Happy Halloween

David carving his pumpkin. It's kinda sad, Amee and Bryan are done with this tradition. Funny thing Dave's pumpkin didn't even make it outside.

David with 3 of his many cousins, Luke, Max and Faith Adams, at a church Fall Festival. David and I were the only ones to make it. This party was the same night as the Homecoming Dance. I actually left David there with a friend and rushed home to see the big kids off. And of course, to take pictures.

David at his school Halloween party. The object of this game is to eat the doughnut without using your hands.

Harry "Harris" Potter stopped by for a visit on his way out to do some serious "Trick or Treating". Of course if you know David at all, he doesn't care for candy, unless it's Hersey's chocolate. He decided he wanted to go "Trick or Treat" in the neighborhood of one of his friends from his old school. Again, it was only David and I, the big kids went to the Homecoming Game. We ended up staying at the party that his friend's parents had. David was able to "Trick or Treat" with some old friends. It was awesome.



My little devil and Harry Potter.

SRHS 2008 Homecoming Dance "Friday Night Lights"

Amee and Ryan, SRHS Homecoming Dance.

The Seniors had their own theme "Ghetto Glam".

Bryan and Ryanne, SRHS Homecoming Dance. It may appear that Bryan has his first date, but No. There is a group of kids who went together, Bryan was the first one to get picked up.

I kinda got alittle choked up. I didn't think I would have two kids going to the same dance. Especially not with a date/friend that have the same name. Wierd.



Ryanne, Sierra, Bryan and Katie. Jeff didn't make into the picture. Jeff and Bryan have been friends since kindergarten, actually they have the same birthday.

The Petaluma Corn Maze

Amee was not able to join us at the pumpkin patch because she had to work. Saturday evening Amee, (her boyfriend) Ryan, Megan and (her boyfriend) Tony went to the corn maze. I received a phone call around 8:30pm from an hysterical Amee. They had lost Megan and Tony, and had been lost in the maze for an hour and a half. She was laughing, but yet frustrated.

She called again at 9:00pm to tell me that they were still lost. Apparently by 9:15pm Ryan had had enough and decided they were going through the wall. They ended up between the maze and the freeway. Amee said this was the best date she been on, so far.

Tolay Fall Festival

On Saturday Oct 18, we took the boys, our friend (and adopted family) Sandra and Brandon to the Tolay Fall Festival which is held in Petaluma. We wanted to do something a little different when it came to pumpkin picking this year. Here the boys are coming out of the Nighttime Creatures Barn. There were all kinds of creepy crawlers in there, along with some stuff animals. We also saw an owl up in the rafters, very cool.

On the hay ride out to the pumpkin patch. Amee wasn't able to come with us, she had to work.

Here we are in the pumpkin patch. We actually had to giggle at this. See, no plants. They hauled the pumpkins out here from who knows where.

Taking our pumpkins back to the festival to pay for them.

Check out this Teepee, it's made of bark. I always thought they were wrapped with hides.

We had a good time, even though we didn't participate in the pumpkin seed spitting contest. David and I even made candles.
