One In the Oven: October's Final Days

We had a few big happenings towards the end of October. In addition to Kate’s birthday, we also have our big neighborhood garage sale (ok, it has NO business being mentioned in this particular posting, but we found some really good deals this year!), Copper’s birthday and our wedding anniversary. So happy birthday to Mr. Kunitz, and happy two year anniversary to the most wonderful guy that I know!

-- Birthday boy. --

-- Two happy years in the books, and many more to come! --

Our blog posts usually focus on Kate and her milestones (and occasionally on Copper, since he was our first baby), but it’s important that we acknowledge the achievements of one of the grown-up Snyders too. Brandon has his first semester of grad school completed and on the books! After being out of school for almost 10 years (YIKES!), he started a graduate program with SUNY Maritime in August. He jumped right in and took two classes his first semester, and ended up with an A in both courses! Kate, Copper, and I couldn’t be prouder of him!

And finally, it was Halloween! We had a pretty strong weather front move through the area that dumped a lot of rain on us, so our trick-or-treater numbers weren't as good as last year. We got Kate into her costume for about 15 minutes before she had a melt-down, so we didn't get very many good pictures. Poor little bug was so tired that while she was in the tub, I started to let the water out and turned around to get her towel...when I turned back to her, she was curled up on the bottom of the tub in the bubbles, almost asleep. It seems that someone had too much Halloween fun at school.
