A picture (courtesy of Michael Barrow) from Clara's first birthday party in Mid October. Inside the bouncy house. L-R: Nela and Madeline, Liz and Clara, Chase and Monika, Kai and Lynette.
Amara's preschool had a big Halloween celebration and parade on the 30th of October. Below, Amara (the tallest kid in the class), two other Cinderellas, another two princesses and a witch dance in circle.
Amara goes to grab another princess to join the dance.
Ben and Clara at the preschool.
Going on parade. It was 80 degrees! Amara and the other kids all nearly melted in their costumes.
Nela and Madeline at the preschool after the parade.
Afterward, I took Amara and Kai to where Lynette teaches so they could show off their costumes. Here Amara poses with Snow White (Lisa) the school receptionist.
And smiled with Kai. I call this one "The man in the big brown hat and his curious monkey".
Later, I went to the hockey game and wore my turn-outs (fire dept uniform). In years, past a game that was on on near Halloween saw a majority of fans dressing up, this year I felt like a dork as only a handful of fans wore costumes. Boo! At least the Sharks won the Avs.
Uncle Doug came up to help celebrate Halloween, below is proof that he helped with pumpkin carving.
And helped Kai get ready to get candy...
And took a nice one with Amara.
Out trick r treating with Amy (a neighbor). No flash but I still like this image. Two princesses.
Our pumpkins this year, Amara painted the middle one.
After Halloween, Amara is all smiles.
And Kai gets into eating some spaghetti. 
Later Kai slugs back a bottle.
Amara got to wear her pretty dress for school pictures below.
And mooshed her face against the glass for reasons unknown.
At the park, Kai worked on sprinkling grains of sand, and getting dirty.

282nd Face(s) Halloween Comes Early
Yesterday was the annual Halloween Festival at Santana Row so I took the kids for a third year. Amara got to trick or treat, moving from shop to shop getting candy. There were a LOT of people (mostly moms) with their kids all dressed up for H-day. I love to see all of the costumes. Disney Princesses were all of the rage. Nearly every girl in attendance was dressed as her favorite princess closely followed by Tinkerbell. Amara was her favorite princess, Cinderella, and Kai went as a monkey. You can tell who was excited to go...
And who really wasn't into it...
Getting ready for candy collection at the fountain.
Amara looked great
And Kai finally woke up.
We even made an appearance at Container Store to see Grandma Karen.
It was a really fun day but the cold wind finally got the best of us and we headed home with our pumpkin bucket half full of candy. A fun time, despite teh crowds and the weather.
