Pittsburgh & Halloween

Morry and Evan were in Pittsburgh from Thursday to Monday visiting schools. They had a great time.

I picked them up at the airport yesterday.

Last night, Noah went trick-or-treating with friends.  Evan helped us pass out candy for a little bit and then went trick-or-treating with one of his friends.

We all had a nice night.

Here are a few pictures.

Halloween 2020

Today Evan had games at 1 and 3.  

I brought Chewie to Evan's first game.  Everyone enjoyed seeing Chewie and he loved all of the attention.

Evan played really well.

Morry picked up food at Chipotle for the kids on his way home.

Josiah came back to the house until his dad could get him.

I picked up Torchy's for Morry and me.

The boys ate as soon as they got home, they got dressed in their costumes and we took them to Reid's house to go trick-or-treating.

Evan was Marty McFly from Back to the Future and Noah was Maverick from Top Gun.

Morry and I took a walk after getting home.  We stopped by to see Mom/Grandma and Dad/Papa, and ate our food once we got back home.

We had a ton of trick-or-treaters from around 6-6:30.  We thought we might run out of candy, but then it slowed down by a lot.  We hardly had anyone come by the rest of the night.

Around 9pm we went to Reid's house to pick up Noah.  We stayed and talked with them for a little bit before we came back home.  Evan is spending the night there.

Evan got 12 pounds of candy and Noah got 9 pounds.

Here are a few pictures from Halloween over the last several years.

Chewie's Trainer and Thrift Shops

 Today Chewie's trainer came by to show us everything she has worked on with Chewie.

Then, Morry and the boys watched the Steelers game.

After that, we went to two different thrift shops to find stuff for the boys to wear on Halloween. Evan was successful, but Noah wasn't.  We will have to find something for him online.

Then, we did our grocery shopping at H-E-B.

Evan went over to Reid's house to go swimming tonight.  He just got home.

Now Morry and I will sit down for a little bit and probably watch the last episode of Schitt's Creek.

Halloween 2018

This morning we walked Noah to school.

I was at my school from about 11:30 - 1:30 and then I came home.

I drove with Chewie to pick up Noah from school.

We ate an early dinner (corned beef) around 5:30 and starting trick-or-treating about 6:00.  Noah's friend Grayson joined us.

It was raining for about the first hour, but then it stopped.

We stopped trick-or-treating around 8:45pm.

The kids each got 11.5 pounds of candy!

Now everyone is getting ready for bed.

It was a fun night.

Full Day

This morning Morry and Chewie walked Noah to school.

I was at my school from 8am - 12 noon and then went to H-E-B before going home.

Morry and I walked with Chewie to get Noah from school.  Noah had a field trip today and it sounded like he had fun.

Noah played outside with Brodie this afternoon.

For dinner we made and Everyplate beef sandwich meal.  The kids ate well. 

After dinner, we went to the Thrift Store to look for items for the kids' Halloween costumes.   Evan wants to be Marty McFly and Noah wants to be Doc from Back to the Future.  We were able to find some good stuff for Evan, but nothing for Noah.  I think we'll have to shop online for Noah.  Does anyone have a lab coat we can borrow?  :)

Here a picture from tonight.

Soon the boys will get ready for bed.
