Pumpkin Party

Last Sunday we had some friends over for a "Pumpkin Party".  Kaden was so excited to have this pumpkin party we had to get him a calendar so he could count down the days.  His Mimi and Papa came over after their church's marriage retreat and Aunt Carrie drove up too.  

We started the evening with "Mummy Dogs"  Don't laugh...the picture on Pinterest looked a lot better! ;)  But they were good.

Kids enjoying their dogs!

Setting up to carve

All (well as many as would stay still) the kids with their pumpkins.

What a great night and the kids had a blast.  Lots of cookies were eaten and the pumpkins looked great!

Animal Kingdom

Last Friday, Fadi and I took the boys on a special mini vacation.  We went with another couple and their son to Animal Kingdom and stayed overnight at a hotel.  On Saturday, we spent the day hanging out around Disney property and enjoying the fall weather. 

Lilo and Stitch

A Bugs life-don't let the silly faces fool you.  Kaden cried like a baby when the spiders fell from the ceiling.

Wild Raft Ride.  Eli and I stayed pretty dry. Eli had been sound asleep but when the cold water hit him he woke right up and started laughing.  I think he enjoyed the sensory input of the cold water, the wind and the bumpy ride.

Flights of Wonder Bird Show.

Dino Land Ride

Kaden was so excited to see a "my size" sink.

Both boys sharing a bed together.  Next time I will bring ear plugs though, I am not used to hearing so many people breath and snore!

Lego Races

Train Ride

I was getting hungry and wanted to eat something sweet.  Fadi stopped me here and took us to Ghirardelli for a treat.

Transportation Day

Kaden enjoyed a Transportation Day at school.  He got to go to different stations and ride on or learn about different means for transportation.

Lining up with his classmates to go to the next station.
