Check out the pics of us getting ready for Halloween here and celebrating at our Halloween Party here.

Check out pics taken by the kids here.

We have also begun to really gear up for the election tomorrow.  We had a discussion about the ‘issues’ that both John McCain and Barack Obama stand for.  Now these are tax and education issues but rather favorites of the two candidates to help the children make the most ‘informed’ choice possible for president  : )  Here are our issues we are considering:

Barack Obama Favorites:

Favorite Song:  Marvin Gaye - ‘What’s going on?’

Favorite Movie:  Shrek the Third

Favorite Superhero:  Spiderman

Favorite Cookies:  Shortbread

Favortire Food:  Mexican - Nachos with the cheese sauce on the side

John McCain Favorites

Favorite Song:  Neil Diamond - ‘Sweet Caroline’

Favorite Movie:  Indiana Jones and the Kinddom of the Crystal Skull

Favorite Superhero:  Batman

Favorite Cookies:  Oatmeal Raisen

Favortire Food:  Mexican - Nachos - cheese sauce on the chips

We sampled the favorites of each candidate and tomorrow we will continue discussing these ‘issues’ and what happens when you like something from a candidate you are not voting for.  Check out the pictures here.  I am also hoping that the polling lines here at Ray will not be too long as I would like to take the kids into to see the voting process.  In the midst of all that we will also be continuing to create our own polling booth and will vote after lunch time to be counted on Wednesday.  Should be fun!
