Happy Halloween and...

Happy 11th Birthday to our chocolate lab, CODY! :)

Cailean was home all day with the boys yesterday since it was a Teacher Workday. He took the boys on a bike trip along the American Tobacco Trail. I was at work and missed this adventure, but I definitely heard about it. :) They biked and biked and biked!
When I got home from work we had dinner and then the four of us headed over to NC State to watch the first game of the Baseball World Series, which is pretty much just a scrimmage. We stayed until around the 6th inning and then headed home. They had a lot of fun watching the game and kept telling the guys when they got an out. hahaha

This morning it was raining, so we didn't make it to the parade in town. Bummer! It is such a great parade listening to all the different high school bands. Oh well. We headed over to Dick's Sporting Goods and bought Ian a new pair of sneakers and socks before shopping at Super Target. Cailean decided to head over to Chick-fil-A for lunch and then home to watch the rest of the NCSU/FSU football game.

A few minutes after 4pm Cailean got a call from work that he was needed to help fix a plane in Hartford, CT. ARGH!!!!!! The plane to get up there was leaving at 5pm. So, he hurried out of here and headed to the airport. This was the first time we were not going trick-or-treating as a family. So, the boys got on their costumes and we headed over to Melvin's and Norma's to visit with them for a little bit. Then, off to mom's and then to see Pam and Vinnie. Here they are...

After we went to a few houses in Vinnie's neighborhood, the boys and I went to the Nelson house for some pizza and drinks. Once finished and it got a bit darker, we were off trick-or-treating. Hard to believe I was wearing capris and flip flops on Halloween night! The kids were very hot in their costumes and didn't last as long as I thought they would. Here they are with their buddies, Ben and Luke with their silly faces on:


Ian and Gavin were sound asleep by 8pm tonight! Maybe I should say my Red Power Ranger and Batman were sound asleep by 8pm tonight! LOL

They look very adorable in their costumes!!! I can not believe Cody is 11 already. I miss taking him on rides to see the cows. He's one of the best dogs I've ever been around!!!
