HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

We had a fun Halloween evening. Brennan was a turtle this year and I didn't see any other ones out there. He got a lot of "he's so cute" comments, which we heartily agreed with. After a trial-run of costume-wearing at a Trick-or-Treat Trail on Sunday and playing outside in his turtle outfit (see the first video), we did the real thing tonight.

He had fun and said thank you at almost every stop. We had to work with him on the "you only get one piece" concept, but by the end of the evening he had it. He also decided that he was better at putting it in his bag. Someone would go to place it in his bag and he would take it out of their hand and place it in the bag himself.

In the end, the turtle got his little bag full of candy and loved to dump it all over the floor, put it all back in and dump it out again. That's sounds fine to us. But since he doesn't seem too interested in eating it, we might have to help him...:0)

3 C's @ the Corn Maze

Last Thursday and Friday, we hosted Chris, Connie & Crystal for the night on their return from ArKanSAS and their family vacation there. We didn't have a ton of time with them but we did get to go to a local corn maze. We got in for free, which was a bonus. It was actually pretty impressive and Don & Brennan went through twice before they caught up with everyone else and helped them find their way out. Enjoy the pictures!

"Baby Brennan had a farm..."



No, he's not a baby, but Brennan does like to make as many different animal noises as possible. The truth is, it's not just noises either. Yesterday he had an infatuation with Llamas. He drove by a farm on the way home yesterday and the entire rest of the trip was "Llama - Llama - LLAMA!!!" We're not sure if he wanted to see them and believed that all he had to do was say Llama, or what. He was a little tired... And then we read Is Your Mama A Llama?" twice before bed last night.

Enjoy Brennan's animal noises...

Dancing Machine

Here is our dancing boy with his aunt and uncle while they visited for Canadian Thanksgiving. We're singing one of his favourite songs from an Elmo video. Obviously, he's got rhythm from his mom...
