Warm October Evening

Cookies

Sierra (and her mommy) invited us over to make and decorate cookies yesterday. The girls had so much fun. Here is Sierra sampling the finished product...

Kidspace Children's Museum

Rubie wanted to go somewhere today, so we hopped in the car and drove out to the children's museum in Pasadena.




Here she is watering their garden. She thinks the water is supposed to come out of the top, so she just dumps the water out. Poor vegetables.

They have a river and pond that the kids get to play in...

Petting a Madagascar Hissing Cockroach (named Maddie) - yikes...

Rainy Day in October

Beach

We had nothing to do today, so Rubie and I drove out to the beach. I expected it to be chilly, but it was great weather (well, no sun - but other than that, warm). We started at the pier...


Then we walked down to the water and played in the sand...




I couldn't even get her to get her feet wet - usually, she won't stay away from the water...

Airplane Driver

Rubie: I'm gonna be a airplane driver.
Mommy: That is called a pilot.
Rubie: Yeah, I'm gonna be a pirate ship driver, too.

Pumpkin Patch 2009

We went to the AWESOME pumpkin patch that was recommended by Katie and Kelly. We LOVED it. It is definitely a place we will go to every year.

Rubie is waiting in line to ride a pony. She rode "Angel."
