So, here we are at breakfast, eating pumpkin pancakes and talking about what we would like to do today. Olivia suggests going for a walk and Jack says, " yea, let's go for a walk 'cause that's eight kinds of fun!"
Well, it's agreed, a walk it is.... who could pass up eight kinds of fun!!!

Trick or Treat
Getting all made up! Olivia just had to be a fairy again this year because she LOVES wearing make up!
Lexi, not so sure about the black face paint or Mama's kisses!
I think Mom had more fun than the kids.....
Lilly the Flower-Power Fairy
A Kitty that needs a home and a very stylish Tiger!
Aunt Mal and Will here for the fun! (or maybe just the candy:)
So glad Aunt Katie was here to help with the costumes and make Monster Cupcakes with the kids! So fun!!! We love you, Aunt Katie.
Best Friends, Livi and Gracie.
Look at all my candy! Yummm!
Hmmm, which piece do I eat first?!
Happy Halloween!

We were on a family bike ride the other night, enjoying the beautiful weather we've been having. Sean was in the lead with Jack following close behind.
Daddy: "Jack, watch out for the big bump." Jack rides over the big bump and exclaims, "Uh! That was unkindness.... to my butt!"
Backyard Camping and Croquet
Setting up camp.
Daddy showing Jack the basics of fire starting..... (notice the bag of charcoal!)
Measuring out the croquet course.
A thunderstorm came upon us around 10:00pm. Complete with lightning, strong winds and heavy rain. The kids woke up briefly and then went right back to sleep. By 1am Mom and Dad were ready for our own bed! We were very glad it was just a few steps away!

The girls are playing school and it is Bible time. Alexis is the teacher and says, "repeat after me, God created the heaven's and the earth. John Piper 117:17"
I guess she thinks very highly of her Pastor!

Como Zoo
We had a great day at the Como Zoo today!
We were able to see the primates during their Enrichment Program.
They were very active and did some funny things.
The zoo also has a Butterfly Exhibit this year that is really neat.
It is a large tent with a butterfly garden inside.
You walk in and there are hundreds of butterflies everywhere!
Several of them landed on the kids..... they LOVED it!
Orangutan

Alexis with a Blue Morpho. It really liked her shirt.

We Need Your Help!
Dear Friends,
We will be participating in a unique fundraising campaign called the LCA Classic - "Driving to the Goal" for Liberty Classical Academy on Saturday, May 2, 2009. We are writing to ask you to join our team of sponsors. Here are the details:
Liberty Classical Academy is an independent, non-denominational, faith-based private school offering college-preparatory academics in the classical tradition for students in preschool and kindergarten through the 12th grade.
The LCA Classic is a fundraising golf event. All funds raised will be used for need-based tuition assistance and teacher salary enhancement.
Providing a classical, Christian education, Liberty is making a difference in the lives of its students. Your generous support of our tuition assistance program allows us to make a Liberty education possible for our family. We feel very blessed to be part of this community. Our children are receiving an excellent education and are also being challenged to grow spiritually and socially.
The goal of our fundraising campaign this year is to raise $100,000. We believe with your support we can achieve this goal. In addition to providing tuition assistance, the money we raise will be used to continue our program of salary enhancement to attract and retain excellent teachers.
As participants, we are one of several families who have committed to raise funds towards this goal. We feel personally challenged to trust the Lord to raise a minimum of $1,800. It is our hope and prayer that you will join our team of sponsors. Support of any amount is welcome and greatly appreciated.
To join our support team, please send us an email to sconeil@comcast.net with your contact information (address, email address, & phone) and donation amount, and we will complete the process for you. You will receive a letter following the event with instructions on where to send your donation.
Your gift is fully tax deductible, and you will receive the satisfaction of knowing you are investing in the lives and minds of young people who will make a difference in the future of our community, our nation and our world.
Thank you for your support,
Sean & Charis Olivia, Alexis & Jack O'Neil
