Christmas Fun

Maggie and Levi look on as Evvie opens her card.


After the presents were all opened, Evvie discovered a carrot tied to a ribbon. Upon following it, she found...well, check out what she found:

Basket o'Joy

A real stand-up guy

This is the way Levi gets ready for dinner lately. He doesn't like the bib. He doesn't like to sit. But he sure does like the food!

Evvie's Eye View

Evvie is making good use of the camera that she received for her birthday. Here are just a few of the highlights:

4th Birthday!

After turning four last Tuesday, we celebrated with a few presents.

Thanks for the awasome fairy house Grampa Jim and Gramma Sue!

We then waited for the weekend for cake and ice cream at Grammy's house.


Thanks for Grammy for the great party pix!


We're into barnyards again for some reason. Give us a good excuse to make pigs of ourselves, I suppose.

Halloween

Evelyn was NOT suffering from symptoms of swine flu, she deliberately dressed up as a pig.

Levi looked just ducky in his outfit

In a whir of pre-pubescent shenanigans, we received over 300 trick-or-treaters to our house in town. After hitting up our street with mama, she happily sat outside and handed candy out to each masked trickster that came to our door. She's currently negotiating for license to eat mass amounts of candy. With a Tootise Roll in her mouth she's a real sweet talker.

The kids sit and snack on the stoop. Evvie on a lollipop, Levi on a pig's ear.

5K Pumpkin Fun Run

Mama runs by once!

Yay mama! Today Evelyn, Levi and I walked to the end of the street to see Mama and Courtney run by in a Halloween Race!

We ventured down another few blocks and 15 minutes later she RAN BACK! After that was a race of our own. I pushed the stroller with Evvie on my shoulders and we cut through backyards back to the YMCA to see mama finish the race! It was an exciting Halloween morning with more fun to come!

Mama runs by twice!

Harvest Party

Umcle Jeddie and Annie's Ol'Fashioned Harvest Party was this past weekend with lots and lots of apple cider to be pressed. Evveie turned the crank on the machine that peeled and cored the apples, and later she turned the one that busted them up into bits. The party was funa nd the cider was delicious!

Girly girl does it up

Islesboro Fun

Crabs! Urchins! Starfish! Islesboro is teeming with life, and we added to it when we visited our friends Adam and Erin. The ferry ride to and from the island is a perfect bookend to this fun getaway spot.



Mama caught a cute starfish! It posed for this picture then went back into the drink.








After a super yummy cookout of sausage and asparagus we explored the beach and surf.
