Halloween 2007

We all had something going on for Halloween this year. Keith and I went to a party at the Brogan's house and had a great time eating good food and playing fun games. Katherine went Trunk or Treating with her dad at the Pinehurst Ward building, and Kimberly and Rebekah had a Halloween party with the Annie cast. Although I have no photos, we hear that Matthew went to numerous parties and dressed up as his roommate, Josh. Josh is quite tall and very broad and makes Matthew look quite tiny. He dressed in Josh's clothes and everyone got a big kick out of it.

Katherine's plants

Katherine started out the summer with a couple of aloe plants, 10 small tangerine trees about 2 inches tall that she grew from her Christmas tangerine, and a very tiny plant that was hardly the size of a fingernail. Her tallest tangerine tree is now nearly 10 inches, she ended up with 47 aloe plants that we had to find homes for, and the tiny plant is now the large one she is sitting behind and had several babies! She says she wants to be a botanist when she grows up! She also says that she wants to be the first North Carolinian to grow a tangerine tree that produces fruit!

If you want to see her tangerine trees at the beginning of the summer, look at the bottom of this page: http://stuffmatters.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html. The really tiny plants in the ice cream bucket are the tangerine trees!!!
