A couple days after Elliot's birthday, Xander left for a 21 day trip to Arizona. He went on a 16 day trip, on the Colorado River, in the Grand Canyon. As you can see from the pictures - he had a great time.
It was a long time for him to be gone and we all missed him dearly, but I am glad he was able to do the trip. Will he go next year, you ask?
I think I may say, "NO!"
Being at home for 3 weeks with 2 boys (one of whom who was in the ER with a concussion while he was gone) was not easy. I say "No!" now, just like I did last year, but Xander still went....so we will see, I guess.
Xander came up with the idea of us dressing up as "Portland Hipsters" for Halloween. It was a great idea.
We found my wig and our outfits at a re-sale shop and bought tattoo sleeves. What do you think? I still laugh every time I see Xander's picture. He fits the "type" pretty well, doesn't he?
The kids costumes were Star Wars related, of course. Elliot had been asking for months for me to sew him a cloak so he can be Anakin Skywalker & Miles wanted to be Darth Vader. I decided to sew 2 cloaks - one for E and one for M.
