Lauren is all ready for her first parade! She was in the Woburn Halloween Parade with her Team from Gymnastics called the Squirts.

Here are the Squirts. All the kids ready to go. Here they are with their Coach. Mommy got to walk in the parade too. The girls are all ready to go.

Almost time.

Having fun.

So much fun!

10/30/10: Green Goblins end of season

We had another great season. The kids had a lot of fun and enjoyed playing and seem to also be getting a lot better. Go Green Goblins! Can't wait to see everyone back in the Spring.

Evan looking cute. And Evan and Coach Daddy!

10/29/10: Lauren won the coloring contest!

For the first time Evan and Lauren entered the coloring contest at Market Basket. See my earlier post of her and her brother with their colored pictures. It took them two days to color and they worked very hard. Well I can't believe it but Lauren won the $50 gift card to Toys R Us. Here she is with her card. Her picture is the one in the far upper left hand corner.

And the sign with her name!

10/28/10: Tales of the Night at Drumlin Farm

We went to Drumlin Farm again this year for Tales of the Night. It was lots of fun. Evan was scared last year by the hayride but was brave this year and did it again despite the screaming lady stuck in the spider web.

Here they are at the end of the Storybook characters path.
And checking out the pumpkins. This was Evan's favorite that said Drumlin Farm.

10/28/10: Lauren's Halloween Party at School

Today was Lauren's Halloween Party at school. Mommy got to go in and volunteer and help with the party. It was such a fun time for everyone. We colored, played games, ate snacks and sang songs. Here she is all excited that Mommy is reading the story to the class of 5 little ghosts.

Here she is playing pin the nose on the ghost.
And basketball.

10/25-27/10: Halloween Fun

Well more Halloween activities. The kids colored these wonderful pictures for a competition at Market Basket. We will see if they win.

We went to a Halloween Magic show at the library. The kids liked it.

And here they are at another library doing a parade through the library. Daddy took Evan and Lauren because Mommy was at tap class. I think they all had a lot of fun. They had storytime and music and puppets. Here we were last year.
And here is Lauren and the crew at Neicy's Halloween Party today. It is so funny seeing Lauren as the oldest. Here was last year's party.

10/24/10: Evan and Lauren's 5th Annual Monster Mash

We had another successful Monster Mash Party. All the kids had a great time. We made candy necklaces, decorated cookies and ate lots of yummy food. Here are some of the kids (missing a lot of kids, but I tried)

Decorating cookies, yum!

Cookies! Sugar, sugar and more sugar.

Time for Snow White to drink a beer now that the party is done! She did a lot of work today without the seven dwarfs to help her.

10/23/10: Boo at the Zoo

Another fun event we go to each year is Boo at the Zoo. This is also our third time going.

Trick or treating. The Zoo this year gave out very healthy options for trick or treat which was nice. Cereal, granola bars, and other healthy snacks. With all the candy we will collect trick or treating this was great.
Checking out the bear.

Making crafts. Evan and Lauren love making crafts.

Lauren having fun in the leaves.

The Jaguar.

10/22/10: Halloween Happenings at the Library

We went to the Halloween Happenings party for the third time at the Billerica library again. This is always a fun event with lots of games, crafts and fun things to do on all three floors. Here are the kids having a good time.

Here they are with Evan's teacher from last year. She was reading stories to kids.
