Trick or Treat!

Tarzan, Jane, and the 3 monkeys get ready to trick or treat!
Kylie is the monkey on the left.

We got "dirt pies" from Bonnie & Hambone - we waited to try them until Saturday, but we LOVED them!! Especially Kylie - Mom used a lot of Spray & Wash on our shirts that day!

Our trick or treating was scaled down this year - we went to Richardson's, Peterson's, Soderstrom's, Cockeriel's, Starken's, Stehura's, Tenner's, and the Fire Station (pretty much the same route as last year). At every house, we had to help dump out the entire bowl of candy - then help refill it again, and again, and again... We convinced Mom & Dad to give us a few bites every once in a while, but they won't give in as much as Aunt Angie! We ended up at the Sheehan's for the second year - Cy loves their house, and the girls enjoyed the freedom of no more costumes while Mom & Dad had a beer with Mike & Sue.

On Saturday, we went to the Oman's for a party - this was the first time kids could attend. Everyone was impressed we knew "beer" and "pop", and that the little monkeys were true monkeys - climbing EVERYWHERE! Mom brought us home to the babysitter (Sydney), and she went back to the party for a little while.

It was such a great weekend to be outside, we did all kinds of things! We helped Daddy rake leaves - we did most of the work (pictures always tell the truth, right??).

We also helped Mom & Dad clean the garage - we tipped over Mom's bike, emptied out rubbermaids, and rearranged the pumpkins - all very necessary work!

We loved Mommy's hat on Halloween - we tried both of her hats on - we liked the witch's hat on Mom, and the Spider web hat seemed to fit us a little bit better.

Last weekend, we cleaned pumpkins with Grandma & Papa G - Mom & Dad didn't want to miss out on the fun - and the nice weather - so we cleaned out MORE pumpkins last Thursday night. Neela really wanted to use the spoon to clean the pumpkin - and Kylie loved the "seeds". She dug them out - then put them on a spoon and tried to feed them to Mom. I wonder who taught them that... (PAPA!!!)

Neela is in love with Elmo right now - she and Elmo took a break (with Cy) while Kylie kept working on the pumpkins.

What else is new? Kylie has all of her eye teeth at various stages - Mom hopes that helps her sleep better - but helping herself to Mommy's latte last Saturday certainly didn't! Neela's teeth are not coming in as quickly, but that's been the story all along.

We hope everyone had as much fun as we did in the last few days!
Have a great Election Day - Mommy's taking us to the polls tomorrow (we'll get stickers!!).
