Our Superheros

Not much time tonight...kiddos were running around for most of the night on a sugar high. As you can see...our two little ones were superheros. Kade loves being Batman and dresses in it at least a few times a week. Payton was a great wonder woman (courtesy of our Detroit connection)...

We made it about 15 houses and then everyone was ready to head home. Not a bad run if you ask me ;-)

The three pictures on the bottom are of Kade, Payton and Kylie making the faces they wanted on their pumpkins.... their SCARY pumpkins.




I just can not pass this one up...sorry

The new A380 is the object of much fanfare lately. Super-jumbo title, full double decker, up to 853 seats (10 wide on lower deck and 8 wide on upper deck), 2 stairways, 50% less noise and a no sex policy to go with that less noise claim ;-)

I guess this makes Jen the majority

ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" took last week's ratings top spot with its Monday edition, outstepping even the World Series' decisive Game 4.
Who would have thunk it!

The Amaizing Pumpkin Patch

As with most of America, last week we took our annual trip to the corn maze and pumpkin patch. It was actually an insanely hot day in the Albunukie sun. Sooooo, about halfway through the maze Daddio took over the map responsibilities and we took the direct route to the pumpkin patch. Enough with wandering around in the sun following the kids. We were lucky enough to catch Kylie posing....ok, maybe it was not so much luck...maybe it was simply having a camera focused on a little 4 year old diva :-)

In the end, as always the kiddos had lots of fun. Kade loved burying himself in the corn box...and Payton loved throwing corn...which we were no so pleased about. Finally, the last pic on the left is of Kade and Kylie making some scary faces...for some reason Kylie's didn't turn out so scary...I dunno...maybe it is just a diva thing. Jen?

Should have known that it was going to STINK

In what might be one of the worst movies I have ever seen...Michael Clayton sets a new standard. This movie makes me want to start a bottom 10 movie list! Jen and I were very excited to have an evening to ourselves and went looking through the Albunukie Journal to see what was playing. We were torn between The Kingdom and Michael Clayton. The Nukie gave Clayton 4 stars...and it looked like a pretty good movie from the trailers....

We pretty much slept through the whole thing. It was way too predictable....you knew the ending before it began. Should have gone to The Kingdom or simply gone out for a nice dinner!

Upon reflection I should have known that it was going to stink. Thinking back to what George Clooney has done recently...I would be hard pressed to find a good movie. About the best one in his past is likely Oceans 11....not exactly Earth shattering.

PASS

Oy

Jen and I were rooting against each other...in the end even she was disappointed.
