Our Karate Kid!

Conor started karate last week and he loves it! It's been fun to sit and watch his classes. His teacher, Sensei Scott, is so awesome... he has a terrific sense of humor and really keeps the class moving. Conor can already count to five in Japanese and is perfecting his situps and push ups. Mom is happy to help with the situps as she needs to brush up on them herself. :-)

Tricks and Treats

Halloween was quite festive this year. Abby got to wear her costume to school as she had a field trip to a nursing home to sing to the residents with her class. At the end of the day, the entire school participated in a parade around Nativity. At night, we celebrated Halloween on Auten Avenue with neighbors and our traditional walk with Paige and Allen from next door. This year, we ventured around the block with a visit to Conor's teacher/our good friend and her family. Erick was the candy giver outer and Molly was the munchkin escort, dressed up this year. Abby was the most beautiful Tink fairy ever (true we are biased) and Conor protected us all as a good Clone Trooper.
