Happy Halloween

Just a quick post to wish everyone a Happy Halloween! Guess what Owen and I dressed up as...

Mama made both our costumes. Here we were trick-or-treating with Braden near our house.

I'll tell you more later. Time for me to go to bed and rest up for another adventure tomorrow.

Oops, forgot to write about Uncle Greg's birthday and what we did 2 weekends ago...

Anyway, happy belated birthday Uncle Greg! We had a party at the beach where Alana's grandma cooked lots and lots of great food and we all went swimming in the water.


Here he is blowing out the candles on his cake. It was yummy!

After his party we went to Dayton's house for his 4th birthday. He had birthday hats and a bouncy house.


We like wearing silly hats


So does Dayton!

Happy belated birthday Dayton!

The next day we went out to a kids festival at the Bishop Museum, or as I like to call it, the museum with the scary robot dinos. I wouldn't go near the dinos but we still had lots of fun.


Aki enjoying orange creamsicle


We got to try the fire hose out


And drive the fire truck


And eat cupcakes

Later Aki had a haircut, her first one in 5 months.


Mommy only cut the back though.

I think she should make it like my one from when I was her age!

Alana and Maile visit

More friends came to visit us this week. It was Alana and Maile, our friends we saw at the end of our long car ride in July!

We met up with them at Braden's new house. He has a pool.

Alana's father fed all of us

On Tuesday we got to go to the North Shore for the first time


Aki enjoying the sand. Me and mama enjoying the view...

Aki got to test out her new baby floaty thing


And we got the check out the fishies

After cleaning up we drove up the coast to find a shrimp truck but instead of the shrimp truck we ate at a shrimp hut that Alana's aunty and uncle like.


Nice and cool under the shade


I enjoyed the garlic shrimp.

I actually ate the shrimp bodies, not just the fried tails, which I usually like. And I took some from Alana's grandma too. Too bad Alana and Maile were sleeping!

Today is a party for Uncle Greg at the beach. Tell you about it later...

UH-Fresno State football game

Last weekend we finished Daddy's birthday celebration by taking him to a football game. The team wearing green (my favorite color) was playing the team in red (my second favorite color).

We rode the bus to the stadium and had great seats, thanks to mommy. They were really close to the field!

Once we reached our seats, we were able to start enjoying the game--which started with enjoying our food!


Here we are downing the last order of garlic fries in the stadium

Then it started raining. First it rained a little bit. Then it rained a little more. Then more and more until we had to leave our seats to go hide under cover. Of course, wherever I say "raining", daddy says can replace that by "Fresno State scoring touchdowns."

And then it started really raining, as in water falling from the sky. This was when mommy and daddy weren't so excited about how close we were to the field and how far we had to walk up to the covered area while it was raining.


It wasn't all bad though--the rain gave us a chance to eat fried saimin


And splash in puddles

In the end, I don't remember too much about the game except for eating fries and fried saimin and riding on the shuttle bus. But we had fun anyway. Maybe next time an indoor game?

Emmy and I Visit Pearl Harbor

Last week, Emmy and her family came all the way from Boston to visit me!

To celebrate, we went to Pearl Harbor.

I got to sit on this thing

And climb into the submarine tower

And go on a boat ride with Emmy

And our parents and baby sisters were there too

Later, after lunch, we all drove to our house. Because Emmy and I don't nap any more, we got to play while the babies slept.

Emmy and I played Hannah Montana. I played the role of "My Husband."

Walk over here, My Husband!

Too bad we didn't get to play together much more! I guess we have to go back to Boston to visit them there!

Daddy's birthday

Before I tell you about daddy's birthday, here's a picture of me and Aki before swim class. Our class is 2 hours after we finish school, so mommy and daddy have to keep us entertained. We like to go to the playground at the school by swim school.


We race down the slide

Ok, so now on to daddy's birthday. When we woke up, I ate birthday cupcakes that Mama baked for us.


Healthy and nutritious carrot cake

That night we went out to dinner and Aki and I were on our best behavior. Too bad there's no pictures of us being good!


Then last weekend we had a little party at our house for daddy. Here's some of the food we got to eat! I liked the frosting on that cake the best. Thanks, Aunty Kiyomi!

Some of daddy's high school friends came over


Kenton came too. He's not one of daddy's high school friends. He's Aunty Shellie's nephew.

Because we were so inspired by daddy's presents, I decided that it was time to write our letters to Santa. Mommy helped us write them.

Mine says, "Dear Santa, For Christmas I would like a Lego Percy. And a big green train when it's another Christmas night-maybe next year. Love, NEWO"

Aki's says, "Dear Santa, I would like a purple train for Christmas. Love, Aki" I might have helped her on that one.


Maybe I need to also ask for some pajama pants
