She seems to enjoy playing defense. She can throw and kick the ball really far! She also scored a few goals this year.

cold soccer

Malcolm had a cold (but thankfully dry) day for his last soccer practice.

There was a scrimmage between parents and the kids. Jane had to stand in for me because I have a broken toe.

Halloween!

Malcolm was a red dragon and Jane was a black cat for Halloween!

Dad took them trick-or-treating to some neighborhood homes, then they went to a street close by with a lot of kids and sidewalks. They got a lot of candy!

playground

Halloween was a half day for Jane at school, so we went out to lunch when the kids got off the bus. They definitely had the "crazies" at the restaurant, so we stopped at a playground before we went home.

fall activity day

I helped out at second grade fall activity day. The kids made bats, pumpkins, ghosts and mummies. It was a lot of fun!

Jane asked me to bring her projects home so they wouldn't get crushed in her backpack. When Malcolm saw them he wanted to make them too, so we replicated them all at home!
