Farmer's Market

This is definitely the prettiest market bag EVER!!! Knitting is fun but far from easy. It takes a lot of planning and more time than anyone could recoup from a paycheck. 

THANK YOU MOM for this adorable, raving mad bag!!!!!!!!

HALLOWEEN

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate

The first one said, "Oh my, it's getting late!"

The second one said, "There are witches in the air."

The third one said, "Well I don't care."

The fourth one said, "Let's run and run and run."

The fifth one said, "That's Halloween fun."

Whoooo went the wind and out went the light,

And five little pumpkins rolled out of sight.

The festivities began with a visit to the Kohala Pumpkin Patch on the north end of the Big Island.
Lotus' entire class so enjoyed the hay ride, corn maize, and picking out their own pumpkins.

 Lotus and her friend Ginger trying with much difficulty to find just the right pumpkin.

 Lotus and Ginger holding hands as they entered the corn maize.

 The final pick!!!

These three pics are such telling photos about personalities....

 First pigtails!

We met many friends for a treating trek around a coastal neighborhood...so much fun for the kids!

A group shot along the shore. Aila and Joe didn't make it in this one. Mostly to show the beauty of how lucky they are to be out in such terrific weather this time of year.

And you are probably asking, 'where the heck did those peanuts come from?' Well, our local bulk food place, Cost U Less is selling them so couldn't resist buying a container.

Party continues with a birthday bash back along the shoreline. Elijah's teacher was able to come to. She is in the blue dress. Lotus to the right trying to keep warm with her friend Ella.

Aila is sure she would love to eat whatever that is in Lotus' bowl (brownie and ice cream). In another few years, maybe!
