Catching up

I haven't been that great at posting regularly on the blog lately, so I thought I'd at least post some pictures of what we've been up to lately!

 visiting a cute pumpkin farm with good friends

 enjoying hot chocolate (payton's favorite drink! even though it was not that cold this particular day)

 picking a pumpkin to take home

 Woody, the cowboy, and the alien! (getting ready to do the trick or treat path)

 the alien refuses to wear his costume!

 costumes, round 2, Tigger and Eeyore with Rapunzel, getting ready to do libertyville trick or treating.

 visiting Shedd aquarium with friends. We had a such a great time! really a wonderful place

 Parker LOVED the kid's water section

 all wet (I was trying to get a picture of him with the dolphins in the back, but he kept running towards the water stuff... :)   )

Payton (dressed as a penguin), enjoying the penguin playground slide.

 Costume parade day at school (With his best girl- friend)

 With his best friend at school

Parker's latest favorite thing to do, play in the pile of stuff that we recycle. I did not place him there, he has learned to climb in.....
