Hakola Annual Halloween Party

Every year for Halloween (for the last three years) we have attended the Hakola Annual Halloween Party. It is something we look forward to every year. There is lots of great company, food, and entertainment. Many people we only see at the annual party.

This year Reuben and I were trying to figure out a humorous costume for me to wear with my large pregnant belly. We came up with a Pregnant Geisha and he was the Samurai. Both of us already had most of the pieces for the costumes, it was just the finishing touches to add to them.

We had a wonderful time at the party, as always. It was great to hang out with everyone. I look forward to it again next year!

Pumpkin Patch

Reuben and I went to the Rasmussen farms again to search for our pumpkins. For whatever reason, we were drawn to the perfectly round ones (I wonder why). We found a big round daddy pumpkin, a round mamma pumpkin, and a little perfect baby one. We also found one that looked like a skull shape.

I love fall for all the beautiful colors. We plan to carve them tomorrow.

Baby Bump Session FIVE

Monthly "Baby Bump" Session 5 - October 9, 2009
Photos taken by Sylvia Flores

This month we decided to take more photos of my ever growing belly. It was a wonderful experience working with Sylvia and Reuben to get some wonderful shots.

Evelyn is growing so fast. We are now into our 30th week. I love to play “hide and seek” with Evelyn. She will push her foot out and I will find it and push her back. Then she moves her foot and I find it again. It is so wonderful to know this little girl is growing inside of me. It is such a miracle!

I love how my relationship with Reuben is growing every day just as our little Evelyn is growing. What a blessing it is to have them both in my life!
