My Halloween cookie, looks like the gremlins attacked it:

9 years together

 
October 31, this time 9 years ago, we committed ourselves to each other  It feels like the other day and a lifetime ago at the same time. 
Life is a little more crazy 9 years later, so crazy that we don't even have a pic of the two of us together!
Happy times ;-)

Selfies








Who needs wheels??


 Who needs an actual walker when you have a chair and a smooth floor?

I use my super strength to push the earth and in turn I walk
And its hysterically funny... 



Cause I'm just O so clever

Rochester Halloween parade

 
Lots happening this Saturday, almost every center round us is celebrating Halloween in some manner or another.  Essentially, the kids get dressed up, trick or treat, sugar rush, go crazy and the parents breathe....breathe deep and long ;-)   
 
 
Costume fitting
We decided to head down town to the Plumb Corner Halloween parade and trick or treating.  The dress up competition was split by ages, so everyone got to parade and show off their suit.



The bull dog was wearing a shark - "Bull Shark" unfortunately the pic did not catch it,

Our African Rhino
Back home:

K.O.
While Mateo slept, Jaime was dancing up a storm:



The crew


After a 3 hour nap, we met up for some pizza

 
Little sneak stole a piece...No food is off limits to Mateo.
