October

Just in case you don't think you have enough control over your kids--we think we've figured it out. And look how happy they are, too!

Erin played keyboard for the HS performance of Les Mis. Dan managed this picture during intermission. There were 5 performances over 2 weekends, each one being 3 hours so Erin's bum is a bit sore (can you imagine when you see the stools they are on). That doesn't even count the many hours of rehearsals.

It was rather impressive for a HS production and we thoroughly enjoyed it--even shed tears both times I say it. Ryan has made his own barrier to reenact several scenes. He and Kent sing a pretty good rendition of "Red and Black" with all the gusto of the broadway singers.

October means Jack-o-lantern. See if you can figure out who carved which one.

We had our Brady cousins over for dinner. They brought some great spider cookies that we all enjoyed immensely.

And now it's on to November whether we are ready or not!
