I didn't know her when she was this young, but I love this photo. She was a terrific Granny.

Halloween Oreos

This deliciously messy gift came from Maggie's godfather, Joe. 

She loved them, and the bath that followed.

Halloween Costumes

Snaggletooth

Pumpkin Carving with Team Mitchell

Our friend Reed, from next door, joined us.

Maggie made scary faces.

She even tried to draw the pumpkin face.

And then we all made crazy faces when the pumpkin was done!

MC Visits New Albany

MC talked herself into a trip to New Albany to visit Becca, Don, Montgomery, and Paul Cooper (who she keeps calling Parker?) over the weekend. Grandaddy and Nana kindly agreed to take her along for an overnight visit. It looks like she had a great time.

John loves Halloween

A moment in time...

However brief, we'll take it!

Scary Face

Hello, Neighbor

The boys have settled upon Hello Neighbor and another, even creepier game called Bendy and the Ink Machine, as this season's obsessions. They have never actually played either of these games because, "they cost money!" But the wonders of YouTube ensure that they know all about both and talk endlessly of the various intricacies and gory details. This afternoon David decided to do his best rendition of the creepy neighbor.

Chef Mary Claire

Rock, rock the baby

Maggie loves rocking her very own Cabbage Patch doll in the rocking chair her mama had at the same age. (It was a gift from her Aunt Mary Joyce and Uncle Vernon.)

We loved having Gram visit!

Paging Dr. Mary Claire

Shoes on my feet!

There's something about Elmo

It's never too early to celebrate!
