10/18/08: Boo at the Zoo

We went to Boo at the Zoo at the Stone Zoo today. It was hosted by Radio Disney. We got to see animals, our friends Sophie and Jack, went through a haunted maze, and got to Trick or Treat. Mickey and Minnie got lots of compliments on their costumes.

Look at all the caged animals we saw at the Zoo! Oh wait, that is Mickey and Minnie caged in.

Hanging out with the Black Bear.

And Evan hugging the black bear (well a fake one but still). Lauren wasn't too sure about him as you can see her looking on.

The kids had fun on the train! Lauren especially was giggling away.

10/16-17/08: Halloween Music Time and Crafts

Well it is that scary time of year again, Halloween! Lots of fun activities to come for Lauren and Evan. Here we are at the Billerica Library on 10/16 after making a Pumpkin head craft.

And here we are at Music Time today at the Reading library. It was especially busy there today. The kids were asked to come in costume, so our little Mickey and Minnie were happy to join in the fun. Here is Minnie (aka Lauren) enjoying the show.
And here is Mickey (aka Evan) checking out the Monsters that jump on the bed.

10/14/08: Evan's Alphabet Song and Couting

Evan decided to show off his skills tonight by singing the ABCs and counting. Let's see if school is teaching him anything.

Hmmm....only missing a few letters in the ABCs.

And he did start at 1, just wasn't fast enough with the camera. He gets to 12, not bad?

Stay tuned for other things Evan learns. He will be going to Smolak Farms next week for a Field Trip with school. Mommy is chaperoning.

10/12/08: Fun at a Wedding

Evan and Lauren got to get all dressed up and go to a wedding for Mommy's 2nd cousin Tricia-Marie. The kids had a great time and looked adorable.

Here is Mommy's cousin Steve walking his daughter Tricia-Marie down the aisle.

10/11/08: Another fun day at Smolak Farms

After soccer today we headed over to Smolak Farms for a hayride and some fun. Evan will also be going to the farm for his first field trip with school. Stay tuned for that later in the month. Mommy is going to be a chaperone. He is more excited about going on a bus than about going to the farm I think.

Is that Llama my Mama asks Lauren? No just a book sweetie.

After the farm we headed to Maria's birthday party. What a busy day!

We went to the Circus at the TD Banknorth Garden.
