I went trick or treating for the first time tonight! It was so much fun – I said “trick-or-treat” and “thank you” to everyone. Paige came too, but like me for the past two years (here’s me in ‘05 and ‘06) she just hung out in the stroller. After 5 houses I told mom and dad I was done…next year I’ll try to do more:>

Today at dads work they had a Ya-Boo Halloween Parade and Party. They gave us a Halloween bag with a pumpkin flashlight and a balloon! There were tons of kids there! I even went in the big jumper and climbed up a dragons mouth but I wouldn’t go in the tunnel:> They also had arts and crafts for us! What a day! We will update you on our trick or treating adventure. I have been practicing what I am going to say:>

Our friend Trevor was there..his mommy works at Yahoo! too.

All Paige wanted to do was eat the plastic table cloth!

Yeasterday night we had a 5.6 earthquake! However since dad was in New York we were at Gram and Paps house in Turlock. But we still felt the quake there! (Paige and I were asleep and didn’t wake up) We came back to our house this morning and everything was fine!
Thank you to all of you who have e-mailed and called us. We are ok and hope we don’t feel another one for a long time!!!

Baby Mathilda arrived on Thursday at 2am to her mommy Kirsten and daddy Mike! She is 6 pounds 15 ounces! We are so excited you are here and can’t wait to meet you!

As if having a neighborhood Halloween parade wasn’t enough we also had a neighborhood Chili Cook-Off on Sunday! Dad made his famous chili and I got to help. My job was pushing the “loud buttons” on the blender! Dad didn’t win but to us his chili is ALWAYS number 1!!!!

Yes, we have had a busy weekend! But a FUN Halloween filled weekend. On Sunday afternoon Lizzy had a Halloween Party! We had a great time and she even had a pumpkin pinata!!!!

This weekend we had our neighborhood Halloween Parade! We had a great time. Both sets of grandparents came and my Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Nelson. Aunt Colleen and Neil also came to join in the fun! Thank you everyone for coming and spending the day with us!

This is what I typically look like after a meal:>

We met Lizzy at a great park today. It had a water area where you could push this button and water would come shooting out! I had a great time..I love water!
