Rockstar Workout

As you can see from the previous post, we went down to South Florida to celebrate Thanksgiving with the family. It was so nice to get away for a few days and take a break from all the unpacking that has been going on over here. We had a great time, as usual....everything was wonderful...great food, great people...how could you go wrong?!?! We even managed to fit in a few skype chats with our family in NY, that is always fun! In the morning, I went to the park with Aunt Laura and Uncle John to attempt to un-do some of the damage!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Thanksgiving from sunny Florida!!!

Very "Halloweeny"

Last weekend we went on a mission to find a pumpkin. We didn't feel like taking a ride to one of the "pumpkin patches", so we set out on a journey to find one in town....we were successful at Lowes!

We carved it last Wednesday...


Meet...our pumpkin Jack! I sketched him, and Stephen carved him....it was a team effort!

Of course our Halloween decorations would not be complete without artwork from Jake!

I even roasted up some pumpkin spice - pumpkin seeds....Yummy!!!

AND I made pumpkin bread...

(I made it without the pepitas)

Cowabunga!

I promised a lot of pictures, and I sure did deliver!!! Last night was the long awaited Haunted Hills 5K! It was rough, lot's of hills, and in case anyone was wondering...it's not easy running in a tutu!!! We had a blast, and all ran together (except for the last tenth of a mile). We even won the contest for best group costumes! Woohooooo! Heroes in a half shell - turtle power!!!
We all painted little ninja turtles on our nails....isn't it adorable?!?!

A Visit From The Parentals!

Because I like for there to be some kind of order on here...I am first going to post the pics from when my parents visited before getting to the race photos! It's my fault because I have been lazy with keeping up with both the blog AND facebook! So here are some of my favorites. We had a GREAT time while Mom and Dad Sco were down here! The weather was perfect, we went to Downtown Mount Dora, and Epcot, and ate like kings pretty much every night!
