Fitting in the rest of October

Second week of November and I am still finishing up October blogs. Oh well better late than never. There are no actual pictures of the pumpkin carving, because I told my kids to go get something on that could get dirty and they ran in their rooms only to come out in there bathing suits. Needless to say I did not bat an eye and got right in to carving. Then later I thought that it would seem a bit strange the the average on looker.

We did however find time to make life size skeletons and dance around with them all night.

Enjoy!

RAD Playdate

We do have some pretty crazy fun play dates, but this has got to be one

of my all time favorite photos of all the kids at the pumpkin patch. Two

camera WOmen and Laura got the best shot.

(GREAT job Laura! Thanks new camera)

Enjoy, it always makes me smile

It's been my screen saver for ever.

Homeschool Day at Monterey Bay Aquarium

The Monterey Bay Aquarium has a homeschool day each year

where home schoolers get in free. Thanks to some of my new awesome home school Mom friends I was invited in a group of four Mom's and total of ten kids between us.

We had a blast and the kids had an okay time too.

Mid way we came across a home school science center where we had limited time, but were able to make really awesome sharks that were a hit.

The aquarium had a phenomenal seahorse exhibit an Parker freaked out when he learned that daddy sea horse's give birth and really flipped his lid when he saw a video of it.

Parker: "AHHHH...he's squirting baby's out of his belly button"

Let's just hope that does not confuse him too much, right?

The boys have known the other kids through church for awhile, but the Mom's and I finally had a chance to get to know each other, in the we have 10 kids running around kind of way.

All in all it was a long, wonderful, new, exciting kind of day and I am so very happy we choose this for Parker.

PS Please tell me how awesome the jellyfish reflection pictures are. They blew my mind!

I love this team work!
