October Tricks and Treats!!!

October began with some tailgating in LA!!

Daddy christened his new trailer!

Freddy was tired from the drive and had issues with the DirecTV, 

but he was a trooper and a great host!

The next day, we took a trip to Hollywood!

Evan got to meet the wax Jim Carrey!

And they both got to pose with Captain Jack!

That evening, we went to Descanso Gardens for an amazing pumpkin display! 

It is a special place  to Mommy and Daddy because back in Dec of 2001, 

Daddy proposed to Mommy in the rose garden there! 

There was even Wizard of Oz themed display with the Emerald City!

The next day, we went to Universal!

Dracula let the boys keep their blood!  Phew!

To finish off our LA trip, we went to Knott's Berry Farm!

We got to ride a bunch of fun rides!

It was a great trip!  What a fun Fall Break!

Our home was built a decade ago, so we figured it was time to paint.  Halloween time was a perfect time to do it!  It made our house look spookier!

Evan decided to play soccer for a season!

This was a clip from his first game. 

He was a go-getter!  Great job big boy!!!

One evening we paid a visit to Schnepf Farms...

We rode some rides...

And went on the spooky train!

It was hilarious to see how scared, but brave the boys were!

We also sat in the pumpkin patch...

And watched fireworks! It was a fun night! 

The weekend before Halloween, we dressed as 

Two Face and Michelangelo!

And went to a friend's pumpkin carving party!

Ryan carved a creepy face...

And Evan carved the cast of The Regular Show!

It's always a fun family tradition for us to "Boo" people in the Ranger!  

Of course we followed through with it again this year!

We even play music to sing along to on the ride!

On Halloween in 1st grade, Ryan dressed as Spongebob...

And Evan had to pull off his Two Face costume without face paint in 4th... 

On Halloween night, the boys chose for us to dress as characters from The Regular Show"...

Mordecai, Rigby, Skips, and Margret!

We went to the Aguilar Casa for a festive night...

Of passing out candy...

Trick o' Treating...

Crafts...and Fun!

We hope all of you had a Happy Halloween!

September

Evan lost a tooth!

It was a special one, since he still has his braces on!

The boys had 80's day at school!

They enjoyed dressing up!

I had a meeting at Summit that morning, so I joined in on the fun!

Ryan's baseball season started again!  He is playing a hybrid league...kid pitch/coach pitch.

He got an in the park HR!

And did great pitching for the first time too!

He struck out 1!

2!

3...in an inning and a half!  It's going to be a great season!

We had a little fun with bubbles one weekend!

Cheese!

Fall is around the corner, which means...it's time to root for USC again!

Evan decided to join a soccer team for the fall!  The games start October 11th.

Ryan had an Art Open House on the 25th.  This is his home!

He also had to choose a place in the community.

He chose Dick's Sporting Goods!  He loves his sports!

September flew by!

Enjoy your October!!!
