October

Chase's beautiful cousin, Stacey married Josh Slater this month on the 13th at a gorgeous ceremony at La Quinta Resort near Palm Springs. Hunter made a great ring bearer this time and happily walked all the way down the aisle with a smile. Maybe it had something to do with holding the pretty flower girl's hand? ;) We spent the whole weekend playing and enjoyed every minute with the extended family. We all had a great time.









I was lucky enough to have a girls day with my besties this month, we decided to go kayaking at the La Jolla Coves. It's always fun being together whatever we do but I always love an adventure.


On the 26th, my cousin Jessie and her husband, Wilber welcomed their son, Max into the world. The kids and I were able to go visit him and the happy parents in the hospital. Another beautiful addition to our family and Hunter can't wait for him to get big enough to play with :)





In preparation for Halloween, we went to Knott's- Campy Spooky and also the pumpkin patch near our house. The kids both love dressing up and, of course, all the candy. 









Hunter's preschool class had another Halloween party, parade and pinata. So cute to see all the excitement.




And then, of course, was the big day. Nana came over for dinner and pictures before we headed out trick or treating with some friends in our neighborhood. Chase made it home from work just in time and  the kids loved racing from house to house to get MORE CANDY! We had a few sugar induced meltdowns and Skyler was determined to walk by herself and hold her Mickey Mouse treat container with no help from anyone. She is very independent this month apparently. But overall it was a great experience and we can't wait to do it again next year.
