Halloween 2010

Happy Halloween 2010!
The boys chose to be Characters in Greek Mythology this year

Kyle was Poseidon

Luke was Perseus (he beheaded Medusa)

Nicholas was Ares (the God of war)

Luke

Dylan was Odysseus (A greek King)

He still enjoys Halloween

Ready for battle!

Ready for some Trick or Treating
It is tradition for the Simons and Nevers to trick or treat together

Kyle ended up grounded from Trick or Treating,
but it didn't stop him from helping Raelynn

Jonathan and Dylan come up the road

They have so much energy

Raelynn was a little shy about trick or treating

Luke trick or treating

Clark

Raelynn puttering out
Nicholas and Clark

Jonathan ended up with everyone's costume parts...
He was a good sport about it

Kenny definitely wins the high energy award...
He was a force to be reckoned with

Happy Birthday Dane Armitage


Today was such a great day!
We managed to go up and see Gramma at Rehab...she is doing well
We got new tires on our van
I went out to lunch with Jonathan
Jonathan took Luke to his Orchestra Concert
I took the boys to the Trunk or Treat
Then I went up to the hospital to meet Karen's newest addition to her family

Doesn't she look beautiful?

Carving Pumpkins 2010

Carving our pumpkins together

Jonathan and Luke's pumpkins

Nicholas wanted to carve a mummy
He fizzled out in "helping" relatively quickly

Luke with his "Demon Avatar" Pumpkin


Gooey Hands!

Jonathan is definitely our carving expert.
We would be lost without him.

Dylan wanted to do a 3-D creation

Dylan's Pumpkin Man

Nicholas with his mummy

Not too bad, considering I free handed this ;)
