Halloween potluck

On the menu this year was:
eye balls
fingers
witches hats, witches hair and worms
rotting teeth, we told the kids this is what your teeth look like when you don't brush :)
spiders
worms
Thanks Hillary for all of the pictures of the potluck!

pumpkin carving

Kali was so excited to get to help carve her pumpkin this year.
First she decorated it.
I made a whole in the bottom.
Kali scooped out the insides.
Then she picked the face and vwala.  Our pumpkin master piece!

Haunted Lagoon

I will definitely miss the Haunted Lagoon.  Second year going, second year sitting right in the front and on the far left, I sat in the EXACT SAME SPOT.  And of course it is the SCARIEST place to sit.  That is where every one jumps out of the water right up into your face.  So pretty much we were screaming the WHOLE time!!!  IT WAS A BLAST!  I AM SO SAD I WILL  NOT BE ABLE TO DO THIS NEXT YEAR. :( tear.



Thanks Hill for being my date :)

Aloun Farms Pumpkins Patch

This was our third year at the Aloun Farm Pumpkin Patch and it will be our last.  
Am I sad?, NO WAY!!  I am excited for the Country Mercantile Harvest Fest next year, it blows this place out of the water.  I am sad my kids didn't get to go this year.
For those of you who don't know my parents own a store in Pasco called the Country Mercantile and each holiday is a huge event.  What am I saying everyday is a party at the Country Mercantile :)

OK, back to the Aloun Farms Pumpkin Patch
It has been a tradition now for Kali to always go for a horse ride, which she loves, can't you tell by the first picture:)

That's better. See I didn't force her to ride:)
The little carnival area.

we cannot ever leave an event with out going in the bounce house and on the slide, 
numerous times of course.
Time to pick the perfect pumpkin.
She was so sweet, she was very concerned about picking the perfect pumpkin for Krew since he wasn't able to be there.
This is the one.  
She said he needed a smaller one because he was little.

It is kind of fun to see your kids do things that remind you of yourself, like sitting very un-lady like.  My girl friends always gave me such a hard time, but it is comfortable :)  

There we go that is better, she is also very lady like.


Dentist

The kids went to the Dentist, Krew for his first time and they did AWESOME!!!  No cavities and they both just sat so still while getting their teeth cleaned.  
GOOD JOB LITTLE ONES :)


So of course their good behavior was rewarded with Orange Tree.  It is a self serve frozen yogurt place.  You get a cup and fill it up with as much frozen yogurt and toppings as you want.  They just weigh it at the end and charge you by weight.  


Since it took us an hour to drive to the Dentist and only 1/2 an hour at the appointment we decided to go for a walk.
We checked out the harbor and all the fish in the water.  Krew is obssessed with water, when ever he could see it he would repeat over and over again.  Watta, Watta.
We ended up and this fun little lagoon that the kids played in.  I should know living in Hawaii to always pack their swimming suits where ever we go.
They had the time of their life and Krew DID NOT want to leave.  He was in HEAVEN!!!
