October

I 100% trust Adriana to get in and out of a tree safely ... but then the rest of the soccer team wanted to try and ... that is not approved.

Family Acro was fun -- well, it was for these kids and Jas, but Quinn was too little and she was NOT happy about going to Kids Academy alone. They had to come get me becuase she wouldn't stop crying. Poor snuggle bug just wants to be a big kid.

We're famous! 

All about Talie! She has 5 people in her family, she has a new cousin named Sage, her Nana is a carpenter, and she was on the swim team this summer.

Soaking up some Vitamin D before the bus arrives

I helped in Talie's classroom for pumpkin patch day

I hope these kids remember dress-up at the Moens house forever.

4th and K. STOP GROWING.

Devin's Dash was much more somber (and a LOT colder) this year without Super D there. I still love this village.

I pocket-called Matt 14 times from my bra. He woke up and thought something horrible had happened. When I called again and he picked up, he could just hear me breathing heavily and heckling Brad to go faster. BAH HA HA HA.

I love my blue house

Red Sox Day

Q LOVES her music class with Miss Vivianna

I have the exact same picture of E when she was this age.

This made it into the local newspaper. I decided to sprint the last tenth of a mile and leave Brad in the dust. HA! What a fun race. #IbeatBrad

24 hours of bonding! Go!

Now that I don't see an OB every several weeks/years, it is time to get caught up on all my boring medical things that have gone by the wayside. Clean bill of health from the dermatologist, clean colonoscopy (HOLY HELL THAT WAS NOT FUN), and I don't need a mammogram for another 2 years. Make your appointments and do your monthly breast exams, ladies (and gentlemen).

TEN YEARS OF HALLOWEEN

Halloween

Version One of The Greatest Showman Halloween: The Bearded Lady, Ann the trapeze artist, and ... Cinner-enneh-neh

MassBallet fun

Version Two: E decided she didn't want to wear a dress so she went to the party as a zombie ... something? Talie was cold so she took E's dress.

Originally, T wanted to be a sneaker so I ordered that costume -- and it came as a pair so it didn't go to waste!

It was a beautiful night and we went to our friends' neighborhood -- these two gave out more than a hundred full-sized candy bars.

Version Three: Sneakers, a disco dance champion, Anne in a warmer dress, and Anna wearing Elsa boots.

Jupiter

We had a GREAT extended weekend in Jupiter. We found this ridiculous house that was way too big for all of us but man oh man it was fun to have everyone all together in an MTB Beach House. Ha!

These girls spent most of every day in the pool.

HA!

I have a million memories of Babsie letting me use her camera. Now she's training a new generation of photographers.

When we needed a break from the sun, we hit up the little aquarium/planetarium. Quinn did NOT like the planetarium.

Uncle Thomas is in the POOOOOOOL!

Vacation is tiring.

They have matching jammies. Oh to be newlyweds. Nerds.

Babsie is a librarian and eats up the reading time with our girls.

Too much wine ...

Quinn did not want to be in the picture.

Yes please.

Great Grammie was thrilled to just listen to the chaos in the pool. So many loud little girls.

Fancy dinner at 50Ocean. Our compliments to the chef.

They're almost as good at vacation as I am!

Talie didn't want to leave the party but also couldn't stay awake.

Q loooooves Great Donny. She followed him around like a little shadow.

AUNTIE YAWN!

Happy 49th Anniversary, Babsie and Don!
