Halloween Party

We again got to go to Kevin's Work Halloween Party. This year they were very strict about only having 1000 people in the buildings at a time, so we had to wait in lines this year. It felt like Disneyland. While waiting in line though, they had clowns, popcorn, cotton candy, a band, the 1996 World Yo Yo Champion, and security dressed in Star Wars costumes. So much to see and do.

Haley was snow white. We got a lot of use out of this costume, she's worn it to 2 birthday parties, school, the work halloween party, and trick or treating.

Isaac the vampire. Unfortunately my camera was on the wrong setting so my pictures didn't turn out great.

Logan a knight.

And Dragon Derek. At one point Derek got the sword and slayed the knight.

In Jail. We walked through a forest, a submarine, Shreks home all kinds of fun stuff.

With the balloons they got from the clowns.

The party wore Isaac out, he couldn't get in the house.

Carving pumpkins

Jordan and Amanda came over for our family pumpkin carving night. We had a lot of fun and some delicious pumpkin seeds after.

Haley didn't start off having fun, but she got into it.

Haley and Logan carved their own pumpkins (I only helped Logan a little bit he did most of it himself)

Special Breakfast with Logan

While in California I took Logan out on a mommy son date for breakfast. One of Logan's favorite foods is French Toast and this date, made me "the best mommy in the world."

French Toast with Strawberries, bananas, whip cream and chocolate milk.

Crazy cousins

Papa is a monkey, and a crowd favorite.

California Trip

We recently took a trip to California. Logan earned us this trip by scoring 5 goals in his soccer games. We drove down on October 13, and on the 14th we went to Disneyland. Our family, plus Tami, Maddison and Kati. We had a great time. We started out in California Disney, but by the time we made it to the other side we decided Kevin needed a wheel chair. Our entire trip had almost been cancelled because Kevin had hurt his knee a couple of weeks earlier. Out of his love for me and not wanting to disappoint the kids, he pushed back his surgery a month so we could take this vacation.

The wheel chair was nice, because it got us to the front of a lot of the lines.

Buzz Lightyear was Isaac's favorite ride. He called it the "shoot the bad guys ride" At the end of day we were getting ready to leave and for 40 min he kept saying "me want shoot bad guys again" So we gave in and it was the last ride of the evening.

When we were getting Haley ready for Disneyland I told her to go put on the orange tank top with skirt. She told me that she didn't want to because wearing tank tops is bad. I asked her where she had heard that and she said school. It's against the school dress code. So I told her to just go look at it and if she didn't want to wear it that was fine I would get her something else. A few minutes later she came out wearing it and Kevin said she decided to wear it because it was cute.

Disneyland was all decorated for Halloween.

On the tram ride home at the end of the day. The kids were so tired. By the end of the ride to our car, Logan had fallen asleep also.

Haley and Maddison rode every ride together. Here on Pirates they sat in the last row all by themselves.

We got to see Captain EO which Disney brought back. This was always a favorite of mine as a kid. The kids loved it. When we were watching it, Michael Jackson started talking and Haley asks "Captain EO is a girl?"
