We met up with Savannah and family for the easiest trick or treating on earth, walking the hallways of their 100 unit building. We took the elevator up and started at the top.

This was my great-great-uncle Harry’s medal from the State of New Hampshire for his service in the first World War.

The other weekend Aunt Mindy came down to visit and got a quick tour of Noah’s school.

A quick stop at Lulu’s for a couple animals.

Kate and I had a “wig and wine” party to go to for Andy’s 40th Birthday that night. Noah in Kate’s wig.

A bunch of hours later, after the party, and a little after Noah’s bedtime…

…the Red Sox game was still on, Nate was over, and Noah was hopped up on pudding that Nate put chocolate chips in.

Pretty cool. You color them, then put them in the oven and they shrink to 1/4 their original size.
