Halloween in DC

With Aunt Stacey in town and our little Thomas the Train, great fun was had by all. Cousins Sophia and Kate led the way with their step-brother Elias joining in as an Angry Bird. Adi figured out quickly all he had to do was walk up to the door and would get tons of chocolate.

Mom's Oct Visit to DC

A great visit with plenty of playtime and a Balkan BBQ with neighborhood friends.

Pumpkin Carving

What more fun than pulling gooey stuff out from the inside of a pumpkin. Hope this one will last till Halloween but seems to already be smelling funny. Just wait to see what Adi will dress as this year (hint: it is not a pumpkin).

Around the House

Well just to reveal a couple of photos showing what has been going on around the Kirkbride household. A new haircut, Shqipe coming over to babysit, Adrian using his first computer and of course corn night with Alex and Sam.

Pumpkin Picking 2011


What better way to spend one of our last 80F days but in the country with our close friends the Schads. Adi likes to run around with Alex and Sam anywhere which included a very large slide, hay bails and an animal farm. Of course we took a tractor out to the fields to pick our own pumpkin.







People arrived via all modes of transportation. And we stopped for a nice lunch too.





Tunnels and slides!





And what is a farm without a train ride?




Boys will be boys.
