We took in a huge haul this year–3 kids!  Kelly & Rob took the kids around the neighborhood, here are their costumes . . .

Fun Day

I had a busy morning, watched Ben & Lauren this morning and Jody came over with Abby & Elizabeth.  We headed outside after lunch and it was beautiful!  Here’s some of our fun . . .

Pumpkin Party

We had our 2nd annual pumpkin party last night.  We had a bunch of neighbors over for pumpkin carving, pumpkin t-shirts, pumpkin soup & pumpkin cookies:)  We had a lot of fun!

The invite (of course I’m rather proud of this)

Tropicana Field

Posted 1 year, 10 months ago at 8:28 pm.

In honor of the World Series (and because I haven’t taken any pictures in the last 2 days), here’s a picture of Mari, Kelly & I at Tropicana Field in Tampa Bay in April of 2004 (Mari was 2 years old).  Trisha-Tampa Bay is in the World Series:)

It’s really a very boring, kind of ugly stadium.  It was a beautiful night and we didn’t have any plans on our first night of our vacation so we thought it would be fun to see a baseball game, we didn’t realize until we got there that it was indoors!  Couldn’t tell you who won, we stayed for about 5 innings and checked another stadium off our list.  Believe it or not, Mari has currently visited 4 stadiums (Cleveland’s Jacobs Field, Cincinatti’s Great America BallPark, Detroit’s Comerica Park, & Tampa Bay’s Tropicana Field).  Kelly’s only been to 1 more (Seattle’s Safeco Field–on our honeymoon).  I’ve been to those and Yankee Stadium & Shea Stadium.

I've made the big time

The funniest thing happened today, I was reviewing my comments and I had 2 comments from people at the Fast Growing Trees company (www.fast-growing-trees.com), wanting to know if they can use my experience as a review on their webpage.  So, if you go to their site and go to the Empress Tree, you’ll find my blog review and it gives a link to my blog!

And, that’s not all, there was a another comment about Mari’s legwarmer page.  I didn’t recognize the e-mail address but thought it was someone from MOP’s, turns out their URL is to some on-line store selling club/rave apparel-I guess legwarmers are the latest, nothing that I would buy but still pretty funny:)
