The frost was definitely on the pumpkin this Halloween, thanks to our early cold snap. But it didn’t discourage the roving hoards of ghouls from descending on our house! For this year’s Halloween quiz, can you tell which jack o’lantern is the McCain supporter?

Snow in October?
Pedestrians walk over a snowy Millennium Bridge after London and much of south east England got a dusting Tuesday night. It was the first snow to fall in October in London since 1934! Are we in for a hard winter? Part of me wants it… I really miss good old Chicago-style snowstorms. But my more sensible part is not so sure, since British Gas just raised the cost of heating our home by 42 per cent.
Happy Birthday Charlie!
Charlie with some of his birthday presents (too) early on his ninth birthday morning. The birthday festivities continue all weekend, with the big party on Sunday. More pictures to come!
Don’t stop believin’!
They don’t call Jim Thome Mr Incredible for nothing! What a game! What a trio of games! I feel emotionally drained already and the playoffs are only starting. I love the photo below of Alexi Ramirez taken the moment he realises he has just hit a grand slam in the game against the Tigers. It will go down as a baseball classic, and might even win a Pulitzer Prize. This team believes now. They have momentum. Anything can happen.
