I don't need to nap!

Matthew thinks he no longer needs a nap. Here are a few places he has fallen asleep in the past few weeks.

Oops - Camera flash woke him up - and he was not happy!

Happy Halloween!

The Fritel Kids

Matthew the cow

Grace the Sunflower

Andrew as Bucky Badger

The trick-or-treaters

Yes, he really did walk around our neighborhood as Subman

Grace was unhappy with her sunflower so she did a costume change

The Fritel family in our Halloween best

Bucky Badger strikes again! (notice the paw prints on their foreheads)

Bean bag toss at the Halloween party

Matthew found an easier way to win

Getting balloon animals from Bubbles the clown

Andrew got a cat and Matthew got a sword

All tired out!

Dairy Queen

Grace was very excited about her ice cream treat at Dairy Queen today. Matthew was very nice to share his with her also.

Monkeys

Grace learned a new trick - climbing up on the table. So Matthew decided to join her

Andrew feeding Grace chocolate chips

He might actually be part monkey

Grace eating like a big girl - and she was very proud of herself

Visitors & Other things

Isaac meeting Annika. He does not look impressed that she is his space

This is what was at our house last weekend - plus 4 more adults. Yikes!

UND vs. Wisconsin Hockey Game. Cheerleaders from opposing sides . They look pretty fired up don't they? It's almost like they don't care who wins.
