Final Soccer Highlights
SoccerTykes ended a couple of weekends ago for Luke. We are taking some time off from activities and hopefully will start up again after the New Year.
Here are some highlights from Luke's last day:
Kicking a goal! Luke is in the green sweatshirt!
And here is a fun clip where we unexpectedly got an up close glimpse :)

Halloween 2012
We had a fun Halloween. Most of the day was pretty typical for a Wednesday, but then we got home and transformed into Spidey and Minnie once again!
It was a little chilly so Minnie wore her boots and Spidey refused to wear his mask!
And some pics with Mommy and Daddy!
It's time to go!
The first stop was our next door neighbor's!
After a couple of stops on our block, Paige got in the wagon, Luke was excited to keep on going, and I headed home to hand out candy.
I have to say this one was my FAVORITE trick-or-treater :)
But they still weren't done. They took Nala with them this time and hit up another block.
After about a total of 50 minutes, they made it back home to eat supper and of course enjoy some candy! This little girl was a little cold and looking a little disheveled with some blue lips not from the cold, but from some M&M's she managed to open on her own while in the wagon!
I think Luke may have been more excited to be home handing out candy than actually out trick or treating. He loved it and was talking to the kids at the door like crazy!
But wait, it's dark out? Who doesn't want to trick or treat in the dark? Back out Luke and Wally went!
This little one still stayed "in costume" but pajama style!
It was another fun Halloween! And since I seem to have a bad rap when it comes to Halloween I would just like to show my festive shirt and socks (same as last year) and I even added a witch's hat this year!

Preschool Halloween Party
On Tuesday, the preschool celebrated Halloween by letting the kids wear their costumes to school and having a party! (I have to say as I was dropping Luke off and watching the other kids walk in, I began to panic wondering if he was supposed to wear his costume. None of the kids I saw appeared to be dressed for Hallowen! Thankfully, I think most of the kids I saw were in the 4-year old class and they were celebrating on Wednesday. Phew! How embarrassing if Luke was the only one in costume! That would be a big Mommy fail! Or maybe it is better than being the only one NOT in costume!)
Paige and I sent Luke on his way with his treat bags for the class and then we headed back for the party at 11.
One of my favorite moments of the day was when Paige and I first got to Luke's school for the party. The kids were having their "recess" upstairs in the building since it was so windy outside. Luke came busting through the doors and when Paige saw him, she went running towards him with her arms out and the biggest smile on her face. I think she may have even squealed! She was SO EXCITED to see her big brother. My heart melted! And you could hear all of the "awes" coming from the other moms standing there too.
It is fun to be in the classroom with Luke and see his personality in that setting. From talking with his teachers a bit, they have told me that Luke is very smart and a little more advanced than the rest of his class. In fact, they said that they wish he was in the Monday/Wednesday group since they were a little more advanced than the Tuesday/Thursday group. They also said though that it is good to have someone like Luke in this class. He doesn't appear to be bored, although he did finish the few projects/crafts pretty quickly while I was there and was looking for the next thing to do. Hopefully they can continue to keep him busy and I know he still has a lot to work on and learn! But I am very proud of him and how well he is doing in school!
Anyways...whoa! Back to the party....all of the kids looked so cute in their costumes and Paige was such a good girl. She was a little shy with the teachers and made sure to stay right by my side at first. At one point though, she climbed right up into the seat to eat some graham crackers too! She isn't shy when it comes to food! Finally she made her way over to the play kitchen and entertained herself!
The kids had a few songs to sing for us, but I have say control was a bit lost at this point. It was time to go and every.single.mom was there so it was crowded and the kids were flying high!
