What we are up to

Wow, it has been some time since I last posted.
Let me see, what have I been up to.
The kids are having so much fun at their new school, and are doing really well.
I am still working as a property manager, volunteering at the kids school, and then all the homework, school work, and laundry I have always done.
I will try to do better in the future, I don't have the kids at home all the time anymore, not sure what to blog about, but I will do my best.

Pickle Juice

Literally.

What Mary can do

These totally cool puzzles came from Grandpa Reinking. We brought them home with us from Indiana and Mary LOVES them!! She put these three together herself with no help in less than an hour.

Mary's loot

We were invited to a party with some of Mary's classmates.
We ate dinner and then the adults took the kids out trick or treating.
After that we came home and I took the kids around the neighborhood.
In all we collected two baskets of candy per kid and would have gotten more if Mary didn't have to come home and use the restroom.
It was a really fun night and the kids had a great time.
