Halloween at the Library

Halloween is here and we are busy! We started with a parade at the library with my friend Luke. Then I went and walked in the parade at my cousin Josephs school.

McElwain October Birthday party

Last week we went to visit my Granny and Grandpa in York. October is a busy month with birthdays for Abby, Brody, Granny and Dave.

Curious George Live

Last week, my parents took me to see my favorite monkey, Curious George, live on stage! In the musical George wanted to help his friend the chef win the great meatball contest. George flew to Rome and entered the meatballs and the chef won! I love that monkey!

Field Trip!

Last weekend my school had our first field trip. We went to Shady Brook Farms! We took a hayride out to the pumpkin patch and picked pumpkins, went on the moon bounce, rode bikes and saw the animals.

Tour de Pink

Last weekend we kicked off our new family favorite, pinktober! The weekend started with daddy riding 80 miles for YSC. From there mommy headed off to The Butterfly ball and finally we walked with some of our favorite friends and family in the race for the cure!

First day of preschool!

On Monday, I started preschool. I started off sad that a school bus was not picking me up! I go to school three mornings a week. After my initial scream for my mommy, i was just fine. Lots of my friends are in my class. We had a great time making Rosh Hashana cards and for snack we had apples and honey.

The most exciting part of all is wearing a back pack.

century for the cure

For the second year, my daddy rode 100 miles to put an end to cancer. I got to ride through the finish line with him. I think the more exciting part was the fire truck that we could play on. God daddy! So proud of you.

happy 2nd birthday macie

last weekend, macie had a my little pony party at tehrune orchards, one of my favorite places. We got to ride the tractors, feed the animals and go on a pony ride!

last beach day

last week bubbe and pop pop took Joseph and I down the shore for the final beach day. Even though it was a little windy, we still had a blast! So sad to say good bye to summer.

Northampton, Mass and Boston

A few weeks ago I went with Bubbe, Pop and Mommy to see cousin Rebecca graduate Smith College in Northampton, Mass. While there, I went to the Eric Carle Museum. It had a library where we read books and did puzzles, an art room where I got to paint with Pop and a beautiful gallery of illustrations.

On the way to pick daddy up from the train, we stopped at The Dr. Seuss Memorial Sculpture Garden in Springfield, Mass. They had about 6 gigantic sculptures based on the different Dr. Seuss books.

We also went to Rebecca's graduation and I finally got to meet my Uncle Tom and cousin Jeff. I had so much fun with them both.

From there we went to Boston for a few days. We walked around Newbury Street, Little Italy, Fanueil Hall on the first day. The second day it rained so we went to the New England Aquarium where I got to touch all sorts of slimy ocean dwellers. We had dinner in Copley Square and our last day we stopped in Cambridge so I could get something at the Curious George book store.

It was a great trip. Here are some pics. I will post the link to the whole album.

3.5 birthday party!

We love something to celebrate! The other day was our annual half birthday celebration! Several of Hunters friends came over for a beach party! Sadly, the weather did not cooperate but the kids still had a great time. We have octopus hummus, fruit flowers, sail boat sandwiches, beach cupcakes and sand pudding! It was a great day with great friends!

another beach day!

we have had some amazing weather this summer and that means lots of beach days! last week i had the best beach day with my cousin joseph, bubbe and pop! we had so much fun digging in the sand for hours!

ocm 2010

Last week was our annual Ocean City, Maryland beach trip. I got to spend several days with the McElwain cousins, Aunt Shari, Uncle Erik and Granny and Grandpa. I got lots of beach time in as well as some swimming in the pool, rides on the boardwalk, playground time, mini golf and a trip to Rehoboth. It was so much fun. Thanks Granny and Grandpa!

Birthday party with Aunt Crystal

Today was my annual birthday celebration with Aunt Crystal. We like to celebrate with her in the summer.

It started off with a great morning at the pool and then she made me a delicious lunch filled with yummy snacks my parents do not buy and then a cake! But what party at Aunt Crystals would be complete without presents. I got a new fireman outfit!! Thanks Aunt Crystal. We love you!

decorate your own cupcake!

The other night Mia, Jack and I went to Around the Kitchen Table in Pennington where we decorated our own cupcakes. We got to pick our favorite colors icing and then some fun sprinkles. I also loved eating all the sugar before dinner.

We then went out to dinner where Mia and I had to take several potty trips to check everything out and off to the playground!
