Catching up with The Robinson's

Joe, Jill and baby Luke came over Saturday for dinner and visiting. We met The Robinson's about 4 years ago, shortly after Andrew moved Pulte's home office. Joe had just gotten a job with Pulte and they were moving here from Michigan. At the time we lived in North Aurora and they apartment they moved into was about 5 miles away. We got together quite a bit until we moved, since we were so close to each other. Things have changed a bit in those 4 years, but we still have a great time whenever we get together!

Mommy's little helper

Emma is quite the little assistant these days, especially when it comes to cooking. She really likes helping me make dinner during the day for Daddy. Every time I start to cook she will drag her chair over to the counter and ask what she can do. Then if I'm using onions she will always ask to eat them! She will take down onions like it's nobody's business, too funny!

Halloween 2009

This year Graham and Kristy invited us to their house for trick or treating. We started the morning off with pumpkin carving, most of which Emma wasn't too interested in. She enjoyed drawing on the pumpkin with the magic marker more than anything. After a late nap we finally got to the Brown's around 4:45pm. We did a quick clothing change and then headed out the door. It was nice to be in a neighborhood where all the houses are close together, more candy! Payton and Emma did great asking for treats and making sure they said thank you. They held up for about an hour and a half and then we all went in for pizza. We had a great night!
