Happy Birthday Popi!

On the weekend of November 12, the family went up to Spring Lake to wish Popi a very happy 70th birthday (his actual birthday is November 14).

Evie is the guest of honor at Popi's toast.

But that didn't last too long as cousins Julianna, Molly and Stan joined her. I think Evie liked being the only one on Popi's lap.

The next day there was time for fun in the backyard as Evie pushed her duck around in her stroller.

Hmmm... who's on that phone (and she shouldn't have that phone next to her head with all that radiation going into her brain!).

Evie and Molly hold hands in the double stroller ride around the lake!

Dad lines up with his three brothers in age order with Uncle Patrick (a guest appearance from Los Angeles) leading the group, followed by Uncle Wally, Dad and Uncle Dave.

Evie goes trick o' treating for the first time...

Evie hit the infamous Lee Street in Old Town for her first trick or treating experience. She mastered saying "Trick or Treat" and "Thank you." but then it became a little harder as she couldn't resist the lure of her lollipop treats for the rest of the evening.

Evie poses next to her friend the witch. She was much more friendly than the witch that when Evie gave her a high five, started screeching. Whoops, didn't see that coming.
Daddy's friend the pirate skeleton peeks over his shoulder to check out Evie's booty. I believe she is on lollipop #2 at this point.

Evie helped design her little pumpkin so that Daddy carved 2 Jack O'Lanterns this year.
