Halloween is our favorite time of year. We always go to the pumpkin patch by the beach. It is so cool to have green fields, dotted with orange pumpkins and the blue ocean all in the same view. We have been going since Lauren was 2 months old and we always take a picture at the same place so we can mark how much you kids have grown.

This year you had so much fun with the animals in the petting zoo. You are not afraid of anything and especially loved it when the goats licked your face. Dad and I are still waiting for a situation that DOESN"T make you happy. YOu are finally getting old enough for Lauren to play with. She can boss you around and you love any attention that you can get.

You were Yoda for Halloween this year and Dad was Luke Skywalker. Because you are so small, seeing you walk around in your Yoda robe and ears was like seeing the real Yoda. We went to Aunt Erin and Uncle Will's house to go trick or treating. Sweetie (grandma) and Grandpa came to watch you and Lulu go. All you wanted to do was walk up to the door and peek in the house. You didn't want the candy at all. Lauren was Annie at school and a leopard on Halloween night. Two super cute kiddo's.
