Trick or Treating

What a fun Halloween weekend we had, first Joey's birthday party, then a neighborhood party, then Sunday night trick or treating with some of the neighborhood kids. Christina and mommy were pirates, Dad was a cross between a pimp and a pirate (he was all pirate till he put his hat on, which I thought looked like a pimp hat), and Joey was from Star Wars. Here are the pictures

Joey's 4th Birthday Party

We had Joey's 4th birthday party at a place called Catch Air, it had just opened and is owned by some friends/old neighbors of ours. What fun we had !! About 10 kids and their parents showed up, I stayed up the night before till 12:30 making Joey's scuba diver cake and learned the importance of having the correct tips to fit the icing tubes.
