While I recovered, I slept.

A Bridal Shower.....
Since Syd is officially engaged and getting married in December(to Cy)....
We decided to throw her a bridal shower. Kort and I just did the decorations. We went all out as you can tell. We even made her a cute little kitchen utensil "cake". Thank you pintrest. Syd got a ton of great stuff. It's weird that she'll be married soon.
On December 28th she'll be Syd Okazaki (I really hope I spelled that right.)
We're very excited for her. Even if we have to leave for Vegas the day after Christmas in order to be a part of the joyous occasion.
John took their engagement pictures. Here are a couple of his 'artsy' favorites. Once again...he did a great job!

Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to the spunkiest and happiest 2 year old I know!
Emmie is such a light in our family. She's so happy and excited about everything (well, most things, unless it's something that she doesn't like.) She's so bright and energetic. It's just her personality. It always has been. I need to be a little more like her.
She's a dramatic little girl. She's easily offended if she gets in trouble. She's bossy. Especially with her babies and Owen. She's always saying, "No! No! Owee!" And we love her for it.
She's easily scared. Currently she's afraid of one of our puppy stuffed animals and the dark. And I love the way she says, "Scawy, dowk, scawy." She might be using this as a ploy to get out of bed however, the jury is still out on that one.
She loves Owen and Ainsley. She's always so excited for them to get home from school.
For a 2 year old I think she's pretty obedient. Of course she often says no. But I'm amazed at how many times she says, "Alright mommy." Plus it's adorable.
Her favorite shows are Martha Speaks, aka: the puppy yow, (weird, right?) and Cinderella.
Her best friends are Suzanna and Elsie (Nanna and Elwie).
We all love her so much. And so does everyone that meets her. She's just a lovable person. It must be because her happiness is contagious!

Family Pictures
We headed out for some updated family pictures last week. Just to increase the craziness that surrounds Halloween. The photoshoot was super fast, due to short attention spans. But I think we got a a few keepers. 








Now if we can just figure out how to get the colors of our edited photos to match the color of the photos printed at Costco I'll be a happy camper.
Halloween
Our Halloween was a success this year. We had 2 scary vampires and a bat.
Ains lucked out and got to borrow an incredible handmade dress (made by my talented friend Karalenn...who so graciously brought the dress with her on a flight from New York).
Owen got more candy than any child should ever get on Halloween. I offered to buy the kids candy, he refused. And then went and got his money and offered to buy his sisters. Smart kid.
Emmie soon discovered a love for Halloween when realized that people were just giving her candy for no particular reason. Needless to say she got the hand of trick-or-treating quickly.
