Halloween is here!

Tonight Riley and Sydney invited us over again for a yummy potluck and trick-or-treating!

Here are all of us kids:Back row: Jared, Kacey, Kayla, Riley, Sydney
Front row: Brent, Cassidy, Emily, sister, Cole, and me
















Notice that sister is FINALLY in a group picture and is actually smiling?! Mommy told her that after she took a good picture, she could go trick-or-treating and get candy! I think it worked!

We had to show you this picture of our friends Cole, Emily and their Mommy and Daddy. Don't they look so cute?!










Sister just LOVED trick-or-treating! She would mumble something that sounded close to "trick-or-treat" when she went to the door. After she got candy, she would say, "Thank you Auntie or Uncle!"

Church Halloween Party

Tonight was our Halloween party at church! Above is a picture of a bunch of us kids with Reverend Keith and his wife Viki. As usual, sister did not want to be in the picture!

Below are a couple of pictures of me with cousins, and me running around having fun!

Halloween party

Today we all dressed up for our Halloween party at school!

Here is a picture of my teacher, Mr. Brian, and the rest of my class.

















Here I am with Mrs. Park and sister with Mrs. Kawasaki. They are two of the volunteers at school. We love them so much!


Earlier in the day, we went to the senior center around the corner from school and sang some Halloween songs for them. Here we are doing the "scary" portion of our song! On the right is a picture of sister having fun at the Halloween party with Daddy.

Treatin' at the Row

Today was the Mommy & Me Trick-or-Treating day at Santana Row! Mommy and sister met Kacie, Nolan and their Mommies for some Halloween fun! Sister was a little hesitant at first, but she quickly got the hang of collecting the candy!

Spending time with Connor

Connor and I have become closer buddies now that we are at school together! Sometimes we even meet for dinner after school and hang out more! Tonight we hung out since both of our daddies are in Hawaii. As you can see... we have so much fun together!

Almost potty trained!

This isn't a very "happy" picture of sister... but I suppose if you think about it, might be hard to smile for the camera when you are using the potty!!!

Sister has been much faster than me at reaching milestones... crawling, walking, talking... she has beaten me at every one! The latest milestone... using the potty! She has been using the potty for almost a month (and she isn't even 2 years old yet!) She still isn't completely potty trained... but Mommy and Daddy sure are happy that they haven't changed a poopy diaper in a long time!

Play date with Rory & Koji

Today Auntie Jolie brought Rory and Koji over to see us! (Daddy was in Hawaii at Uncle Greg's wedding... he didn't bring the camera... so unfortunately no pics to post!)







Rory and I got along really well! I keep asking Mommy when he is going to come over again!

Pumpkin Patch for sister!

Since I got to go to the pumpkin patch with my school, Mommy decided to have a little field trip for sister with some friends! We met Auntie June there with the two kids she babysits (Kenji and Ava).




Sister's favorite part was riding in the train. Mommy had a very hard time getting her out!









Sister had such a good time. She was sad to leave... and even had to give the pumpkin a hug goodbye!

Aly's 2nd birthday

After the pumpkin patch, we hopped in the car (and thankfully took a nap!) and headed to our friend Aly's 2nd birthday party!








They had this really cool "Bubble Lady" there! She put on a whole performance with bubbles and kept us all mesmerized with all different sizes of bubbles! She even wrapped us in a big bubble!

We had a GREAT time! Happy birthday to you, Aly!

Annual Uesugi outing

Today we headed to Uesugi Pumpkin Patch. Once again, our annual outing just wasn't the same without the Noji family!!!








Here is our really bad attempt at taking a kid picture! Some of us weren't cooperating very well! (I tried to help sister keep her head still, but it didn't really work!)








Here are pics of all the families that came:
























The weather was beautiful! We enjoyed riding the train and hanging out with everyone. Once again, thanks to Auntie Deb for organizing. We hope you guys are able to come next time!!!

Annual Crafy Fox & luncheon

Okay... so there were a couple things about our annual Crafty Fox get together that weren't quite right this year! For starters... our organizer, Auntie Debbie, and her family weren't able to come! Some of them were a little under the weather, so they weren't able to fly here.


Since they weren't here, most of us decided to skip the Crafty Fox boutique and just headed straight to the park for our potluck lunch!





Here are pictures from our luncheon. To the left is the kids' table! We are all growing up so fast! We get our own table now!

We all had a great time... but we missed the Noji family!!! Thanks for organizing everything Auntie Deb!!!
