Grandma Lamparella and Grandpa Alex came for a visit and we had a busy Halloween. I was a chaperone for Luke's kindergarten class field trip and we all went to Adairsville Pumpkin Patch. We had 3 kids in our group, Luke, Madison and Christen. The Pumpkin Patch had plenty of activities for the kids, they played a hula hoop toss, rode play horses, went thru a hay maze, pet animals and went on a hayride. Later that night we dressed as the superhero family, Luke was Batman, Matthew was Robin, I was Batgirl and Mark was Indiana Jones. We went trick or treating in our neighborhood and it was freezing that night. Grandma and Alex held down the fort and handed out candy. The kids didn't mind the cold weather, especially Matthew, he loved getting a new piece of candy at each house. Needless to say, Matthew did not end up with alot of candy in his bag because he chose to eat the candy as he received it, if he received a new lollipop he would replace the 10 minute old one. Saturday the boys and I split up. I went to Florida for Lisa's wedding and the boys spent time with Grandma and Daddy. Luke was sick Saturday morning so he didn't make it to his soccer game. The boys went to a neighbors 3rd birthday party in the park while grandma did her hair. Sunday they all went to church and Grandma made a nice dinner for everyone. My trip to Miami was fun despite my cold. Lisa and Gigi looked pretty in the Miami Botanical Japanese Gardens and I got to spend some time with old friends from high school. The reception was at a restaurant on South Beach so I got a dinner and dancing without paying for a sitter, BONUS. I also saw my Janice's place on the beach (which is right where they filmed "Something About Mary") and had a nice lunch with my friend from college Elisa. It was a quick but enjoyable visit.
