Time Out for Women ended up being pretty inspiring, in spite of Michael Maclean. The best part: hanging out with my girls!
This is the face that greeted me from the window upon returning from girls weekend. Someone was excited to see his mom! It kind of feels good to be loved.
Sam + our horrible white kitchen tile floor just managed to destroy a plate! This boy is out of control.
Ellis finally found something worth spending his allowance on.
Building my super mom skills with five kids at school pick-up today. Mostly, I'm practicing how I handle the "compliments" I get from people when they see I have five kids!
Iverson family rule #3 (created before we were married): All decisions about houses should be made in the fall.
Ben's big job market presentation (new suit!)
Presentation went well! We celebrated by enjoying a perfect fall evening at Wayside Inn in Sudbury.
Got to sleep in until 8:00. Sam is still sleeping, and Henry and Ellis independently built a fort out of blankets while Ben and I snoozed. We have arrived.
My favorite thing about my boys is that they haven't yet discovered possession when it comes to Halloween candy. Everything goes in the pantry buckets for the whole family to enjoy!
Just what we needed: another diversion to help Henry forget to eat lunch. Thanks for the Rubick's Cube, Ben!
Should we be nervous?
When Henry found out that school was cancelled (and Ellis' Joy School was cancelled) due to the hurricane, he said "Yes! Ellis! That means we can play together!" I'm so glad they are finally having many happy moments playing together. And I'm really glad Ellis can play War with Henry so I don't have to. :)
No hurricane can stop a 5-year tradition of making Halloween donuts with Eliza! We made pumpkin spice and regular. Yum!
Looks like we'll be taking the obstacle course home today. #doublestroller #hurricanedamage
One way to get free parking downtown: have your car break down and get it towed away instead! #happyhalloween
Ben's on his way home with the tow truck. Thankfully, we got a ride home with Rachel and Jamie. Now I'm locked out of the house, so we're trick-or-treating the night away!

First - Ellis spent his allowance on purchasing merchandise from a political campaign? Why is that kid the most interesting, fabulous child ever?
Second - you are really pretty. You just don't ever stop getting prettier.
Just to be clear.. I LOVE the IVERSON FAMILY! Good luck with the upcoming Job search ie: I hope you get a job in Utah...I mean really, would Sudbury or Virginia be all that great?
I love the Wayside Inn! (I lived in Sudbury from '91-'93. Middle school. Good tomes.) Anyway, thanks for all of the pretty fall pictures. I love Texas, except in October when I get homesick for trees.
