The Apple Business

This is us and our recent adventures with apples! The kids' newest area of expertise: How to spot a wormy apple. We had a great time! Joey with apple skin hair... I think he'd make a nice blondie, oh wait, he is a blondie.
Joey being silly.
Michael, the apple peeling maniac!!! There was NO STOPPING him!
Wondering where Adelyn is? Behind the camera, also an area of expertise.

Joey...

Me: You look sharp today. Let's try and keep clean today, yes? Especially your Polo shirt... it's a real Polo you know.
Joey: I will not get my Polo shirt dirty today.

The specs for Halloween 2009

one ninja, one fairy princess, and one bumble bee... make that two!(do you see MJ posing in the background as the other fairy princess?)

5 Pumpkins carved. We each had our own... Adelyn did hers with absoultely no help this year (bottom picture, far right).
Some activities auditioning to become family traditions
  • roasting pumpkin seeds
  • dinner in a pumpkin
  • and last but not least, trading the kids Halloween candy for ANY candy they want at the gas station (Michael chose a sour candy extinguisher, and Adelyn chose gummy "fast food"). And for the record, I don't think that makes us mean parents.
