Cornerstone Church Treasures ‘n Treats 2010

We went to our church’s Treasures ‘n Treats for Halloween again this year.

Katie liked to show off her scary face.

She needed little introduction to the game and candy stations.

Poor Bob.  He’s such a nice guy, but Katie wanted nothing to do with his Tootsie Roll costume.

The men’s group BBQed and everyone had a nice time fellowshipping with friends and family.

Abbie arrived later in the evening and Katie was thrilled.

But nothing was as much fun as the bounce house.

Eventually she made it to the back half and even climbed up to the slide.

Boo at the Zoo

We attended “Boo at the Zoo”, the Santa Ana Zoo’s Halloween event for the first time this year.  Katie loves the zoo, and especially loved going in her Minnie Mouse dress and spending time with Abbie.

PCH Pumpkin Patch

Katie got to have all sorts of fun at the pumpkin patch on PCH again this year.

Grandma came too!

Jordache model or two-year-old?

”Something over there looks interesting.”

”Ehh…maybe not”.

So many expressions, so little time.

We love this one!

Pony rides have become one of her favorite activities.

At the end of the day, Katie insisted she wanted to go down the big slide.  Julie tells me she hit the boundary at the bottom, became scared, and cried for a while.  Oh, and she’s not so sure about trying it again either.

I can imagine why.  That’s a big slide for such a little girl.  Katie’s proving to be our little daredevil though, so I’m not surprised she wanted to try this.  In fact, I’m quite proud of her.  Later that night she told us that she didn’t want to do it again.  No matter.  I’m just proud that she wanted to give it a shot.

Keep trying those new experiences, Katie.  Mommy and Daddy will always be there for you to pick you up, dust you off, and get you ready for your next great adventure.
