Trunk or Treat 2009

Tonight we went to the annual Trunk or Treat event at the LDS church. It was a lot of fun! The girls got a lot of candy and we gave out a lot of candy. It was great to spend some time with our friends.....

Savannah, Kaitlyn and Gabs

The girls being silly

Taylor, Keegan and Alaina (sorry if I spell anyone's names wrong!)

Maddie and Savannah

The jailbird and her dog.

Gabby fishing for goodies.

Gabby in her bee outfit. She was mad that we made her wear her under armor. In the end it was a good thing as it was FREEZING!

By the pumpkins.

Corey helping Madi put on her mask. Madi was supposed to be a teenage mutant ninja turtle but where is her green shell??

The Cammacks were cute-as usual-all dressed up as the characters from Peter Pan.

Doing the cake walk.

She won a cupcake (which she ended up giving to one of the missionaries).

Ally & Janae as babies.

Late Birthday Celebration

Corey had a late birthday celebration this past Friday night. It was hard to find a time with everyone's busy schedules. Ha-Yoon and Madi came over (Riley was grounded-that naughty girl!). We had pizza then I dropped the girls off at the mini-golf place. Both girls stayed the night although Madi had to leave at 3am because she was driving down to Utah with her family. I'm glad Corey finally was able to have her birthday celebration with her friends.

Time for presents!

Ghosti

Gabby made this pillow-Ghosti-at Activities today. Isn't it cute?

Raking Leaves

It's that time of year again! The leaves are turning and they are a fallin'......


Riley & Corey clearing the street so the storm drains don't overflow.

They did a good job-not a leaf to be found!

Corey's "Wacky Wednesday" outfit for school.......she loves to make a fashion statement.

Corey at School

Corey's friend Riley had these photos on her Facebook so I decided to steal them for my blog. Here are some photos of Corey during "Opportunities" working on yearbook stuff. It's fun to get a glimpse of what goes on when she's at school.

Here she is chillin' (her word) while waiting for yearbook pictures to download.

Hannah & Corey (she looks so serious!)

She is a goofball.

Hunter's Pumpkin Patch

We finally made it to the pumpkin patch!


Corey searching for that "perfect" pumpkin. It is kind of late in the season so we had to really search for good pumpkins.

Scott & Gabby with their spoils.

Scott trying to figure out which pumpkin he wants.

Corey managed to find one pumpkin that met all of her "perfect" criteria.

Gabby & cute painted pumpkins.

Searching out by the barn.

Gabby and one of her small pumpkins.

Gabs in the field.

I wanted Corey to pick this one, but she said it wasn't "perfect" enough. The pumpkin was sad.

The girls as kitty cats.

Magnolia Volksmarch

Despite the wet & windy weather we completed our 10th Volksmarch in the Magnolia area of Seattle today. The drive up there was a bit scary. There was quite a bit of standing water on the freeway, and though we hydroplaned a couple of times, we made it up there safely. The walk was very pretty around the Magnolia neighborhoods. We saw views of the Puget Sound, the Seattle skyline and the Space Needle. There were many really nice homes. Afterwards we had lunch at Red Mill Burgers which had fabulous onion rings & the burgers were yummy also. Our final stop before heading home was Top Pot Doughnuts. Can't forget to include that we saw a Corgi! Not a bad way to spend a rainy Saturday!


At the start-we were all in our rain gear. Gabby's eyes are closed-as usual.
Scott & the girls. Gabby should be a weather girl.

A view of Puget Sound. As you can see it was a typical rainy Seattle day.

Really looks like fall with all those leaves on the ground!

One of the pretty houses we saw. It was more like a mini mansion.

Another pretty house. This was right across the street from the water.

Pretty fall color.

Red Mill Burgers.

Their signature wind mill sign.

Waiting for our food.

Our last stop-doughnuts! They were really good!

More Firebirds Volleyball

Gabby and I went to watch Corey's volleyball team play today against Griffin Middle School. They did great even though they didn't win. Unfortunately I forgot my camera, and though my phone's battery was flashing red, I still managed to get a few pics...much to Corey's chagrin :)


Talking to the coach before the game started.

There's Corey-#24!

The opposing team-in black-filing in.
