Halloween 2012

 Brent was a solider this year for Halloween.

 Anna was Little Bo Peep. . .though I am not sure she even knows who that is, she just liked the dress.

 For Halloween we went to the Church for trunk or treat, but since it was raining we did it inside the building.  This was my room that I decorated and the pumpkin the kids and I carved.  The pumpkin won 1st place. . .but that was also because it was the only pumpkin.  I am still proud of it! :)

Ellisa's 31st Birthday

 For my 31st birthday Andrew took me on a trip to the San Juan Islands.  It was perfect!  Sunny and 65 degrees for all three days we were there.  We spent the afternoon at a spa when we first got there and then ate at the above restaurant which was delicious and beautiful!

 There were lots of little shops and historical sites to see.  It was super relaxing and fun!

 We went on a 3 hour kayak trip. . .unfortunately it was off season so we did not get to see much wild life.  Only the seals below, some bald eagles, starfish and jelly fish.  I will have to come again during peak season so I can see the whales.

On our last day we circled the island and found this lighthouse.  It would have made a perfect ending to this fabulous trip, except while we were here I received a call from Brent's school and found out he was knocked out at school and had a concussion.  Needless to say it was a stressful end to a wonderfully relaxing trip.  Brent is ok, he had to stay the night in the hospital, but that seemed to be the worst of it.
