Halloween 2010!

Micah and Mina had a great Halloween. Mina went as a ballerina and Micah went as a pirate. Micah went trick or treating for the first time ever and tried lots of new candy. The church that Jessica works at had a special "blessing of the pets" ceremony for Halloween and Micah and Maddy participated enthusiastically.

Micah and the humongous glasses

We've been busy lately... but our big news is that we just bought a house! We're very excited that we were able to find a place that met all of our requirements and be in an urban location. Both kids will finally have their own rooms. Seth will have an office and we even have a separate music room for the piano! We'll be moving in mid-December so we'll be quite busy in the coming weeks.

Here are some funny pictures of Micah with his silly glasses!

Jump! sort of ...

Does this video make sense to you?

The Farm

Seth took the afternoon off on Wednesday and we took the kids to a pumpkin patch. The Farm, as it's called, is about 45 minutes away from Seattle. Not only did they have a huge pumpkin patch, they also had a hay barn, a petting zoo with lots of animals and a room filled with dried corn. Micah especially had an awesome time.

San Francisco

We went to San Francisco for Elizabeth and Kevin's wedding. It was at a resort-type place in Los Gatos that looked like a place out of a movie. It was filled with animal sculptures, and even a working train. Micah especially had fun feeding all the fish in the koi pond. It was a very short trip but we were able to do and see lots of things. We were even able to fit in a campus tour of Stanford University.

As luck would have it, Grandpa Murray was in SF for business so the whole family was able to meet up for brunch before we left the city.
