We got to go up to Stefanie and Joe’s place tonight (neighbors and friends) to their 4th annual pumpkin carving party. What fun! Joe had raked up the maple leaves into a huge pile and waited until all the kids were at the party, then counted to three and they all dove in. Our boys thought it was just about the coolest thing ever. They threw leaves, jumped in over and over and buried eachother in them. The grown ups carved many pumpkins while the kids were busy playing. Our little guys were tired from the Wilkes Carnival earlier in the day, a walk along the beach and no naps so we brought them home. A nice warm bath and a warm cup of tea (yes, they drank some Soothing Moments tea, we thought it might mellow them out a little) and they are now content watching Polar Express before the head off to bed.

What a great day we had, truly enjoyed spending time together today.
