But first…let’s get you caught up!

I had a small stint pretending to be Gran’Mary (she loves to wear this hat when she comes to visit).

I’m sure she makes silly faces like this too!

I also went to the Univ. of Wisconsin homecoming parade.

It was great! They passed out treats and everyone was playing our token song “Jump Around”…

Can you believe this guy was jumping around on rollerblades? He’s crazy!!

After weeks of begging Mama…I finally got my KISS face painted.

It looked awesome!

The only thing I’m missing are my drums!

I also went to my first Halloween party ever…

and it was awesome! We danced and partied all night!

I’m the HUMAN TORCH!!! I love you all, but watch out for my fireballs!

Naptime? No way! I’m ready to go to preschool today!

We’re supposed to be having quiet circle time, but it’s so hard to focus when you’re feeling hot.

We even had a really cool parade today at preschool—where we walked in circles to the music of “The Monster Mash” (and then promptly removed our costumes!).

We also did the Halloween “Hokie Pokie”…well, at least a slightly modified version. The “Hokie Pokie” looks really funny when you don’t know your left from your right!

On Halloween day, Katie, Maddie, Hayden, Mama and I went on a tour of the large No. 1 Fire Station downtown. We had a lot of fun and even got free firemen hats!

Mama and I took the ladder truck for a spin. The steering wheel was huge!

Since I’ve been doing so well in swimming lessons…I thought maybe I could join the boat rescue squad!

Aunt Robyn and I carved our pumpkin this year. Can you guess who he’s supposed to be??? I’ll give you a hint. His initials are PS and he’s in a band!

Finally, Halloween night came and I got to go TRICK OR TREATING!!! (Bring on the chocolate!!)

Aunt Robyn came (she really likes chocolate too) and she had CRAZY green hair!

This house is really close to our house. We’ve been looking at the decorations for 2 weeks now. They had lollipops and although Mama wasn’t that excited I was ecstatic! I love lollipops!!!!!

We also met up with Kyle and his family. We certainly kept the neighbors on their feet!

We stopped at the neighborhood’s haunted garage.

They don’t spook us younger kids too much, but they really get the big kids and the Mama’s and Papa’s. Mama saw something moving and ran away!

I guess you could say I’ve had a busy October! Thank you to everyone for all of the fun. The website seems to be perfect thanks to Uncle Nathan…so don’t forget to come back next week! Have a great week and don’t forget to VOTE on Tuesday!

We made our traditional eyeball cookies…stay tuned for the finished product…

Instead of a haunted house we visited a haunted yard…it was spooky…





but great…I didn’t want to leave!

I think I’ve finally decided on a costume…who’d guess it would have flame hair???? :) Stay tuned for more SPOOKTACULAR Halloween pics!

We went to our local apple farm this past week, Epplegaarden…and had a blast.

Who knew apples could be an aphrodisiac?

See what I mean? It’s like we’re joined the hip!

Oh boy, is right!

We also picked raspberries…although I think I ate almost as many as mom picked!

This past week I finally to go to one of Uncle Pete’s soccer games (he’s been hiding out in Alaska for forever!). It was a very busy game. I left at half-time and the score was already 4 to 1!

We had a blast!

This pig is dirty! He lives on a pumpkin/animal farm.

Apparently we do too!

Hmmm…which one looks the tastiest?

Children of

the corn…

RUN!!!

Can you believe that after that crazy corn maze we decided to check out the haunted silo?

We must have been CRAZY!!!

OR maybe just toddlers?

Who knew farms could be this much fun? I can’t wait to come back! I hope everyone has a great week! Happy haunting!

Mama said today was a preschool day…and I just can’t wait!

See you at 11:30am!

I am still obsessed with Halloween. I can’t decide what I should be this year. I am planning on being a KISS guy for trick-or-treating, but Mama says I should do something different for the preschool party.

I think Darth Vader is really cool, but I don’t think I am tall enough.

We have had an unbelievable tomato season this year. I think we might just turn into tomatoes we’ve eaten so many.

Plus I’m getting extra big muscles from carrying this water hose to the tomato plants and back. I don’t think I see ‘farmer’ in my future!!!

We went to the zoo this past week. Can you believe I haven’t been to the zoo since July??? I KNOW!

In fact, it’s been so long I don’t remember how to get out of here! Help!

Maddie…

and Hayden joined us at the zoo too. I think it was a small invasion!

We even got to see the Polar Bear swim laps! Brrrr…..

Today I got myself dressed…and found this really cool pair of shorts and matching sweater (clearly from Gran’Mary!). I’m going to go for a swing while Mama isn’t looking.

I think somebody raised this swing since I was last out here!

Sheesh that was a lot of work!

I think I need a drink! I hope everyone has a great week…and just remember…Halloween is just around the corner!

Tomorrow is my first day of preschool (really over a week ago) and I got a cool new preschool shirt (it plays 2 different guitar riffs), a new Spider-Man backpack and new super hero socks from Aunt Robyn. I’m soooo excited….

even my butt is excited!

I even had to have a little jam session in honor of the start-up of preschool. Let’s ROCK!

Here I am at preschool! They even have a really cool red Bucky car, which I can drive…

or ride in as a passenger! Drive faster Kyle…run that yellow light, Kyle!!!

At preschool we can also climb and do some of our own slam dunks…

or play dress-up like this. I’ll give you 2 tries to guess who I am pretending to be??? (the blue shirt may or may not be all that important!)

I’ve also been getting back into Michael Jackson’s music. Right now my obsession is with Thriller…and this is part of my thriller dance.

I’m still working on this move. Mama and Papa keep turning the Thriller music off (I guess playing it 100+ times is too many) so it’s taking me a long time to learn the moves! Just one more time….p-l-e-a-s-e!!!

I busted one of my xmas gifts…and got to open it early. I bet you can’t guess what it says!

Did you get it right? For some reason…I put the shirt on…and immediately I had more energy than a lightning bolt! It looks like the website is fine now…I hope the wait was worth it! Have a great week and we’ll see you next Sunday!
