Halloween Fun




We had a great Halloween and wanted to tell you all about it!
We went to the pumpkin patch a couple of weekends ago and picked out our own pumpkins for our front porch. We carved our pumpkins on Tuesday while we watched "It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" and Gray was right in the action with his giant spoon throwing seeds all over the living room! Daddy carved an Elmo pumpkin especially for Gray and he did a great job!
Today we ran errands with Mommy and Daddy and ended up at Rick's bakery where Gray got to pick out a Halloween cookie. After a brief afternoon nap, Gray went trick or treating at the Promenade in Rogers where he saw jugglers and all kinds of fun costumes. He carried his little monkey friend in one hand and his trick or treat bucket in the other and was, as usual, the main attraction wherever he went. He put on a dancing show in front of the radio station van while it played music and drew a crowd of onlookers and everyone loved his costume!
After trick or treating we decided to have dinner at Mommy and Daddy's favorite restaurant Carrabas (that was our treat). Gray made a grand entrance and charmed the entire wait staff and manager who brought him a banana to go with his costume. The manager had a fit over him and took a picture of him with his cell phone holding the banana and each of the waiters took turns coming to our table to talk to him! We had a great dinner and then went over to Ya-ya's house where Gray entertained Lori and her two friends with his ABC's and other songs. He had some pizza and a sucker that Ya-ya gave him and didn't go to bed until 11:00!!!
Love to everyone!
Corey, Somer and Monkey-man Gray!

We've finally joined the club!

At the encouragement of many, we have finally created a family blog!
Stay tuned for all of our family's exciting adventures or lack thereof - ha!
