Finally an update

It's been a long time since I wrote on this blog and a lot has happened! I'm not sure if I will get everything in the right order, but here goes. We had a Hurricane and lost power for a few days, felt an earthquake while down at the Jersey Shore, the kids pony got really sick and we thought we were going to have to put him down (thankfully he recovered completely!) and we had a freak snow storm just before Halloween that once again knocked out the power for a few days.

Speaking of Halloween,


we usually go trick or treating at the local shopping center, which we did the Friday before Halloween. Then we had planned to go to a "trunk or treat" at a local park on Saturday and another one on Sunday at a nearby church. But then the snow started falling Saturday morning and never stopped until much later that night. So we lost power and missed out on trunk or treat but by Monday (the actual Halloween) I had no plans what to do with the kids. I saw that our mall was doing trick or treating that night but in the past it wasn't very good there, so I asked my brother about where they go and we decided to join them. Tyler was very happy to be going to "real houses" since we have never done that!! They had a great time with their cousins, even if it was cold and there was snow on the ground! Oh and I saw a bear run though a couple backyards too!!
