Busy Month of October

October was an extremely busy month for us. Along with all the assignments for my Master's program. We went on a trip to Disneyland, threw a Birthday Party for Kaitlyn, planned a Birthday surprise for Deniz, celebrated Agatha's Birthday and Halloween. Wow I don't know how I got through the month.


Disneyland
We drove to Disneyland and took my mom with us. It was so much fun, Kaitlyn had a blast. I think Owen enjoyed it too. I'm pretty sure Kaitlyn's favorite part was meeting Tinkerbell and playing hide-n-seek with her. It was all pretty magical for me, just getting to see the expressions on Kaitlyn's face was well worth the trip.

Kaitlyn's Birthday Party

A fun painting party for Kaitlyn's 3rd Birthday. Kaitlyn had a blast at her Birthday party, Nana Claudia did face painting. Which all her friends at the party were boys, so she was the only one willing to get her face painted. All the kids had fun painting the outline of their body.

A Day at Fog Willow

For the past two years we have gone to Fog Willow Pumpkin Farm to get our pumpkins. This is such a great place for the kids. This year we made a day of it. Deniz, Owen, and I went and picked up Kaitlyn from pre-school and headed to Fog Willow. Both Owen and Kaitlyn belong to the little pickers club which means they get a free pumpkin every year until they are 13. Not only do they have pumpkins, they also have pony rides, hay rides, a giant hay pyramid, a play area, petting zoo and a mattress trampoline.

Halloween

Being that this month was crammed packed with activities we didn't end up carving the pumpkins until the day of Halloween. Which is probably a good thing since the weather was so hot. What a great day, we carved the pumpkins, roasted the seeds and went Trick-or-Treating with a couple of the neighbors. This was really Kaitlyn's first time Trick-or-Treating, last year we took her to our Church for the Harvest Festival. She caught on rather quick and was very excited that people were giving her candy. At one house she said "Happy Birthday" instead of Happy Halloween. It was so cute. Owen just hung out in the stroller.
