October

We are super behind with blogging so I'm playing a little catch up.  I uploaded all the pics and then realized these are all from October.  We had a pretty busy month!

 Looking cool, always.

 Little Mozart.

 Nathan's wise beyond his years and often he looks it.  He already has the "grandpa" look sitting in his favorite chair in the house- his rocker.

 Nathan enjoying one of his favorite past times.

 Three little munchkins before going on a hayride (from left: Nathan, Lisa, Aiden).

 Pumpkin checkers.

 Nathan's first hayride.

 Cornbox instead of sandbox. Soooo fun!

 Not quite tall enough...

 We took a flag with us in the corn maze in case we couldn't find our way out, we just wave the flag. Nathan got a good head start.

 The corn maze map.

 A couple weeks before Halloween I had my traditional pumpkin carving party. We carve pumpkins and watch "Hocus Pocus".

 Just cruisin' at the NC State Fair.

 Can't quite see him, but Nathan's first ride. He didn't like it much.

 Nathan's second ride with Daddy.  He liked this one MUCH more. So much in fact...

 That he rode the ride again with Grandma.

 Petting zoo. A creepy camel kept following us around looking for food.

 Andrew and I also hosted a murder mystery with a few close friends.  From left: Polly Abdool, Jessica Bunny, Lindy Lauper (the murderer), Toni Oregano, Spunky Brewster, Debbie Gribson

 From left: Nork from Pork, Danny Son, Howard Scott, Wee Pee Vermon, Alligator Dundee (the victim- death by Rubik's cube)

 Such a good sport... all I gotta say...

 Went for a little train ride at the Durham Life and Sciences Museum. Nathan loved the train!  And a new obsession begins.

 Halloween at Grandma and Grandpa Moore's house.

In case you couldn't tell... Nathan's the one on the left...

Nathan trick-or-treating in the rain, but loving every minute of it!  He knows exactly what to do: knock on the door, hold up the pumpkin and smile (he can't say trick or treat yet, but if he could, he would). I'm so proud.

Below are some videos to put a smile on your face. Video 1: Nathan just a bit too excited about some olives. Video 2: Nathan and Daddy playing with dinosaurs.  Mommy is not as good at playing with dinosaurs as Daddy. Video 3: Nathan playing the piano. Video 4: Nathan going down a slide all by himself (this was actually in August or September, but I just got it off the camera now).
