Frankenstorm largely bypassed DC, in comparison to parts of New York and New Jersey and elsewhere on the East Coast, at any rate. We are keeping the families hardest hit by the storm in our prayers. We had four days without power and it was cold and inconvenient, but we are all safe and the house and cars did not sustain any major damage.
We did not let Frankenstorm ruin our Halloween fun!
On Sunday, before the storm hit, Nicholas and mommy went to the neighborhood Halloween parade, led by students from the marching band at the local high school, all in costume as well.
Nicholas liked his Thomas costume until he saw the other kids and decided that a Superhero would be a better fit--hence the Thomas-turned-cape
the band performed part of its half time show
and the kids got to play in the leaves
Nicholas loved getting to see the instruments.... he already wants to play tuba like his daddy
Happy Halloween from the Machak Family!
our little pumpkin
we decorated the front porch
we managed to carve three of the four planned jack-o-lanterns
We can't believe it's November already!!!! We are really enjoying feeling somewhat settled and able to enjoy the fall festivities. After the storm, the weather went from 75/80 degrees to COLD. It's starting to actually feel like Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner.
