Dress up has been so much fun lately. Finally had the Younkers, Pendletons and Bourassa over, it was fun to get back to our "regular" suppers. Hope everyone is well, The macNeills

a few more pics



Trick or treat!!!

Halloween and the day after






Halloween was a quick fun night with lots of treats!!! The monkey (Thomas) was being held up by the tree (mama) and King Papa and sir Matthew the knight were held captive by the pirate Benjamin.... Thomas was "his monkey". ANyway, our friends joined us and it is amazing how much stuff the kids got in only about 8 houses!!! Matt and Ben ate while watching the bedtime movies and then surprisingly fell asleep quickly. Next day , matt gave ben some horse rides and they played alot together. Thomas watched all the fun, I think he can't wait to play along!!!

Back Home again

















Matt and Ben went for a piggy back ride... well on each other. Poopa and Tom did get that chance to hang out a bit before we left. We then all went in Nadia's run for asthma. The Carlsons were all there and Caleb rode his bike the entire 5 km, and Matt walked/ran it with tante Heidi and Jane Ellen and Papa. I think Jane Ellen is smiling but Heidi is not so sure. I think this picture proves it. Onkel Paul had his hands full with the boys. On our last day we had a quick visit with Tante Heidi and Jane Ellen. Thomas really likes her... always trying to grab on to her. The picture with Tante Heidi reading to the boys, shows us as a reflection on the mirror. We also got to visit with a few of mamas friends at the park... we all happened to have babies , Thomas being the eldest!!! Thomas loved laying on the grass in the feild. The last is a picture of Thomas in the bumbo chair today.. who is still only slowly growing. Hope all are well, the MacNeills.
