Boo to you

Halloween was awesome this year.  Mom made Grandma, Grandpa, and my costume this year and it was a huge hit!  We went as Yo Gabba Gabba.... For those of you out of the loop here is a picture of them.  It is one of my favorite tv shows on Nick Jr. 
We went to a halloween spot that was suppose to have storyteller characters and princesses.  But when we got there the line was so long, plus we got mobbed.  All these people walked up to us asking to have there picture taken with us, I am not kidding!  So we went to the mall and more of the same happened there.   Grandpa was the star of the show, him and grandma were yelling "Yo Gabba Gabba" and waving to all the kids.  Then  a mall security officer told Grandpa he had to take his box mask off, so that ended that.  But man we were superstars for a brief moment! 


Kai was a transformer and Mya was a beautiful witch!  They got lots of candy and we all were so tired when we got home.

The circus is in town

No this is not a family gathering, a real circus came to town.  It was AWESOME and hot.  Cole Bros. circus actually has a big top with animals, acrobats all under one hot sweaty tent.  Guess that is there way to make sure you buy a lot of frosty drinks! 

Kai and Mya came too.  We got to see elephants, and camels..


Then they brought out this HUGE Cannon and shot a guy right out of it.  Poor Grace was sleeping and it woke her right up.  You can imagine she wasn't too happy.  Especially since she woke up that morning with PINK EYE... yuck. 
During intermission we started to goof around, here are our funny faces...

While we were making our funny faces, dad ran out to get us a funnel cake.  Aunt Patricia thought hmmm funnel cake that sounds good, so dad offered her his and ran out to get another one.  He made a pit stop and when he came out to get the second funnel cake the vender had closed up.  The show had started again, he came back to the seats, and Aunt Patricia, Mya and I had eaten all the funnel cake.  We then savored every last morsel of the powdered sugar.. yummo  Dad the cake was good thanks!

Whoa I caught me a Marlin!!

Well a little brim at GG's and Gramps house in Lake Okeechobee.  Back in September Gramps (great grandpa) celebrated his birthday.  Our whole family was their to sing Happy Birthday to him.  After cake we all went out fishing in their canal. 


It was awesome, all 4 of us great grandkids caught fish.  We had four generations all on the same seawall, Grandpa D says he has pictures of mommy fishing in the same spot when she was my age!  Can you believe that mommy was my age, I don't believe it, I think she has always been old and my mommy. 

Grace got into the action too.  In fact she grabbed the fishing pole right away, Gramps said she was a natural. 





Mya and Kai loved to catch the fish with their daddy.  Uncle Scott looking good with the hair! 





Gramps taught me everything I know about fishing. I tried to tell him that I would have better luck trying to spear the fish with the rod, but he showed me the ropes on how it is suppose to work.  After all he is an experienced fisherman. 



After my lesson with Gramps, I helped daddy catch a fish, I had to show him how it was done.  He needed a little help, after all I am now an experienced fisherman.  Thanks Gramps! 



After fishing we took a little bike break and Grandpa started to dance with us when the Wiggles came on.  Shake what your momma gave ya! 

It was an awesome birthday party, we can't wait to have cake and do some more fishing.
