Dogs and Halloween

Yes, I realize I'm more than a few days late on posting these. Rommel and Luci were gracious enough (kind of) to allow me to get pics of them in their horns for Halloween. They did not go trick or treating with us this year. They were happy to stay home and Not have their doorbell rung 100 times.


Rommel did pretty good with his...not thrilled but willing to cooperate.












Luci's initial protest to the entire experience...she would not get up!










After promises of a 'greenie' she finally agreed.

Harper Birthday Party

We had a Birthday party for two of the Harper boys (our neighbors) this weekend. Jeffrey turned 9 and Brady turned 1.







Irina helping to wrap Tony up like a mummy.











Robert demonstrating how to play the next game..












She worked really hard and ran soooo fast! She was so proud of herself..and we were too!












She's supposed to be blindfolded. Needless to say, she was cheating...you can see her eyes peeking over the blindfold!









Robert and our friend, Gonzo, dressed up as themselves scaring the kids....










Daddy/Frankenstein and Irina












Irina and some of the kids checking out the items used for monster lab.








Irina running around very excited!

Cleaning Pumpkins

Robert decided to carve a pumpkin lat night since he's not sure how early he'll be home tonight before we head out trick or treating.
Irina's little friend, Diego, was over so they both helped.





Diego and Irina cleaning out the pumpkin








She loves it!










Working together as a team...












She loves helping Daddy....

Luci and the Horse

So this is what happens when Daddy comes home "early" (7pm) from work. Poor Luci was the 'victim' of Robert's humor for the evening. She was less than thrilled.

Dogs=Humans??

This is what I found yesterday morning when I came back downstairs. Now, everyone who knows us knows our dogs are our kids. Rommel is the first born (the one curled up on the seat of the chair) and Luci is the baby.
But still, they know they aren't supposed to be on furniture. Neither of them even budged when they saw me!







And of course, Irina had to run up for a picture with them. She thought it was SO funny that they were on the chair.

Pumpkin Hunt and Costume Party

Sunday night we were invited to a Pumpkin Hunt and Costume Party. Irina had a great time!
We may have to 'steal' this idea and do it next year.

Irina, the cheerleader, ready to go!
