Signs of Halloween





Halloween












For Halloween Lauren and I went to one of her friends home for a nice dinner and then we went trick or treating.  After going around their neighborhood we stopped by Janine and Don's neighborhood for a quick visit.  It was another great Halloween and Lauren really scored with the candy!!

Pumpkin Carving Party












Lauren and I had Janine, Blaire and Grant and Brian, Diane, Sammie and Jacob over to crave pumpkins.  We had pizza and some treats and then be started to crave.  Lauren craved her own pumpkins.  The only thing I helped with was opening the pumpkin.  She did the rest by herself.

They all turned out so nice.

Showcase




Desert Storm had their showcase on Oct. 27.  It was the first time got to see all the teams and what they have been working on.  They did a great job.  They are a young team and there was a lot of changes on this team.  I was so proud of how well they did.  The start competitions in about a month.  It should be fun.

Glasses




A few weeks ago Lauren's school called and told me they thought that Lauren might need glasses.  I made an appointment and sure enough Lauren needed glasses.  She only needs to wear them for distance like board work or movies or the like.

Lauren picked out the frames she liked and when they came in she was so excited to get them.  I think she looks just perfect with them or without.

Fall Break Vacation - Day 3 - Legoland














We spent our last day of vacation at Legoland.  I think Lauren might be a bit too old to really enjoy Legoland.  She did have fun with the trick or treat area but she thought she was a bit too old for most of the rides.  My little girl is growing up so fast.  This is probably another place we won't visit anymore.  After our visit we headed back to Arizona.  Our fall break vacation was fun but too short.
