Blog 411

This blog was created for our friends and family who don't get to see us -- well, Jonathan and Elise, really -- as often as they'd like. I'm trying to keep you all updated on their milestones and their day-to-day activities. I also hope this will serve as sort of a journal for them as well, something for them to read when they are older that chronologues their lives and adventures. When I can, I'll post pictures and maybe even videos to help bridge the distance.

This blog is Part 2 of the Life of the Hardwicks. This edition will focus on our new lives in Atlanta, GA, that began in July 2013.

2014_10_31 Friday

Cat-erina
From Elise's teacher: Good afternoon and Happy Halloween! Wow what a fun-filled day we had! We had a free play and calendar time in the morning. Then we talked about our costumes and took some awesome pictures! We made a sign for the parade! We then decorated our pumpkins. And we made a ghost treat to take home. We also made a balloon ghost. Hopefully it makes it home! We listened to which witch is which? and 12 days of Halloween. I read Halloween Hoots and Howls and The Best Halloween Hunt Ever.  We enjoyed some time outside. Then we had our parade! :)
It was great seeing everyone!! Thanks to all who helped out!! Show and tell is next Wednesday- bring in a cool rock or fossil to share!  

 What fun we had roaming around our neighborhood with 40 of our closest friends. The street behind us gets blocked off, and families are everywhere.  Dave was a 70s funky guy; Elise was Cat-erina with a tail, paws, and ears; Jonathan was a soldier/military dude; and I was Cersie Lanister (from Game of Thrones). On Saturday, the kids divided up their candy for themselves and to give away. whew. My belly can't take it anymore!

 Dave had two work buddies from Vietnam over for dinner earlier this week, and they all carved up pumpkins (such an American tradition!). They were pretty funny to watch as they used spoons to dig out the guts and carve fancy designs with special tools.
