1. Halloween
Ethan had a great time this Halloween. At his school, they all made firefighter costumes and had a little Halloween parade.
In the evening, we went trick-or-treating. Ethan dressed up as a pirate. He went to many more houses than last year and seemed to really enjoy it. He particularly loved his costume, which was a gift from Aunt Marcy.
Also, Jason and he had a fun time carving a jack-o-lantern from the pumpkin we picked a few weeks back.
2.Chicago
Ethan and I headed to Chicago last weekend. It was a last-minute trip, as tickets went on sale and it has been awhile since we've seen gramma and grampa Ferschl.
We had a nice visit, and luckily the weather was not too cold yet. We enjoyed seeing the fall colors and checking out some huge pumpkins at the Chicago Botanic Gardens. We also celebrated my mom's 67th birthday.
3.House hunting
We have been looking for a home to buy for a little over a year now, and I think we might have found the house. We are in contract on a place near where we are living now, in Kentfield, CA. Our inspections are today and tomorrow, so we are hoping all is well. If so, we close just in time for Christmas. But we wont move until February, as the current owner wants to rent it back until then. Fingers crossed!
Congrats on the house! Ethan looks so great in his costume!!
ReplyDeleteSuper news all around! Guess we are related...we're hoping to close on a house soon, too! I'm hoping to post some pictures soon. Looks like a find you found! So scary and exciting at the same time, huh? I'll be thinking of you all!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the house. That is exciting. And that is a great pic of Grandpa and Ethan.
