Halloween!

Ever since Logan was a baby (3 months old), we've carved pumpkins.  Last year he was sick and wasn't really into it, but this year he was able to get "down and dirty" with us.  Here are some pictures of us cleaning out the pumpkin, and our finished product (which is supposed to be three ghosts). 

I can't tell you how much I love Halloween, especially now that Logan is at a fun age to enjoy all the fun, too!  This year we decided to dress him up as Bamm-Bamm from the Flinstone's, and Lillie was his Pebbles.  It was adorable!  On Halloween morning, I was scheduled to teach Stroller Strides, so we headed to the park to participate in a fun Halloween-themed workout!

Here's our little Bamm-Bamm.

One of our Stroller Strides' friends--Morgan--was dressed as Pebbles, so we had to snap a shot of her with Logan.  Too cute!

After class we had a Costume Parade.

Then the kiddos walked around for some stroller trick-or-treating!

Very excited about his loot!

Trying to snap a photo of Logan and his football buddy, Trever, was a little difficult, but here they are.

Mommy dressed up as a cat to teach class!

Here's an attempt at a group shot of all the kiddos.

This is such a cute picture because the boys are so distracted.  Logan is into his bubbles, and Trever is struggling to hold up his football (brother Connor).

After nap time, we headed to the Yorba Linda Friends Fall Festival.  It's so much fun because they have horseback rides, a petting zoo, bounce houses, games, and so much more!  Logan had a lot of fun on his horse ride!

After dinner, we met up with the Bridgfords to do some trick-or-treating in our neighborhood.  Bamm-Bamm finally got to meet up with his Pebbles.  Of course, right away the two of them wanted to show off their clubs!

Here's a picture of the two of them smiling!

Apple Picking

Last year we went apple, pear, and pumpkin picking at Riley's Farm in Oak Glen.  This year we decided to continue the tradition and open it up to our Stroller Strides' families.  This year Daddy was able to join us, too!  We had such a blast picking all the fruit, and Logan especially liked sampling it all!  Riley's Farm is such a beautiful place. I'm so glad we were able to share the fun with our Stroller Strides' friends!

Me and my sweet lil' man!

This year Logan got to actually select the fruit from the trees.  It was a lot of fun!

Technically we weren't supposed to eat the fruit while we were there, but Logan had a different agenda.

We were able to spend time with Ang and her extended family. Such a fun group of people!

I had to tickle this little one to get him to smile.

Look how beautiful all the flowers are.

Logan's First Disneyland Trip!

Since Daddy took Monday off from work for our camping trip, we decided to take Logan to Disneyland for the first time, instead.  It was such a great decision because we all had the best day together!  Initially we thought we would come home so Logan could nap, but since we were all having too much fun, we decided to push on through.  I'm so glad we did because we would have missed out on a few hours' worth of fun.  Here's some pictures of our fun-filled day at Disneyland!

Logan's first ride was the carousel, and he loved it!

While we were in ToonTown, we ran into Goofy.  Logan was so excited!

Logan kept saying, "Goofy!", "Hi, Goofy!" 

We absolutely had to go to Mickey's House so that Logan could meet his absolute favorite character, Mickey Mouse.  Logan was so enthralled by Mickey Mouse.  In fact, we couldn't get a picture of Logan looking into the camera because he wouldn't take his eyes off of Mickey Mouse!

Grandma couldn't make it to Disneyland with us, but she made sure we got Logan his first set of Mickey Mouse Ears.  Thanks, Grandma!

Logan was so happy, when later in the day Ellie and Lillie met up with us!  Here's Josh riding the Teacups with Ellie and Logan.

As soon as we got in the car, this kid passed out.  He had a fun-filled day but was completely pooped from partyin' at Disneyland all day.

Our 2nd Annual Camping Trip!

For our 2nd Annual Family Camping Trip we decided to head back to Serrano Campground in Big Bear.  It's local enough for the kiddos to last the drive in the car, and it's beautiful!  This year we had six different families gather at the campgrounds.  Although camping can involve some work, it was a very relaxing and enjoyable trip.  We had a blast lounging by the lake, hiking, and enjoying s'mores by the campfire together! Thank you so much--Matt, Roger, and Beth Cooper--for not only allowing us to use your trailer, but for towing it for us as well!  You guys are such a thoughtful family.

Trever grabbed his Daddy's fishing pole and decided to try and catch something himself.  Too cute!

Our "cool" beach day!

Since Logan is absolutely obsessed with bikes, he thought that riding around the campground on this bike with Daddy was the coolest thing ever!

Enjoying the peace and quiet.

Logan LOVED his first s'more!
