Circus

Here are pictures from our trip to the Circus in Rosemont IL

getting a clown's autograph


My sister had the idea of making animal hats for the boys. Cole is an elephant, Anthony is a tiger and Elliot is a lion. They did really well keeping the hats on.. it was cute... this is the best picture of the three of them.

Elliot is trying to put the clown nose on- he wouldnt let me help him.

The Lake

A few weeks ago we went up to the lake and our neighbor (the nice one) let us borrow his paddle boat. It was so nice to actually get out on the lake. It was a little chilly but the lake was beautiful.

Trick or treat
Finally it was time to Trick or Treat. Anthony was so excited, he had been practicing all week. He had lots of fun and did a great job saying Trick or Treat and Thank you. Elliot wasnt really into it, he spent most of the time in the wagon- going for the ride and eating a tootsie pop. He did get out at a few houses.

Cousin Cole's Visit

I am finally updating the blog. After this post, there are 4 more to check out. We have been so busy this fall.

Cole came to visit last week and we had lots of fun! Cole is 6 months now! The boys had lots of fun playing in the leaves and trying on their costumes. Cole loved watching the big boys play.







Arts and Crafts

The boys had a great time painting pumpkins and it kept them sitting still for a whole 10 minutes.



Chicago Marathon

Eric ran the Chicago Marathon! He did a great job and we are so proud of him!!





When we got back to my parents house this is what was waiting for Eric. The boys were very proud of Daddy! I think everyone was teary eyed. Good idea Papa Tom!



Pumpkin Farm

We met up with some friends at Goebberts Pumpkin Farm in Hampshire IL. I dont have a lot of pictures because my camera battery was dead. We did get some good ones of the boys feeding the giraffes.
