Pumpkins and Halloween

On one of our quick visits to the house, we had the boys take a few pictures with the sole pumpkin we had with us.  And they turned out to have fun!  And then we followed that up with Halloween with our ninjas!

Enjoying soccer

Cooper had a great time at his soccer classes this year.  And we enjoyed the nice weather!

October in NY

Instead of the gang heading down to VA to celebrate Lorraine's birthday, we headed up to NY to celebrate.  We went to the Bronx Zoo and got a taste of Halloween, and had lots of fun hanging together around the house.

Clowning around

At the end of September, we celebrated Ria's retirement party, which meant we got to say hello to lots of old friends who are now much bigger.  We all had a load of fun!

Entering fall

After Labor Day, we moved into a temporary apartment while our house was repaired.  This resulted in us exploring a new neighborhood, as well as the start of Cooper's soccer class. Here are pictures from our September adventures.
