We had an amazing sunrise this morning. With my bathrobe still on, I ran outside to snap a few quick photos. I’m sure the neighbors were wondering what I was doing with a camera aimed across the street at them. These are days that we love living in Duluth.
Sebastian and Mike spent the afternoon raking leaves yesterday. Although I didn’t help much, I did get some cute pictures of the kids and Daphne.
I usually take a lot more pictures of Sophia than Sebastian. Sophia is typically very willing to pose for a picture. It usually takes a bribe to get Sebastian to smile for the camera.
The kids both participated in the Halloween parade and classroom parties at school Friday. Mike took his lunch hour to watch the parade and I took the day off to help in Sophia’s classroom with costumes and activities. It was fun to see the kids’ excitement for the upcoming holiday. Sophia was a cheerleader and Sebastian was Joe Mauer.
Sophia’s class made “spider” cupcakes, had popcorn with a Halloween movie, listened to a scary story and received a treat bag with candy and goodies.
After school was over, we decided to carve our pumpkin. Sophia and Sebastian both agreed on a bat this year.
We spent Halloween day with yard work, errands and getting ready for the evening. Sebastian switched costumes for trick-or-treating. He was going for a scary look. Sophia stuck with her cheerleader costume.
Sebastian did some early trick-or-treating in our neighborhood with Sophia and Mike. He went to his friend’s house afterwards for more trick-or-treating and a sleepover. He ended up with about 5 times as much candy as Sophia. I’m sure we will have enough to last us until next year!
