Trick or Treat

Today was the day we had been waiting for, Halloween. In the morning it was raining, but about noon the rain stopped, so we went trick or treating at the zoo.


Kenshi as little Dracula.


At the zoo entrance, they were handing out papers with riddles on them, that sent you all around the zoo. Once you got all 6 stamps you got a candy bag.





Jason had to coach so we didn't have much time anyways, but then it started to pour down rain, so we sprinted to the end. We got wet and we were rushing through, but we still had fun.


In the bag was some applesauce, a doughnut voucher, and stickers.



At night we headed to the mall. Almost all of the stores had candy for the kids. I forgot to take my camera so I don't have any pictures, but little dracula had fun going around the mall as well. Thanks to Kenshi, Mama got more candy!

Children's Museum

This is our 3rd time to visit the Children's Museum since we bought a member pass one week ago. It is a really fun place that has a lot of places that children get really into. Because it rains so much in Oregon, I am so thankful to have a place like this.


Today we played at the Clay corner. At the clay corner, not only Kenshi, but Mama and Papa also had fun.


Mama made a Train and Papa made a hamburger for Kenshi.


And of course Kenshi had a lot of fun playing at the train corner.

Update

I have not updated our blog in a long time. Having 3 babies (2 little and 1 big one) is busier than I thought. But I want to keep a family record and I also want to share our stories with the family so I will try and do better and update more often.

Pumpkin Carving

It was about time to get started on the pumpkin carving. I was looking forward to it, but at the same time thinking it could be such a pain. But after getting started, it was quite fun and we really got into it. I had never done it before and was so excited, I carved a cat and Kenshi's favorite, a Train, into the pumpkin. It didn't turn out well so I did not take a picture LOL. On the left is Yuushi's pumpkin and on the right is Kenshi's pumpkin.


After carving pumpkins, the mountainful of seeds that we pulled out, we cooked and ate them. Jason ate the seed covering and all, but I had to peel them. They tasted ''ok'' but I couldnt stop eating them.

Trunk or Treat

We went to the Church Halloween party. Kenshi dressed up as a little Dracula.


Yuushi dressed up as a pea pod that one of our friends let us borrow.


This is Kenshi's Thomas candy bucket that we bought more than a month ago.


At the Trunk or Treat Kenshi got some candy for Mama (Unfortunately Kenshi did not get even one piece. Sorry Kenshi).


It was fun.

ipod

Papa showed Kenshi how to use the ipod (although I wish he had not).
While I was making dinner, I turned around and Kenshi was standing on a stool by the counter with the headphones in his ears and was listening to music. After he broke the camera I wanted to keep him away from any electronics, but it was cute so maybe every now and then is ok.

Cute My Boys

Today was picture day for Yuushi. He was a happy boy, so it made it easy.


Kenshi was focused on the Thomas puzzle that papa had bought him.

Kenshi interested in Yuushi's hat, so I put it on him. He was pretty happy with the hat on.

Hair Cut

I gave Kenshi a haircut today. I didn't want to cut it this short, but Jason wanted to cut it short so I did.
He is a little monkey now!

Pumpkin Patch

Since the middle of this month, it has been continuously raining. But today the weather was nice so we decided to go to the pumpkin patch. After Jason finished his coaching, we headed Sauvie Island. The farm we went to was the farm that we really liked going to during the summer time. When we got there we were very surprised at how it had change to such a fall look.


The farm was completely orange because of the pumpkins.


We went for a hay ride around the farm pulled by a tractor.


Even though it was a tractor, Kenshi excitedly kept saying "Chu Chu".




It was really fun and Kenshi was disappointed when it was over.


After the Hay ride, Kenshi and Jason climbed up the Hay pyramid.


Look, Kenshi has a pumpkin on his head. Kenshi really liked a maze. Kenshi and papa played chase in the maze.


Kenshi went back to the maze so I had to take a picture of Papa.



Today we bought to little pumpkins for carving. They were only 1 dollar. I can't wait to carve pumpkins!
