Happy Halloween!


I love these babies -- and that is what Haylie and Katie are. Audra, on the other hand, refused to dress up....she insisted on wearing her pumpkin shirt and holding her new purse. She is a girls after my own heart!

Recap

Well, it seems like all I ever do on this old blog is "recap"! Things are settling down with us, so I think I may be able to get back on the blog band wagon. Here's an update:

Trevor passed his state exam a few weeks ago! Hip hip hooray! He studied and prayed his head off! We are so thankful for this blessing. In September he received word that he was going to be transferred to a facility in Upland. For the girls and I, that meant that after 2 months of being separated from Trevor, we were going to be all living under one roof again! We found a great house in Eastvale, which is about a 20 minute commute for Trevor.

Before we moved we had some good times with our Camarillo friends:

A trip to the LA Zoo with the Melines

Our last Sunday dinner with our wonderful Melines. Patrick makes the most yummy food in the world! I will miss it, but my waist won't!

Paige, Haylie and Bridgette. Haylie sure misses them!


We moved in on Tuesday, October 12 and didn't waste anytime. While Trevor was busy keeping up with his new building (working from about 6 am -10 pm daily) I was unpacking like a mad woman! I had good motivation because the Huhtalas were coming to visit us on Sunday! I loved to be with my sister friend Joalea (and her kids and husband were pretty fun too!)

We headed to San Diego for a day at LegoLand. We decided that anyone has not been to LegoLand, isn't missing a thing! Seriously, it costs almost as much as Disneyland and it is pretty lame.

Disneyland, on the other hand, did not disappoint! We went on Katrina's 8th birthday. The lines were short and the weather was great. Best of all, I've never seen a grown man be so happy about Disneyland. Jason thought he'd died and gone to heaven! It was very entertaining!

Time for a "jew box" break (that's what Audra calls them!)

Happy 8th birthday to Katrina!

Pretty cool girls!

And last, but not least, thru all this chaos in our lives, Audra decided that she is a big girl and potty trained herself! We are loving our new Elmo's World unders!
