We had fun trick-or-treating at the museum with friends this morning, playing outside in the freakishly warm weather this afternoon, and trick-or-treating with a scary bunch from Artisan this evening.

We had one pooped golfer on our hands by the end of the day.

Great round...

Catch you guys at the 19th hole.

Awesome

Not sure where she heard it, but as of this evening this is Vi's favorite word.

R: Here, play with this (as he handed her a produce bag at wegmans).
V: awesome

R: Viley, look at the train!
V: awesome

L: Did you have fun at the store?
V: I sit cart. train. horse. water. cow (as seen on the mural of the wegman's countryside)...awesome.

Is this a conspiracy? Where did she learn this word!?!?!

And so it begins...

Family Getaway

Violet had fun last weekend with the Giannoni/Romero crew when we rented a house in E-ville and spent our time picking pumpkins, roasting marshmallows, EATING goooood food and hanging out with the fam (most of whom are not pictured here - sorry guys - didn't take many pics!).

The house we rented was so nice (thanks Shawnie!) and Vi was infatuated with the enormous stuffed Elk head that adorned the fireplace. To help cope with her fear she said 'DEER!' every 30 seconds while in its presence.

It was a great time and Abel summed up the weekend when he proclaimed, "What's with all the yelling!" during our final breakfast together. It was a fun, LOUD weekend. Viley, you had NOTHING to do with the volume level! ;)

Their first sleepover. Think they had fun?

Grandma, you're under the weather?!?!

I've packed up my car and I'm on my way!

I love you and hope you feel better soon. Can't wait to visit (for real).

Love,
Violet
