Happy Halloween

It's a little cooler now, the sun is setting a little earlier, and the leaves are changing color. That can only mean one thing. It's time to dress up and go door to door and beg for candy. The girls had a fun Halloween and they took in a pretty good haul. Weslie dressed up like Robin, as in Batman and Robin, and Gabbie dressed up as Snow White.

Race for the Cure

I (Danny) ran in my first 5k today. I had a few different venues to choose from but chose to run in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. I thought that it would be less crowded than the Baltimore run and plus if I'm going to give my money to someone I couldn't think of a better cause. As far as it being less crowded I wonder if any of the other 30,000 plus thought that? Anyway, it was a beautiful day but cold. I got in a fairly fast crowd and was able to keep up and finished with a time of 23:40. A personal record.

Pumpkins

Weslie had a soccer game this morning and then afterwards we went to a farm to get some pumpkins. Weslie did ok playing soccer but it seems she is more interested in talking to the other team. Then we went to a local farm that gives hayrides and lets you pick your own pumpkins. Gabbie kept trying to pick up pumpkins that were almost as big as her and then say, "Daddy, it heavy".

Let's All Go to Dutch Wonderland

Because we didn't really have a party for Gabbie's birthday we thought we would do something special, so we went to Dutch Wonderland. All the rides are just the girl's size and there were lots of them to ride. Gabbie and Weslie had a blast, but I don't think I've ever seen them so tired when we got home later that night.

Happy Birthday Gabbie

Man have we been busy. We just got back from Florida, Danny's parents are visiting, and it's also Gabbie's Birthday. As always we bought her too many toys.
