Halloween Parade & Bunny Festival

some bunny love

We went to the kids Halloween parade on Sunday. Kids walking down the street in costume, tossing out candy. You wore the mask you made at the opera party. You were shy, and wouldn't ask for candy. Kept wanting me to ask for you. You finally asked for yourself. At the end of the parade, a police car came by handing out bags with frisbee's in them. We got one fortunately.

Around the corner was the bunny festival. We stopped for a coffee and doughnut at the coffee cat. Then across the street to the festival in the sunken gardens. We pet some of the bunnies. Watched the bunnies do some games. Then we played frisbee. You did pretty well with it. After all that we went up in the tower.

atop the tower

Off we went to buy some new tennis shoes. And another pair of shoes. I want you to have a nice pair, just in case. Then we were finally heading back home. We had some dinner, and watched Meet the Robinson's. I turned off the TV and you CRASHED. You were still tired this morning.

a good weekend.

Opera

the spoils
This weekend we went to see Hansel and Gretel. The Opera. I was unsure how well you would take this production, but it was pretty good! You sat through the entire performance, and didn't complain at all. You wanted to know what was behind the curtain. Where the animals went when they left the stage. I am guessing that you understood mostly what was going on. You asked me questions about the daddy. You weren't afraid of the witch. And you noticed everything about the scenery. The sky backdrop lighting was red at one point. You said, look mommy, the sky is red.

After the production, there was a little party. We ate hot dogs, and drank juice. We made bracelets, masks, and gingerbread cookies. We had fun!

Then we went to Carols house so you could play with the older boys. :giggles: You wore them out.

Pumpkin Patch

Decided to drive down to Thousand Oaks and go to the Pumpkin Patch with Janis. What a fun time! They had dinosaurs, pumpkins, a petting zoo, all kinds of crazy stuff. I wanted to get out of the house for a day. And we got to see Janis. You like Janis. Anyway, came away without a pumpkin, or a toy! And still had a good time. Here is our Pumpkin patch shot.

The Zoo with Your buddy

We went to the zoo again, and met up with Michael and his parents. What a fun day. We were all worn out from that one. You two ran and ran from one thing to another. If you weren't leading, Micheal was. If Michael wasn't, you were. You wore all three of us out! You two are like peas and carrots. I hate that we don't spend more time with him.

the escape

You both got a fishing pole with a magnet on the end, and magnetic nosed fish to pick up. You are still playing with it two days later. Saying, michael is playing with his in the tub too. Your good friend. Sadly he will be moving to the east coast soon. There will be others. You are a good kid.

happy boys.

Zoo

Saturday we went to the zoo for a company function. We got a chance to run around with Angeli and Joei. From 11 am till 5 pm. At five we ran into Michael, from pre-school. You two were so excited to see each other. I am so glad that we ran into them. It was a good day. You hugged Micheal and you both fell over. We are going to set up a play date with them this weekend in Ventura.

Its getting close to Halloween. We are going to go down to visit Janis and go to the pumpkin patch this weekend after we see Micheal of course. SWEET!

more to come.

You sang

You are singing more often. I think that you are learning songs in school and I love that. You are singing more often. I like that we can sing songs together. But you are kind of bossy. Mommy it doesn't go like that. I said, then how does it go, you sigh. Then you say, it goes like this, with hand motions and everything.

you make me laugh.
