Pumpkin Carving and Halloween


Here are a few pictures from carving pumpkins.  The boys loved it, and with a few years of dental school under his belt, Josh is a pumpkin carving expert.  Unfortunately, I did not get any pictures of the finished products (I think we had all melted down by that point), but you will have to take my word for it that they were masterpieces! 



The boys were pretty excited this year about dressing up and getting to trick-or-treat. 
Will was a great baby, sleeping through the evening's events. 

Sean is extremely excitable, and apparently if you put a monkey costume on him, he can't stop running and screaming, "I A MONKEY!"  I think the whole neighborhood enjoyed watching him go from house to house.


Henry was so sweet and polite.  It went something like this:
Henry: thank you (after receiving a piece of candy)
Person handing out candy:  no response
Henry: thank you (no response)
           thank you (no response)
           thank you
Person handing out candy: your welcome
Henry: good job! (running down the driveway)  Mom, Dad, they said 'your welcome'!

Funny Henry Moment:
Person handing out candy to Sean:  "You are an adorable monkey."
Henry: "I'm a door bell too!"

Needless to say, Josh and I found much joy watching our boys have a wonderful time, but we were very tired!

Another Mai Tai Please.....

We got the call today....we're going to Florida! Josh was accepted into the AEGD residency at Eglin. We're all really excited, and really surprised to get stationed there. We'll be there for 1 year, then will move to another base after residency. Looking forward to warm days, sandy beaches, and palm trees....a far cry from the moose, salmon fishing, and icebergs of Alaska.
