My Sister and her Family

J-Man's Birthday

Hard to believe our little man is four years old. He still loves

all things Thomas, so we indulged him a little :) on the cake! His

friends Ben and Michael came over for pizza and cake.

Grandma and Grandpa were here, too!

Dog Bite

I originally posted these pics so Scott could see them at work. They have, however, generated a little interest....imagine that! Evie crawled up behind Bear who was sitting at the sliding glass door. I didn't see what she did, but we can all see what he did! Bear is currently at the Humane Society, where he will be monitored for 10 days and then placed in the adoption pool to get a new home. Just as an FYI, he will be kept until he is adopted! :) We are sad to see him go, but we can't have any biting dogs in a home with children. As Scott said, had he bitten her hand he would probably still be here. He got her across the face. It's hard to see, but there is a small bite mark under her right eye and there are a couple of scratches across her nose. Obviously, her left check took most of the impact. In true Evie fashion, she was over it in about 30 seconds and I'm not exaggerating.

Cold Afternoon at the Zoo

Julie and I took the boys to the zoo for a couple of hours. Brr.....too chilly!

Time for a Haircut

E played while J got a much-needed haircut!

If Renae had seen him, she'd have had a fit about my little hippie-wanna-be!

Happy Halloween!

J-Man was an engineer again this year.

Little E wore J's first costume---the giraffe!

Too cute.
