Izzy's 4th Birthday Party
Since we were at Grandpa and Grandma's house this weekend, and they will be gone next weekend on her actual birthday, we went ahead and had Izzy's party. Here she is enjoying her birthday cupcake that she decorated all by herself.
Opening presents. At this point, Daddy is NOT videotaping the party, instead he's recording the TV and giving his running commentary on how GA Tech just beat Florida State for the first time in 30 years. At least he has his priorities straight! =)
A new school bag.
She also got puzzles, the Memory game, a bunch of craft activities, and a real (although kid-sized) soccer ball, basketball and football.

Halloween
We went up to Steve's parent's house for Halloween this year - to let the kids trick-or-treat around their neighborhood. Here's our 3 little mice...
... and right before we headed out to hit the houses. We made it to 8 homes, pretty good since the houses are a good distance apart. It was pretty funny, at night and in their costumes, we had a hard time telling them apart. We didn't know who was who!

Farm Day
Today was Farm Day at Izzy's preschool. Families were all invited to attend. There was a pony-ride, lots of animals to play with, a tractor to climb on, pumpkins to decorate, face-painting, etc, etc. It was a gorgeous day - clear and sunny - although quite chilly, it's not supposed to get out of the 40's today. Today was actually the first day we had to break out the winter jackets.
Izzy on her first pony ride! She did great and loved it.
Zach loved the bunnies.
Emily chasing goats.
They each got their faces painted - Izzy chose a dinosaur, Emily a heart and Zach got a pumpkin.
Before we went inside, we did a quick hoe-down!
The grand finale was a pinata. Each child got 3 swings with the bat. This was one tough pinata - 3 dads took serious swings and couldn't crack it. We finally just had one father tear it open with his bare hands.
Izzy's teacher Miss Kelley helped Emily.

Little Blessings 3-year-old Class
Here's Izzy's preschool class pictures. These are beyond priceless! The first is probably the best group picture.
This picture is a classic simply because of the little boy in the middle! =)

Kids
Here's a couple random recent pics of the kids.
While at Mohegan Sun last night, we couldn't pass by a Krispy Kreme shop without picking up some doughnuts.
Watching the fire! They're fascinated by it.
On a hayride yesterday.

Capron Zoo
Today was Grandpa's last day with us, so we spent the day at the little Capron Zoo here in town. It was a gorgeous day, absolutely perfect weather - clear, sunny, high 60's. Here's Zach checking out the lions.
This is our famous White Lion, Ramses. He's actually in this week's People Magazine, if you can believe it.
We spent 4 HOURS walking around checking out animals.
Of course, we had to make 2 trips to the feeding pen to feed the goats and llamas.
Taking a ride while we stopped for some lunch.
This bird flew OUT of the exhibit and right over the top of the kids heads. It freaked them out, but they loved it.
Notice the small bird at the bottom of the glass - it's outside the exhibit and Izzy is trying to catch it.
