Halloween Party

Last night Stu and I went to a Halloween party at the Sorrentino's house. We went as players from the game show Double Dare which we both watched when we were younger. We won the prize for best couple's costume!

The party was a lot of fun. I loved seeing all of the costumes that people came up with.

Fright Fest

Yesterday we went to Great Adventure for Fright Fest. Brandon and Wesley went trick or treating to some of the characters, we went on a few rides, and went to two shows.
Brandon was chosen to be in the first show which was a magic show. He got to help with a lot of the tricks. He loved being in the show.
At the end of the second show, an animal show, Brandon and Wesley got to pet the lizard which was in the show.

Ocean High School Game

Brandon and some of the players from his soccer team went to watch the boys high school soccer team play in the Shore Conference Finals this past Thursday.

Deal Trick or Trot

Last weekend Stu and Wesley ran in the Deal Trick or Trot. Wesley ran in the kid races and Stu ran the 5k.

Pumpkin and Apple Picking

Last weekend we went pumpkin and apple picking. All of the grandparents joined us. The weather was beautiful outside but unfortunately there were a lot of bees. Other than the bees we had a great time. We picked a lot of apples and found a pumpkin.

Goodye Trailblazer

The time finally came to say goodbye to Stu's trailblazer which he had for 16 years. We have a new car now that we are enjoying!

Red Bulls Soccer Game

We went to the Red Bulls soccer game on October 15th. Jaden, a kid who was on Brandon's travel soccer team last year, has connections with someone who works for the Red Bulls. They had set up an experience for Jaden and some other players from last year's team to escort the players onto the field before the game began.
Brandon got to go into their locker a few hours before the game began to get ready and hang out. The kids then waited in the tunnel that the players walk through. They then held hands with the players and walked them onto the field. They stayed on the field for the Star Spangled Banner.
Our seats for the game were great and we had access to the Audi Lounge which had really good food and dessert.
The game ended in a tie.

Celebration

Debbie, Rich, Ben, Zack, and Zack's girlfriend, Kenzie, came to visit a few weeks ago. It was our first time meeting Kenzie! We had a great time with her and everyone else.

Zack and Kenzie came to watch Wesley's soccer game.
After the soccer game they came back to our house for lunch and to hang out for the afternoon.
We then went back to Stu's parents house for dinner. Everyone else arrived in time for dinner. We finished dinner with a cake to celebrate Grandma Gail being finished with her chemo treatments.

Wesley's Soccer Season

Wesley's team had their last game yesterday. They got their trophies after the game. He played really well this year. He really understands soccer now and how to play. These pictures are from several games throughout the season.

Freehold Fright Fest Tournament

Brandon's team played in the Fright Fest Tournament the weekend after the Wall tournament. They dressed as life guards in the tournament. They lost both of their games but the first game they played the best they have played.
