The Wiggles in Concert

I took Sarah and Abby to the Rogers Centre in Toronto to see the Wiggles performing live. The kids had a blast - although after the first hour of non-stop dancing, they were getting pretty pooped. They were very good, and didn't try to run off at any point. Phew - since Leah stayed home with Jessica, it wouldn't have looked good if I came home short a kid. hehehe It ended up that Greg (the Yellow-shirt Wiggle) was sick, so he had a replacement. Didn't seem to phase any of the kids at all. One of the dads behind me joked that if one of the 4 Wiggles wasn't there, we should all get a 25% discount. :-)

(Late) Halloween pictures

Sorry these are late! I'm just plain lazy. :-) Halloween was great. The kids were super excited. We met up with a few neighbours and all hit the streets together. It was pretty cold that night, so we were only out for about an hour. Sarah and Abby were great, and got lots of candy (too much!). Jessie and Mom stayed home and handed out candy. We had about 25-30 kids show up. Not a lot, but more than last year! Here are some pics and video!!

Our new lawn decoration. It was a hit!


Pumpkins!

The Dragon and the Butterfly Princess


I really didn't get any good pictures of the Princess costume at Halloween, so this is one from when she got the dress a whie ago. :-)
