Halloween is coming!

Halloween is my favorite holiday. I am hoping that Halen will love it as much as I do. He is going to be Frankenstein this year. We are also planning on taking him to Green Field Village for their Halloween festivities. Yeah!!!

Thoughts

I have to say that I love watching Halen grow! He is funny and smart and SASSY! He hits the floor running in the morning and doesn't stop until bed time. His mouth runs as fast as his feet most of the day as well.
He"drives" his firetruck to the store for the newspaper. He goes to Ninos to get mom groceries. Sometimes he says he's "just gotta drive some place." He "cooks" us food all the time. We had pizza, pie, burgers and fries on Thursday. He made us all forks out of sticks to eat with too.
He loves to read and be read to. Thomas The tank engine is one of his favorite story books. For the past two years, my mother in law has sent him Ladybug, which is a new book of stories once a month. He loves when his special book from Grandma comes. We read it together and then he likes to go off by himself and read it all alone.

Vacation ,Vacation!

Well, summer is over......
We had great fun this year. Halen loved the pool and LOVES being outside. We spent the last two week of summer on vacation. Carl & I took Halen to Great Wolf Lodge in Traverse City and then we came home for four days and took back of to our cottage up in Leroy. (By Cadillac) We had so much fun. Halen loved the lake and getting dirty!

We went for some nice drives up in Traverse City and took Halen to lake Michigan and to a light house. Again, he loved the lake. He is just a fish. When we were at Great Wolf, he floated on his back through the lazy river. I was surprised at how much fun I had at the water park. Maybe is was just watching Halen have fun.
