Happy Halloween!!!











Happy Halloween!!! Well, today was VERY eventful! Makena went to school in her Cinderella costume. I must give a shout-out to the advertising and marketing team at Disney for the ingenious idea of releasing Cinderella 'right' before Halloween! We've got the movie, and the entire costume get up.



Anyhow... Makena's preschool does trick-or-treating at the couple businesses in their area so parent volunteers and teachers walk all the dressed up children around to trick-or-treat. I was able to go last year, but this year I had go to out and about for work so I wasn't able to make it :( Oh well. Makena had a WONDERFUL time and wore her costume for the remainder of the day.


In the evening our friends came over and we made dinner (well she pretty much did) it was DELICIOUS! By the time we were done we were ready to go trick-or-treating!! YAYY!

We touched up Makena's make up and went to our new neighborhood (where we'll be moving in a couple days) It was GREAT! Fun neighborhood with lots of kids trick-or-treating. There were even some really scary houses that we went to. It's great that everyone really gets into the spirit of things.

Here are some photos of the kiddos. I'll upload a video in the next couple of days. Enjoy!!! :)

Thought for the day..... Monday
You know, something I observed made me really wonder.... but there's just something about people who publically announce 'good deeds' they've done for attention. The good deeds seem to get tainted once announced publically. I guess I was just raised differently. Ya know, it's the feeling you get when you do something nice for someone that is amazing- don't get me wrong, but I just find it odd to need that extra reassurance and kudos when you've done something. It's that thought... that someone wise once said... "I didn't realize adults needed brownie points". I don't know- I guess it just dumbfounds me just a little....

Thought is over- I'm on with my day :)

Happy Monday!!!

Introducing... MONKEY GIRL!!!I had fun with this video- Makena and I were at the park, she just started to climb up the tree, just like a monkey. Made it to the top- and TADAAA- hung from a branch! Like that of a true Chimp. LOL :)

Been a while.....
Well, It's been a while since I've updated my blog. We've been super busy! I rarely have time to check my emails these days, but that will change as soon as we settle into our new house. PJ has been gone training (his first long training stint as he prepares to leave for Iraq again) so I've been a single mom trying to adjust to all the changes. Additionally, our condo is for sale and we've needed to move into something with more room and a yard for a while. Makena is at the age now that she needs to really be active and outdoors and with the condo it's just getting too small for us. But here in So Cal property is a premium so... we're finally getting into something larger. That said- there's more room to make jewelry too- and JUST in time for the holidays! YAYYY!

I've also been swamped at work. With my recent promotion I've been working hard, missing lunch and really enjoying it believe it or not. So between Work, Home and Moving it's been a juggling act. PJ will be home for one day and then will leave again for a couple more weeks. One day- just long enough to move all the heavy things into our new home and then leave. So... I will get us settled in and he'll come home to a completely new home. It's a good thing that I'm handy around the house :)

Recently my mom came to visit - I'll try and post some photos tonight. We went to Legoland and had a great time! I'm hoping to take a moment to take Makena to the Pumpkin Patch sometime this weekend. Probably not on Saturday as we'll be busy painting the new house and getting packed to move. Maybe just Maybe on Sunday. We'll see.

I have much to do but - in case you haven't checked out the video of Makena (I couldn't view it from home - but it works from my work) hopefully it works for you too. I didn't realize it was only a 2 second video. I'll try to put some more video of her up tonight or this weekend.

Well- that's all for now.
