We've had some very COLD days already this fall... but as of this week, it's pretty nice outside. Cool, yet just right so that the kids can play outside with just a jacket on and not get too cold at all.
Today after school they came home and played on the deck for about an hour with me. Olivia and I kicked the soccer ball back and forth while Paul Thomas rode his trike.
He has never once complained that it's too girly - he doesn't care that it's pink and purple hand me down from Nora... He just loves to get on it and GOoooo!
I think Olivia could kick the ball back and forth all day if I stayed outside with her. They did soccer camp for a week last summer and I think by the next season they'll be ready to play on a team.
So while I was playing with Olivia and taking photos of her at the same time, I look over my shoulder and this is what I saw happening.... Paul Thomas taking a "break" :/ on the hand rail!
We didn't wait for David to get home from work to go with us downtown for the Town's Trick-or-Treating. I called him before I stated getting them dressed and he left work and met us downtown.
Do you even realize how hard it is to get them to pose for a photo?? They are excited, and can't stand still and it doesn't help that Paul Thomas has on a 4 foot wings attachment and keeps knocking his sisters... I tried my best, and kept clicking.... and clicking... Nora was very patient with the twins.
Here we are downtown. They had about 3 or 4 blocks of the main street blocked off and it was one huge street party with all the businesses on both sides of the streets giving out candy to the kids!
Santa was even there and he and Paul Thomas Danced together in the street doing the "Cupid Shuffle"
And the kids had a BIG TIME playing with these!
There was a pirate boat (like a tailor/float attached to a pickup parked in the middle of the street) The kids climbed it and slid down the slide dozens of times.
And sitting all around were 5 gallon buckets of soap and sticks. Have you ever seen those HUMONGOUS BUBBLES??? The ones that are about 4-6 feet big?? Well we got to try making some and it was one big wet mess, but fun!
Can you spot my 'lil gobblins???
