Luke says.....

Christmas Eve Luke was going to sleep and he was tossing and turning so Daniel said, "Luke are you ok? Do you need something?" and Luke said, "Shhhhhhhhh!! That's not fair, you're ruining my chances with Santa." Daniel was sure to be very quiet the rest of the night.

Yesterday Luke asked me, "Was I in your tummy or Dad's tummy?" I told him that he was in my tummy and he pumped his hand in the air and said, "YES !!!"

Halloween

When we went Trick -or -Treating, Luke took the bag he had at school and it was already fairly full of candy. We stopped at a friends house and the man answered the door then Luke did a surprising thing. He reached in his bag and handed the man some of his candy. The man at the door was Ray Ledesma, we baptized him a few years ago. He was so touched by Luke's generosity.

I helped at Luke's school Halloween Party and went on the costume parade around the school. I was the last in line so we wouldn't lose any kids. When I would come into the room kids would start yelling, "Hey, Thing One, Thing One!" and they would wave at me. The funny thing was that it didn't just happen with the little kids. Even when we went in to the upper grades the kids would just have to get my attention by yelling "Thing One!" and waving at me. I really don't know why. Anyway after school Daniel had come to help me carry our giant Jack-o-Lantern home and I was telling him how funny it was that all the kids just HAD to wave at me. Just then a car drove by and a man (probably 30 or so) waved at me until I waved back. We laughed.


Mike was sore after hauling our pumpkins up from our garden. It really was a chore. Our biggest pumpkin weighed 78 pounds!

Tea Party

So, we decide that since Luke and Livie learned such bad manners at Nana's house (see earlier video) we would have a nice little tea party at Alison's house where they would show off their GOOD manners. How did they do??? Well, see for yourself.

Homecoming Prince

 

Daniel was elected Freshman Class Homecoming Prince. Each class elects a "Prince and Princess" and then the Senior class elects the Homecoming King and Queen. It was a very nice honor for him. We walked out on the field with him at half time where he was given a sash and sceptor (Daniel kept calling it a wand) Olivia loved playing with the sceptor and she was so happy that her "Prince" had finally come!

Daniel caught a spectacular touchdown pass right before half time that was so fun because we were right by it waiting for the homecoming half time. Daniel is the only freshman on the Varsity Team. They pulled him up to Varsity just a few games into the season. He plays wide receiver and back up quarterback. He threw the first touchdown pass of the season a couple of weeks ago.
