Happy Halloween 2010

Yummy pumpkin seeds, we saved them this year and baked them (a week later). They were delicious. Carson and I ate them all in one setting.

Carson and Jess scooping out the pumpkin. Joe didn't come home for Halloween, so the pumpkin carving was up to us.

Carson (as you see) did the scooping with his hands, whereas, Jess did the scooping with a spoon. Then her princess hands didn't have to get orange and sticky.

Sharpie decorations on the miniature pumpkins

Carson getting his hair dyed "black" for his Harry Potter get-up.

It turned out auburn instead of black. And it's still auburn on Nov. 7th. He'll be blonde again by June.

Hermione Granger is walking to school with her poofy hair.

Our friend, Kimberly Kuhn, with Garrett

Garrett wasn't feeling very well this evening and especially didn't want to smile.

Yes, I should have zoomed the camera a ton more! Video taking is usually Daddy's job, but he's in Phoenix until June 18th. Then we're meeting him in Hawaii for 2 weeks.

Tuesday 22 September 2009

Carson was on the Yongsan Barracuda Swim Team this summer. He and Jess practiced from 5:30 am until 7:00 am in June and July. Carson's 1st swim meet was on the Saturday we left for the U.S.. He swam the 50 meter freestyle and then we had to rush off to the airport.

Our little fish - getting ready to warm-up.

Garr Bear and Lizzie

Garrett and his friend Elizabeth love to play with Jessica's plastic dress-up shoes. They even fight over the "Rose" shoes. Those are the pink Sleeping Beauty shoes. Lizzie loves sleeping beauty and even calls her by name, Rose.

Garrett will love this picture when he's 14, won't he? Nice drool spot down the front of his shirt.

Garrett is enjoying Jessica's electric guitar at "Sissy's" 6th birthday party. Our friend, Alex, is also diggin' the guitar.

Cool dude - Garrett is enjoying some daddy time (sporting Daddy's shades) at Jessica's birthday dinner at the Navy Club.

Garr Bear hanging with Mommy at the Dragon Hill Oktoberfest. We've had a busy September with lots of social gatherings and Garrett is always a trooper and such a sweet boy about being carried from one event to the next. Now when people see him running around out of his stoller they ask, "Is this the same baby as last year who was always in the stroller?" Poor guy, he does spend a lot of time either in his stoller or the backpack. Since we live on the Army Post we walk everywhere. Even last night we walked to Cub Scouts and Carson asked, "Mom, why do we have to walk everywhere? Can't we take the car? Nope, we're getting into shape while also saving the environment!" is my reply. This video is Garrett and Lizzie in action with their dress-up shoes.
