Happy Halloween

We went to see Mom and Mimi at work on Halloween day. Mom dressed as a cowgirl and Mimi was a jester (or Krusty the Clown as Dad called her). Then we got ready for trick or treating with Harris and his parents Anne and Zayn. We got lots of candy and went to a party at North Frederick Elementary School. I had so much fun. Here's a picture of Mom and with our pumpkin, Daddy as John McCain and some pictures of Harris and I before and after trick or treating.

A new chimney

Pop Pop is building us a new chimney so that we can use our woodstove and furnace at the same time. It is going to be really cool. It will be built into the wall like an alcove and will be safer cause we can put up a gate in front. Here we are digging the footer to help Pop Pop out . . .





Fall fun

October was a busy month. Pop Pop Great (Benson) spent the month in the hospital and we tried to visit every day or so (see me dressed as a Doctor to make him feel better!!). We went to PA for the 5th Chilith Chili Cook-off Party at the Smith's and had a blast with Willow and Baby Quade. We visited 2 pumpkin patches - one with friends Henry and Gracie and the other with Willow. Mom got a promotion to be the first Director of the Office of Environmental Sustainability for Frederick County government and Dad got a job as Stage Technician for Frederick's Weinberg Center for the Arts. There was a lot going on . . .
