Halloween Island Style

Everyone had a great time on Halloween night; the weather was a balmy 82 degrees with 100% humidity. The neighborhood was filled with children all night. We all went trick-or-treating with our friends in the neighborhood. Jean finished the night off with Snoopy and the Giant Pumpkin (a perennial favorite); Scott took Nate and Drew to the haunted house, but only came back with Nate. That's right, Andrew bailed out after "Jason" chased him with a chainsaw. Drew and his buddy Christian were all talk until they got to the haunted house and heard the music. All in all a great night for everyone and an added bonus, NO SNOW on Halloween.

Andrew is 9!!

Our baby is no longer a baby and has just turned 9. He had a few of his friends spend the night and they played the Wii into the wee hours of the night. Jean and I are finding it hard to accept how quickly the boys are growing up. We had a bundt cake for Drew's party and he picked out a new golf club for his present. Andrew was very happy with all of the gifts and cash he received in the mail, thank you to everyone. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG GUY!
