Our moth of October has flown by! I can not believe it. Brianna told me this week there are only 50 days till Christmas! WHAT?? Crazy.
The beginning of the month we went to Disneyland for our friend Wyatt's Birthday. Jake and I went while James was at school and then Craig and James met us later.
Mason, Wy and Jake. No one is looking at the camera!
Wyatt and Jake on a ride.
WHile we watched the parade James hid behind his map! Silly boy.
JAmes was brave enough though to try a new ride. The Grizzly Bear Run. I don't get this kid. He goes on scary rides but then won't go on the Little Mermaid! I actually think I have figured it out. He doesn't like to go on rides that are inside and dark. But he will go on way scarier rides!!
James started his Faith Formation classes at church in preparation to make his first communion! He loves the classes!
Jake and I were part of helping hands at school and we made Brownies for his classmate who had a baby sister!
Jake had a field trip to the fire station. Jake with his friend Michael.
I was so glad I could go with them. Love this part of being a stay-at-home- Mom.
We took a tour of their station and the fireman got all dressed in his gear. I was surprised Jake wasn't scared of him!
We were all so excited that all the kids got to spray the fire hose!! So fun!
Jake with his best buds, Alex and Michael. I don't know why they are doing that pose!
Jake's class
We have another child high on the bell curve of losing teeth! Jake lost his first tooth!! And two weeks later he lost his second! He didn't want the tooth fairy to come so he didn't get anything! He was a little scared of her coming into his room.
We went down to Newport one day and took the duffy out. It was such a beautiful day.
Last month I forgot to mention that James has a new teacher. They did some re-arranging of classrooms because they didn't have a very high enrollment of Kindergarten this year which affected everything and James ended up in a new classroom. Which we were happy about. We absolutely love his new teacher.
James' self portrait...
He was star of the week and here is his poster...
Jake was helper of the day and got to bring home his class pet, Patches.
Jake had Grandpals day at school. Nonna and Nonni enjoyed their day with him. Jake made them both bracelets.
So sweet...
We went to the rip off pumpkin patch that you can't hide from. The kids always see it and can't wait to go!
Luckily the workers don't pay much attention to the time you spend on the slides and we got a lot of time in!
The weekend before Halloween Jake's pre-school had a trunk-or-treat at his school. We went with my friend Carrie and her kids.
James was player of the game! So he got to take home this Minion for the week! He is doing SO much better and has shown tremendous improvement!
We had an adult night out for my friend Lindsay's Birthday! So much fun but we are noticing our age with staying out late and drinking! Glad we had nothing to do the next day!
This was the first year since we have been married that Craig has carved a pumpkin!
He will now be carving one every year until the boys can do it themselves!
It was a family affair!
Our three little pumpkins!
Jake...Spyro from Skylanders!
James...Steve from Minecraft
We went to Vince and Lisa's house again. The kids love passing out candy!
Jake wasn't too big on trick-or-treating this year. He only wanted to go to houses that didn't have decorations. He went to about 5 houses and then wanted to go home. James went to a lot this year. From year to year you never know how they are going to react!
We have so much fun with our cousins!
One morning I came downstairs to this! It melted my heart! <3 p="">
