Day 304 - Monday, October 31, 2011 – Jordyn and her girlfriends all decided to go trick-or-treating as pop stars for Halloween this year. Here they are on Megan's porch. From left: Megan Kerin as Katy Perry, Taylor Jenkins as Ke$ha, Shelby Gulda as Taylor Swift, Jordyn as Lady Ga Ga, and Alicia Kuligowsi as Nikki Minaj. They all looked great! Such a good group of girls.

Day 301 - Friday, October 28, 2011
Day 301 - Friday, October 28, 2011 – During parent/teacher conferences tonight, we went next door to Owen's classroom to his Chinese teacher's room, Ms. Liu. He was in there writing on her white board. When we came in the room, Ms. Liu spoke to Owen in Chinese, asking him questions like, "Who is this?" And he responded in Chinese, "This is my mom. This is my dad...." etc. She asked him a number of questions, and he was able to communicate with her. I was impressed, and Jordyn started to tear up because she was so touched by his ability to speak another language. It was just a super cool moment for all of us.
Day 300 - Thursday, October 27, 2011
Day 300 - Thursday, October 27, 2011 – By far one of the kids' favorite Halloween activities...Ghosting! This year proved to be as much fun as in years past. Owen decided he wanted to run up to his friend's door by himself. Meanwhile Jordyn, Liam, and I couldn't stop laughing as we watched Owen drop things and stumble and then giggle uncontrollably as he ran all the way back to the car. It was a riot. Targets this year: the Kerins, the Snables, and the Prusas.

Day 294 - Friday, October 21, 2011 – THREE dozen gorgeous red roses. Kevin outdid himself with this one. And then I whisked him away to a surprise get away at the Park Royal Hotel in downtown Rochester. We had a fabulous kid-free evening. Eleven years, seems like we've been married forever and since yesterday all at the same time.
Day 293 - Thursday, October 20, 2011
Day 293 - Thursday, October 20, 2011 – Jordyn has certainly put more expression into her choir performances. Taste of Broadway was a phenomenal production by the Oxford High School choirs. The energy was amazing especially when all 200 choir members took the stage to enthusiastically recite their creed: "I am an Oxford High School Singer. I will dedicate myself to advancing my choir to be the best it can be. I will fully engage mentally, physically and artistically in every rehearsal and performance. I choose to demonstrate positive moral character, thinking of others more than myself. To me every day matters in building a better choir. I will do all I can to make each rehearsal and performance better than the last. I am a member of a world class choir. I am an Oxford High School Singer." Replace the periods with exclamation points, and you get the idea of how enthusiastic it was.

I wanted to stuff Enrique in my purse and take him home with me. The concert was like a live Zumba class. I loved every second of it!
