Happy Halloween!


 
Henry really enjoyed the big bowl of candy.

A train and a cyclops!

Our very energetic girl

Evelyn was thrilled that her swim cap arrived in the mail today.
 
Tonight, Evelyn donned her new swim cap with her goggles and giggled herself silly upon catching a glimpse of her reflection in the sliding door.  Then, of course, Henry had a turn with the swim cap.  It was all quite entertaining.  When I asked for a picture, Evelyn danced and bounced around.  It was the perfect precursor to bedtime!

Over the weekend, Evelyn and I had one of our outtings at a cafe.  We had a great afternoon together.  She drew for at least half an hour and then decided to add stories to her illustrations.  She dictated them to me.  Mostly, the stories involved a rainy day, a rainbow, and an excited girl who went outside to play on the "sunny side" of the house. 

A family portrait (Henry is very tiny and Daddy, according to Evelyn, is actually the tall one with the bob haircut).
