STRIKE! Try again...

October is lots of fun for us -- getting ready for Halloween and cheering for our teams in the race for the World Series.

I've been working on costumes all month. Drew's costume from last year has been refitted and he'll be a little Jedi. He loved trying on his robe -- he just wanted to run around the house in it.

Brent will don his Jedi garb again, and I'm almost done with my Padme Amidala (Episode II battle) costume.

We're watching Game 6 with Yankees (Brent's team) vs. Angels (my team). Drew wanted to get in on the action, so yes, we played ball in the house.

But how many 2 year olds do you know who can hit the ball by themselves? Drew's a natural! Look at that form -- elbows just right and hands above the barrel! We just need to work on the stance...

We also got to enjoy the crisp fall weather. On Friday, we went to Chester's Party Barn. We had to bundle up, but it was a blast roasting hot dogs by the fire, seeing animals up close in the petting zoo, taking a hay ride and wandering through a corn maze.


We got there right at sunset. It was really cool looking out over the little pond, with campfires all over. It felt like the perfect October night.


Happy Haunting this week!
