Halloween

I am one of the room moms for Jackson's class and was able to help out for the Halloween party.  I needed to plan a party without food because his grade has many allergies so the teachers decided all parties will not have any food or treat bags. We did two cute crafts to start out and then read and colored Green Witch, Green Witch. It is a beginning reading book and then acted out 10 Trick or Treaters!  It was a lot of fun and gave me a chance to be in the classroom for an afternoon.  Mike says I am itching to be back in the classroom.  Don't think I am ready to get back in saddle just yet ;)

That evening we had our neighbors and some families from the playgroup over to go trick or treating.

Jackson and his friends ready to go!  

Ryan, Joe, Kylie, Jackson and Carson.  Notice the witch has her around the spiderman!

All ready to go trick or treating.  So glad we brought the wagon because Emilie was not into trick or treating.  Andrew had a great time. Emilie lasted 15 minutes and we were back to the house!

 The only picture I have of the family and it is blurry!!! Captain America!

 Jackson wanted to be Spiderman without the muscles!

Trick or Treating at Maefair

I organized an activity for our toddlers to go to the local nursing home in Trumbull for Halloween.  The residents loved it and the toddlers loved running through the halls trying to get the tennis balls off the walkers.

Hanging out at Benedict's Farm

Our playgroup meets one day a week after lunch.  This week we decided to meet at the farm so the kids could play in the cornpit, see the animals and jump around in the haystacks.  It was a fun afternoon.  I just wish Jackson could have come as well.  

 Emilie and Andrew having a great time going down the slide.

Happy First Birthday Evan Staffaroni!

Evan was born 5 months after Andrew and Emilie on October 19.  Sally planned a pumpkin party to celebrate and had some really fun activities planned for the kids.  From hayrides in the wagon to decorating pumpkins.  The kids loved it!

Evan digging right into his cake!

 Andrew and Emilie love climbing up the slide and sliding down!

   

Checking out the Trumbull Fire Department

We decided to get out of the house and walk to the FireHouse for their Open House!

Huge bouncy house shaped like a firetruck!
