Little Pumpkins

I've fallen a bit behind on posts lately. I've really meant to keep up but life has been more chaotic lately than usual. Aside from it being the busiest time at work for Michael and me, we just bought a new house:

And our current house goes on the market tomorrow. Phew!

It's probably appropriate to start catching up with some of the most recent activity around our house, starting with Halloween! First, a trip to the pumpkin patch:

As for costumes, we somehow ended up with a blonde fairy tale theme at our house this year, with Avery opting to go as Rapunzel and Chloe as Goldilocks -- complete with the three bears. Chloe wasn't too excited at first ...

But by the end of the night they both were trick-or-treating like champs. Chloe even ended up with a stuffed black cat decoration from a woman who simply wouldn't settle for Michael's insistence we had enough candy already.

And now for a few days of relaxing on the beaches of Waikiki. Ahhhh....er, um, Alohhhaaaaa...
