Happy Halloween, Time Change, Parent Teacher Conferences and Trial... oh my!

Halloween fell on a Tuesday and it just happened to be the only cold day we have had in weeks... so a little bit of a bummer. But that didn't stop us from trick-or-treating in the neighborhood. This was the first year where Henry was totally in... he had a blast running from one house to the next and yelling at David to keep up. 



my costume was a little tight over the winter gear!! But Henry wanted me to wear my matching Darth Vader suit... figure he won't really enjoy that for many years, so I obliged.




Henry's Halloween sing along. It was cute..







When he finally sees me in crowd and smiles... totally worth missing a morning of work on a super busy day (sort of).  I didn't take a video because honestly... I feel like parents miss so much these days trying to get things on video rather than actually witnessing the event. Literally, 99% of the audience just had the phones in front of their faces rather than watching the show. I am taking a personal stance to not do that, so.. no video, but a quite lovely memory of my sweet boy singing (although what he was singing - no clue)!




 David was off school on Thursday and Friday of last week... for parent teacher conferences. Love St. Mark's, but really.. two days off.. just two weeks before Thanksgiving.. for parent teacher conferences. Ok.. venting over. David had a blast with multiple playdates- he spent two nights at Evans house, then had Charlie over and then Bo and Charlie spent the night, then Evan was back to spend the night on Sat. By Sunday - we were all exhausted! 

Which is good - because on Sunday, we put Matt on a plane to head off to a 2-week trial. 2 weeks of single parenting... during the week we have earnings reporting and board meetings... yay!

 
 Some pictures of playdate fun:








I took the boys to Soar on Sat. to buy some time since Matt had to work 









Matt and I got in a nice dinner in on Sat. night before he left. No pictures, but this wine was pretty darn good.

Oh yea.. and the time changed...

On Friday of last week, it was Dads day at Henry's school. Here made this for Matt. I think he nailed everything but the age


We also had David's parent teacher conference on Friday. Got a great report. Here are some of the report card highlights:
