a beautiful autumn day

Sunday, November 6th, 2011

We visited Stone Barns farm in Pocantico Hills, NY this afternoon.

Puppet show

Kids enjoyed looking at the farm animals, walking on the beautiful scenic trails for over an hour, and getting treats at the Blue Hill Cafe.

trick or treating in the dark

Monday, October 31st, 2011

Most of our neighbors are still without power. It was completely dark when we went trick or treating. We had to drive around blocked roads, downed wires and fallen trees and when we finally got to our favorite block, it felt like a real ghost town. People had abandoned their homes, leaving their freakish decorations in the yards…

We ended up coming home empty handed so we  just went to our next door neighbor and luckily kids scored a handful of candies.

I brought Chloe to work with me this morning and as you can see, we got a lot of work done! 😉

Kids school was closed today due to power outrage and by 8 am., they were already running around in circles. So I figured it would be easier for my parents just watch Shane alone at home while I take Chloe to work.

Chloe did so great at work! She did about 5 booklets of Kumon and was so quiet and calm that no one could tell she was there.

A few of my coworks came by to say hi and gave her candy.

We shared my lunch then I drove her home at 1pm.

We spent the afternoon in Hoboken with our friends visiting from out of town.

snow on halloween weekend

Sunday, October 30th, 2011

We had planned on going to Sesame place today but because of unexpected snow storm, we had to cancel our trip.

A few branches including our backyard tree fell on our deck, destroying our patio glass table…

When Chloe saw that our tree was broken, she cried… Oh my sweet Chloe.
