Walk to Remember

Today was the annual Walk to Remember. It's a day where parents who have lost a baby get together and there is a ceremony/program and we do a short walk and then we release balloons in remembrance. It's a pretty neat thing.

Here's 'Aulani's balloon.

And Emma's artwork on the balloon

They gave Conner a balloon too because Emma was holding 'Aulani's. He popped it soon after, of course

Family pictures and of course the kids aren't really looking

A view of the people that came

Emma holding the balloon

And giving it a kiss

Going on the walk

Balloons that were released. It was pretty neat to watch them float away

Black Island Farms

Today we went to Black Island Farms to get our pumpkins. The kids had a lot more fun this year than they did last year.

First we did the tractor ride to get the pumpkins

Then we stopped and picked out some pumpkins

Then we went back on the tractor ride to bring our pumpkins back

On the way back we saw a deer. You can't really see it in the picture but it is there.

Posing with the pumpkins and this year they're not even crying!

After we put our pumpkins in the car we went back and the kids played on the bouncy house (which they didn't really like) and then they went on the slides which they did like.

Then they went on the tire swings

Then we went home.

Going to the Park

Today the kids picked out their outfits all by themselves. Emma chose to be Miss Sparklicious. She chose a sparkly skirt, cardigan, and shoes. It was pretty cute.

And Conner chose everything red

They loved going on the teeter-totter. Although it was kind of hard for me because they couldn't really do it by themselves.
