfly that will hopefully work because we have so so many pictures that were all so good. In addition to trick or treating, we went to the gymnastics open gym, the apple orchard/pumpkin patch, played outside, climbed trees (Luke, that is), went swimming, jumped, ran, laughed, and took long naps! Such a fun week!
