Visiting Friends -- Car Trip

Benji amused himself on the way home by writing a memo about his trip. --Victoria

Visiting Friends -- Tower of Cups

While we were visiting Jessica and Ross, Jess kindly let Benji take all the plastic cups out of their kitchen cabinets and build a giant tower with them. He was a very proud and happy little boy. --Victoria

Visiting Friends -- Playground

Benji and I drove to Philadelphia to visit our friends Jessica and Ross and their sons, six-year-old Jonah and six-month-old Ari. Jonah showed Benji around a giant playground castle, and helped him navigate the difficult parts. --Victoria

Aaron made us pose by the sign that said "Large Mums"!

Apple Picking, part 1

A few weeks ago, we went apple picking with Sarah and Yousef. Between our two families, we ended up buying an entire bushel of apples. That's a lot of apples! Benji saw some goats and said "doh!" (dog!). Then he saw some chickens and said "doh!" again. Sigh. --Victoria

Halloween

Apologies for the blog silence. Things have been really busy at work. Benji, of course, is still as cute as ever. For Halloween, he went as a dog (with Doh the Dog as his puppy). His friend Xavi went as a garden gnome. We didn't go out trick-or-treating, but we did go to the "Hilloween" street fair near Eastern Market. --Victoria
