Happy Halloween

We had a great Halloween this year.  Irelyn finally decided on a costume- she fell in love with this Sweetheart Bat as soon as she saw it.  She won the fangs and added those last minute :)

Whoa it's been a while!

Where have I been? 
I'll tell you-  at the end of August I decided to go back to work teaching.  I teach MWF and it has been so great.  I'm also coaching Irelyn's Electric Eels soccer team this year.  But where was I in July and August- vacation!  We had the best summer.  We didn't go on any big trips but it was wonderful not having a schedule :)
July activities-
Irelyn went to soccer camp- we even got to have a house guest for the week which Irelyn loved
Art class
VBS at church
we didn't really get to the beach because the weather was cool
San Diego for the weekend to visit my brother's family
Sawdust Festival in Laguna Beach
the OC fair
Disneyland a lot
August activities-
the beach- lots of bonfires
tons of swimming
San Diego for 3 days- just us.  It was great :)

And here we are now...in October.  Time flies!  The weather here has been amazing lately.  Hot, and I mean 100 degrees hot.  And then we had 3 days of rain.  Love it!

So, around here we are getting ready for Halloween...Irelyn's ideas for a costume: a witch, the solar system, a fashionista, or ?  I can't keep up with this girl!  Every year she changes her mind over and over...it must have something to do with the fact that she changed clothes 4 times today. after school. after the party. before dinner. before going to the neighbors.

Have a fabulous weekend!
