Halloween!

How can you make a Jack-o-lantern stop smoking?

Make him wear a pumpkin patch!

We took a trip to Red Lodge to visit the Nature Center (Lynx, Lamas and Bears, oh my!). It was fun, not exactly the Cincinnati Zoo, but it was fun. The animals are mainly wild critters that were injured or sick. We got to see a bear making its hibernation den. The wolves, foxes, and a bobcat were all pretty active and running around. Afterwards we had lunch and drove up the road to Hell Roaring Plateau. We stopped about half-way up and played in the clouds.

Timber sprites.

Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads!

Back to the stream

A breathtaking view, even when the visibility is low.

Say: "DADDY DON"T THROW ME IN THE WATER!"

Now a montage of Halloween-time photos: The girls had a short program at their Preschool along with Trunk-or-Treating and pumpkin decorating. Then Saturday they went to a local Assisted Living facility with the Mom's of Multiples group to do reciprocating treating. The girls handed out Krista's homemade Oatmeal/Cranberry cookies and got some candy and smiles in return. 

Zoie's pumpkin with beady eyes and a big smile.

Madison has chosen the big eyes and Mona Lisa-esque smile.

Audrey went all out on hers.
