Trick-or-Treat...

Here is Hayden on his way out to trick-or-treat! Yes, I know it is Oct. 30th, but things work a little different in Central PA! The individual townships set the date and time for trick-or-treating. So ours was tonight from 6-8. I think they do it for safety reasons and it is somewhat nice because you don't have anyone at your door after 8.

If you can't tell, Hayden is wearing a Robin costume from the older Batman movie, Batman Forever. He had to have that specific one, which was not easy to find. Yeah for Ebay!

Hope the rest of you enjoy your treat nights!

Hayden's pumpkin

So when I asked Hayden what kind of pumpkin he wanted me to carve, this is what he chose!

He is still very much in to this political stuff and is very proud to show it.

He went with me to the McCain-Palin office near us to pick up our yard sign. While we were there, he was talking it up with guys that are running the place. He even made a campaign sign for them! So when we have trick-or-treat this week, we will proudly show off our political pumpkin!

Fall in Pennsylvania...

This is what you get when you leave two young creative minds to themselves outside on a cool, windy, autumn day in PA.

Hayden and his friend Eliza made a Fall Tree by decorating one of our backyard trees with toys and other stuff from our garage! They were very proud of their creation. The hard part will be getting them to clean it all up!

I am so proud of my future President...

This is what Hayden did in his free time at school yesterday. He is very pro-McCain/Palin. And he seems to have very strong opinions (negative ones) about that other guy. We have had to explain to him that it is okay to have opinions, but you need to express them "nicely". He came home the other day telling me that he was taking a poll at school and somewhat campaigning for McCain!

Who knows, maybe someday we'll be campaigning for Hayden Doyle!

Who would believe it..

That same weekend, Mom and Bob surprised Hayden on Sunday afternoon by showing up. They were at the Tennessee football game on Saturday, then drove up to PA. We knew it was a possibility that they would make it, but we did not tell Hayden just in case plans had to change.

We had just arrived home from church and the doorbell rang shortly after. Now that usually means that Hayden's friend behind us, Eliza, is coming over to play. Imagine his surprise when he opened the door and there were his Nana & Bob! Todd took Bob golfing (big surprise!) and Nana hung out with us. Hayden even got her to play his playstation baseball game with him. I had to get a picture of that because I have never seen her play a video game!

Falling behind....

Okay, so I have definitely fallen behind on our blog, but I am trying!

Two weekends ago I finally grabbed a shot of Hayden at one of his baseball games. He had a walk and a hit so this is a pic of him on 1st base! He loves to play short stop just like his favorite player, Derek Jeter.
