Halloween

This was our first Halloween here in NJ. The boys are totally into Transformers. Shawn was Optimus Prime and Ethan was Bubblebee. You will see from the pics that Ethan is a blur but that is because the kid can't keep still. I am sure you can imagine what he is like during a normal day.

First Field Trip

The boys first field trip was to a pumpkin patch right before Halloween. I went along and took some pics. It was a fun morning.

Anniversary

October marked our 7 year wedding anniversary. Although we didn't really do much, we took a day off and did some shopping, had a nice lunch, and got a massage all before picking up the boys from school. I also got a really nice ring :).

Friends Birthday Party

Here are some pics taken from a friends birthday party. The friends have two girls, one of which is in Shawn's class and the other is in Ethan's class.

The Beach and NY

Here are some pics from when we went to the beach and when we went to NY. I hope you enjoy. As always, you can see all the pics on our Shutterfly site.

The Last Few Months....

Wow....the last update was Ethan's birthday. That was back in July. Okay. A very quick summary. August, well we all know that that is MY birthday :). Pics to follow. We actually did try to make it out but had some issues. Our car got impounded. Unfortunately not all of our mail is correctly forwarded so we never got the notice about our California registration expiring because of insurance. Even though we were insured in NJ there was a disconnect about CA knowing this....hence....the suspension of our registration. So while on our way to what was supposed to be a nice dinner, we got our car impounded.

Hey, always have to find the good....so at least after this our car was registered in NJ. Why do I stay banking with OCTFCU....because their customer service is awesome. They helped sort out our mess so quick that we had our car back in no time.

Right before the incident.

Update

I think my saying "it's been a while" is becoming the common thing to say. It is getting harder and harder to keep up. So I will have to sum up our last 6-8 weeks in photos. I hope that's cool.

In brief, after Ethan's birthday it was mine. I went back to Cali as, so sad to say, for my uncle's funeral. We have been trying to make more of an effort in getting out and seeing our new home. We did get to go to New York again and actually had a nicer time. I think it will just take a little getting used to. Hummm...what else???? No...we haven't finished unpacking but we have so much stuff that to move it took a big rig. I donated a lot of stuff before leaving Cali and am donating a lot here. I am hoping that by the end of the year I will have only a few boxes left to unpack.

Okay...with that said, I will be uploading a pictures of what we've done since Ethan's birthday.
