Party at Pretend City

We had our first dress up attempt and since I was behind on getting Ellanie's costume made, they went as Thing 1 and Thing 2. We had a great time at the Pretend City Halloween party.

Fall Festival

Our old neighborhood held a fall festival and since we remain very close to everyone there we joined in on the fun!
Which included Ellanie's first pony ride :) She was so brave and rode on the pony for a while!
Riding her big girl birthday bike from Grandma.
We made a stop at the face painting booth and Ellie got some hearts painted on her hand.
Ellanie and her friend Anna
Logan fell asleep in the stroller ( he didn't want to take a nap that day ) but woke up in time for snow cones!
He checked out the horses but decided not to ride.
We had a great time and headed off to the park when we were all done.

Mickey Mouse Sighting

It was our second trip to Disneyland and we spent most of our time in Toon Town exploring. But it started out with meeting Mickey Mouse himself, Ellanie was scared and stayed with Grandma and Logan gave him high five but wanted out fast.
The kids loved all the houses you can run through and everything they offer to explore.
They stopped to have a quick conversation with each other.

Fall Fun at Zoomars

We spent the day with Vinnie and her family and Alyssa and her family at Zoomars for some fall activities.
The kids each picked out a pumpkin and had a great time decorating it.
Logan was proud of his pumpkin! They did a great job!
We took time to visit with all the animals.
For Fall they had a huge corn box set up and the kids LOVED it!
Tabs and Ellie playing together, I think they are counting corn.
Logan and Noah playing together.
Taken with my phone so the color is off but everyone had such a great time!

Got Apples

We had a fun day planned with lots of friends and family in Yucaipa apple picking!
These are however the only apples seen, as when we got there they had stopped the picking because they had run out of apples. It was a bad crop season and they had a 1/3 of the supply of apples that they had last year.
So we were quickly off to take advantage of all the other fun activities they offer.
Ellie and her cousins she loves so much! We were lucky to get to spend the day with Aunt Kim, Emma and Payton along with Grandma and Grandpa Case.
The kids spent some time in the petting zoo.
It was not coordinated that they all dresses alike, however, somehow I thought it was going to be cool and dressed the kids accordingly and it ended up being in the 90's. So that and Logan being a stuborn 2 year old is what led to him with no shirt.
We were also lucky to spend the day with good friends Tricia, Vinnie and her family and Ligia and her family. It was so nice to be with everyone.
They loved throwing hay around.
And we did get to try carmel apples :)
After that the kids wore of their energy by chasing each other around and around and around. Ellie, Logan and Wally had a great time running all around.
Just before we headed home we took the hay ride through the orchards and tried some crab apples. Here is cute little Tabs trying them out.
So no apples but a great time spent with family and friends!
