Happy Halloween!







What a fun time we've had this year! Cameron decided a while back that he wanted to be an airline pilot, so with a little help from a good friend, an Alaska airline pilot himself, we managed to put together the perfect Halloween costume. Once dressed and luggage candy holder in tow, Cameron (very seriously) asks, "Now Mommy, where is my airplane?" So cute! Audrey too had a good time. She dressed up as our favorite neighbor's dog, Captain. She is able to bark like a dog with a small "woof, woof" which of course, makes us all laugh.

On Halloween night, we enjoyed a fine dinner of yummy black bean soup (witches brew) at the Gostin's house and then headed out to trick-or-treat once it got dark. The kids had fun and enjoyed a crisp, dry evening and a full moon to light the way!

Oh sure, happy now that you got a bag with a new toothbrush and other goodies.

Sometimes I wonder where time goes and what I've done in that time.  Blogging and other hobbies such as organizing photos and making albums have somehow been put on the back burner.  Today I'm back and I will catch you, my dear friends and family, up on our simple lives.  The kids are great and growing up fast!  Cameron and Audrey just adore one-another and play more and more together as siblings should.  Our children are super independent and are always exploring and doing things on there own.  Chris is working hard as General Manager at the Silverdale Famous Daves and I'm busy holding down the fort here at home.  I take in a few baby sitting jobs here and there and look forward to subbing when I can get my hands on a job (they are far and few between these days).  Life is good, busy, but good!
