Halloween Past

I couldn't resist looking back at Evan's past three Halloween's (and Ally's past two) it's unbelieveable how fast it's gone! Here is a picture of our group from each of the past three years

Mom's Group Halloween Party

We had our third annual Halloween Party on Sunday night and it is really amazing how the kids have grown!! We had a great time and actually got a chance to talk to each other while the kids played!!

Mall of America pumpkin decorating

I took the kids to Toddler Tuesday at MOA last week to decorate some pumpkins and cookies and just to get into the Halloween Spirit a little more...

Children's Museum Halloween Party

Daddy's Day off

Como Park Zoo Boo

We went to Zoo Boo for the first time last Sunday and altough it was cold, the kids had a great time! It's a great fundraiser for the Como Zoo and it's fun to see so many volunteers dressed up!

More Birthday pictures

Ally is one year old!!

As of Saturday, October 13th Ally is 1 year old! It's hard to believe the year has really gone this fast and that we now have a one-year-old and a 2-year-old!! Ally's party was great fun and here are some pictures of her big day! We are sure to get more from other people so we'll post some of those later too

Big Yellow Bus

I recently got Evan and Ally a new fold-out bus to replace their tent which broke about 2 weeks ago or so. They have such a great time playing in it together and it's fun to see Evan taking great care not to knock Ally over or bump her by accident.

"Ally Cute!"

Every morning when I get Ally dressed Evan says "Ally cute!" after he sees her outfit for the day, it's fun to impress even Evan!

The Shrine Circus

Scott Evan and Aunt Annie went to the Shrine Circus last weekend and Evan wasn't quite sure what he thought. He was a little afraid of the booming voices, the dark and of course the clowns! It was a great idea but maybe next year...:)

Evan

As of Thursday, Evan is 2 years and 4 months old. Even though it is not a milestone age it is amazing to see how he has changed just since the beginning of Summer! The first picture is from June and the second picture is from Thursday.

BLAST playground

On Friday I took the kids along with my friend Betsy and her daughter Ava to the BLAST indoor playground in the Eagan Community Center. The kids had a great time and it really wore them out!
