Turkey Time

The kids made some stellar turkeys for Thanksgiving. Ingredients: Apples, marshmallows, cranberries, raisins, milk duds and tootsie rolls. Tasty.

Party Time

My lovely wife was kind enough to throw me a party in celebration of completing my doctorate. So here are a few pictures. They include Dad and Meg hanging out, the "Moms" (Laura's, Todd's, and Ben's - that's Laura's sister Betsy's husband...did you get all that), and Emma mugging with Aunty Betsy. Fun times!

Clowning Around

The boy and I decided to have some fun with my new toy. I just purchased a MacBook Pro. Based upon my life up until this point, I almost feel like I'm altering my theological stance. Sure is fun!

Trick or Treat!

Yes, we do the trick-or-treat thing. It is great opportunity for us to get out and connect with our neighbors. Meet people and build relationships where they are! At first, Meg thought it would be better to go trick-or-treating without a costume...but then after I left with the big kids, she realized that she was missing out on the loot. So Laura and Meg joined us later after coordinating our neighborhood location via cell phone.
