Happy Halloween!!!!

Wow! That came fast and sure went fast. Halloween was here and gone before I even got one single decoration up. Ok ... that's a lie. My dad bought us this scary guy that pop out of some prison bars screaming hey let me out of here, so that was hanging in my hall way...and the scarecrow wreath which I won at our MAI party was hanging. :) So not all bad!

So the kids had a wonderful halloween. Filled with treats of course. Most of the festivities were cancelled due to the H1N1 scare this year. But we still got to go out Trick or Treating. Here are my little vampires!

Friday night however we took a little time out of our busy schedule to carve our pumpkins. The kids had a blast. Jadian did a scary pumpkin, Ocieanna did a cat pumpkin and Kadyn did a pumpkin with 6 eyes!

And then there was mommy and daddy time. Cecil played for the annual Barn Halloween Party
and that meant I got an invitation! I had a ball! And here's my costume...scary???

Who can resist the colors of fall

Captivating...these colors draw us in. Although the end of summer has come upon us, we welcome the change of season. The beauty which lies before us. Life has been keeping us busy here at the Blackmore house.

Cecil is busy at work and keeping the satellites in town up to par. I'm holding my own at work and teaching and participating in Tae Kwon Do three nights a week.

The kids are doing well. School is going extremely well this year. So far so good!

And Mr. Kadyn is busy into Preschool as well. He goes once a week this year. Hard to believe that he'll be in Kindergarten next year. He spends his days at Nanny's house exploring the cove.

Ocieanna is back in Brownies, cookie day went well. Sold all of her cookies and made a few tips along the way. Next is their halloween party tomorrow night.

Jadian desperately wanted to be back in Cubs this year, but lack of volunteers has cancelled it for this year. It's too bad, it was such a great program. So i've promised him that I will take him on outings and try to make up for what he'll miss. Our first outing was last weekend. We went on a hike to Cheeseman's Beach from the Park. We took the trail all the way out to the beach and walked back on the road. It was a long walk but not once did I hear anyone complaining...they absolutely loved it!

End of summer!

The end of summer is nearing us. Time for back to school, shopping and just getting life back in order, trying to find time to find a routein. Something I'm not so good with these days.

Summer was fun! FUN!!!! We had a faboulous many days camping, spending time with friends and family, trips hiking, to the beach, to rivers. And most important of all we went on a much needed vacation. This year we did the "Moncton" thing that everyone raved about...well much to our surprise we are now the "ravers". What an awesome time we had! After Moncton we went to Oromocto to visit with my uncle and his family and then back to PEI to visit my cousin and his family. 10 days of fun and lots of spending! But OH so worth it! Can't wait to go back!
