Holland Harvest

Last Friday I was tired.  I officially got my lowerst sleep score yet.  A 13!  

Dave and Mark stopped by to help me get all the Halloween stuff to the school and set up the tents. 

We were the first ones there.  Plus we never full practiced this so we weren't sure how it was all going to work.  

Eli and Gwen walked up the scary clown.  



Eva, Gwen and Vicky were big helps.  

We set up the blow up castle and 2 tents.



I took a quick look at the other trunks.  Lots of great ideas!

Here we go!



My video missed it but the pumpkin and clown and spider jump!

It was a hit!  My sister thankfully came to help.  






It was a crazy night.  









They had a dj inside the school and lots of activities.  



And yummy food!



It was a successful night!  Have a great weekend!

Chipping and Putting

Here is a preview of last Thursday.  
After work, I went to the gym.
I worked out with Casey.  
Back at home, Eli and I worked on the Trunk or Treat.  
We practiced blowing things up.  
Then Eli had golf class.  


They did chipping and putting.  


Later that night, Vicky came over and we practiced opening the tents.  
I still wasn't sure how this was all going to come together in one day.

Halloween Plans

Last week was rough.  I'm not going to talk too much about it.  Ariel got some kind of virus and was really sick.  This is Tuesday night and she is thankfully back to herself so there is no reason to relive it here. This was my day last Monday.  We got some Shake Shack!
Aden's Miami Hurricanes are No. 1 in the country!
The leaves are changing!
This was last Tuesday's day.  
I went to the Apple Store.  
Last Wednesday, Eli drew out a plan for the trunk or treat.  He wanted to use the purple castle as the entrance.  Then the white tent then the 2 black tents.  I talk him into using only 2 tents.  

I saw a Tesla Cybercab!

Halloween Haunt at Dorney Park

Last Sunday, I woke up with Stella on me.  
Of course I took her for an early, cold walk.  
Brrrrr
I took the twins to Dorney Park in Allentown.  Eli went in the summer with camp but it was a rainy day and he couldn't go on everything.  He had been begging to go back and that day it worked out.  They are tall enough for all the rides!
Halloween Haunt at Dorney Park
Here we go!
It was pretty quiet so they go on al the rides quickly.  Started with the swings.  


Then this little coaster.  


We had lunch.  The food was decent.  
Then we checked out some more rides.  


There they go!



It was a beautiful day.  It wasn't even that chilly in the sun.  

Noah went on Hydra by himself.  
It was a crazy coaster.

Fun at the gift shop.

We had Chinese for dinner.  
Our day in comics.
