3 Men and a Baby!

Happy Halloween!

Trick or treat!  Mimi and Pampa arrived just in time for spooky fun. This year, the theme was "Under the Sea."  Again, we did our costumes by hand and on a total budget...so what you see, is what you get :)  Millie is the mermaid, Esmee is a lobster, Mimi and Mom are fish , daddy is a shark and Pampa is the fisherman.  We had friends and neighbors over for a party at our place...it was a great evening!!

Fox Hollow Farm

Yesterday, Jodi and I took Emmett, Anya, Millie and Esmee to Fox Hollow Farm, in Issaquah...about a 40 minute drive east of the city.  The weather could not have been more perfect...a beautiful, sunny, fall NW day...a 10.  We instantly fell in love with this amazing, family-owned farm....absolutely breath-taking!  We felt like we were personal guests...they were so welcoming.  There were animals walking around for us to interact with; pigs, horses, chickens, kittens, rabbits...electric-powered 4 wheelers for the kids to explore the farm, a hay maze, rope swing, train (Esmee's favorite), pony rides (Millie's favorite), a fire pit to roast s'mores (so cool), peacocks, bouncy castles...even a creek to watch the salmon spawn.  They thought of everything!  The leaves were at their peak of amazing colors!  It was the perfect way to spend a fall afternoon in preparation for Halloween, with great friends!  Jodes and I are ready to ditch the city and make an offer on this farm....we felt right at home!!
