Hallowe'en Night: Trick o Treating in Vancouver

This was the first year we could watch the boys walk up stairs on their own and knock on doors. I waited at the curb for them, which was very strange. They are big boys now.We have a Harry Potter and a Robin (from Batman). Bruno was supposed to be a pumpkin, but decided at the last moment he wanted to wear a black cape and mask.
Harry Potter is pontificating about something....
Happy Hallowe'en friends and family!!
Look at the beautiful leaves...

Bruno's Preschool Hallowe'en Party

Here are Bruno's teachers, Mrs. Eng and Mrs. Campos. Because it is a Catholic preschool, the hallowe'en costumes have to do with animals or insects - no scary ghosts, please!!!Bruno as a tiger, with a bat, a turtle, and another tiger!!!

Bruno, we hope you had a great Hallowe'en Party!!!

A Canadian Tradition: Ice Skating

Here we are, back to ice skating lessons. This is Bruno's first time on skates. His comment is, "I can't stand up!"
