Tonight's picture was taken on Halloween of 2003. Mattie was a year and a half old and was beginning to understand that Halloween wasn't like any regular day. Mattie and I picked out his costume, and I knew sticking with a sweat suit material would be perfect for Mattie. As Mattie did not like materials that were itchy or scratchy and he especially did not like things that would confine his head. Unlike me, Mattie did not like candy. Especially chocolate. When he got older, he would go trick or treating but he did it for the social experience NOT for the candy. Typically he would give his candy to others.

Peter had the fortunate opportunity to be invited to the World Series game last night between the Nats and Astros. Unfortunately the Nats lost, but Peter had a great time and is getting to know some of the season ticket holders around where our friend has his seats. From what I understand, Peter's voice was captured on ESPN, because he was screaming that loud. With every Nats batter, Peter would scream, "I believe." I wish I could have found this coverage on the internet.
When we woke up this morning, the weather was horrible. Torrential rain and damp. However, by noon the sun came out and believe it or not, it was 80 degrees in Washington, DC today. It was a glorious day, and we walked Sunny around the National Mall.
The signs of Fall are all around us, especially when you see a sea of fallen leaves.
Sunny loves going to the National Mall, because there are a ton of squirrels who reside there. He was so excited, that we couldn't get him to look at me for a photo.
Meanwhile, we are all sitting outside on our balcony this evening. It is such a glorious day, that I am typing the blog outside and Sunny is catching the breezes. It was the kind of weather day you wish you could bottle, and that everyday could be just like this!
