Raking with Daddy

Tonight Eóin went out to help daddy get rid of some of the leaves in our yard. I tried to get some pics but didn't really get a good one. Still..here are some of the ones I did get. He had a great time. He loved when Jonathan made big piles out of leaves. His exact words were "wow...tow" (tow is a tower in Eóin's language). He even came inside and told me all about it :-)

Putting the leaves in his little bag.

He brought his bag down to where Jonathan was raking.

So much fun 

SCCF Fall Party

Saturday afternoon was the annual fall party at Jonathan's work. We went to one of his co-workers homes - they have horses and a few other little animals. it was so much fun - we had a pumpkin carving competition, hayride, horse rides, and a bonfire :-) Here are some pics and videos of the day.



How to make a bonfire - Step 1 - douse with gas


Step 2 - light the gas :-)



Eóin did NOT like the boom!

Getting ready for bed

So last night when we got home from church, Jonathan and Eóin were getting ready for bed. Not quite the winding down game you would expect - they are crazy guys!!!!

Pumpkin Carving

Tonight we had a fun night doing our mostly-annual pumpkin carving. This year our new friend Oluseun joined us and it was his first time carving a pumpkin :-) Everyone's turned out pretty great except for poor Eric who bit off a little more than he could chew (but he says it's the tools fault). Here are some pics of the evening.

ABC's

Eóin and I were just being goofy on the computer this morning and I got him saying some of the alphabet. We never usually make it past P 'cuz he always gets bored :-) He doesn't always get them right but he gives it a good shot at least.
