Halloween Time





























On Tuesday Oct. 12th we went to Mickey's Halloween Party at Disneyland. Right when Avanti got out of school we drove straight there. Both the kids were pirates. No one in the entire park had Kennedy's costume and only one girl had Avanti's costume. My favorite part of the event was the haunted mansion. OMG, they decorated and made it look so good. You feel like you're in the Nightmare before Christmas. The event was great. No lines for the rides and lots and lots of yummy candy. We only did about 1/4 of the trick or treating and had over 4 full bags of candy. Kennedy's favorite part of the event was the Halloween parade. He was so excited to see all his favorite disney characters. Avanti loved the dancing and pirates. Her favorite ride is Pirates of the Carribean. Kennedy's is the merry go round and small world.
It was so funny. We went to take pictures with the Disney villans and when it was our turn Avanti was so serious. I think she thought they were real or something because she was so still and just looking at the camera she wouldnt look at them in the face. We took pictures with Melificent, the evil queen and Jafar.
The whole park looks super cute and festive. The fall is one of my favorite seasons. It was our second year going and I think it will be a yearly thing. New tradition for us.
bye for now.

Barba Weekend

This weekend was my cousins wedding. Chicol has been like a brother to me. Every year when I use to go to Mexico, Chicol and his bro Fernando use to all play together, go to water parks and just have fun. I was the only girl but they always made me laugh. A few years ago, he moved to the States and now he's married. I just met his wife Yuri a day before the wedding. She's so nice. I'm so happy for the both of them. Their wedding was a lot of fun and we had a nice weekend. We went to the Wild Animal park and ended up getting the pass. It a nice Barba weekend. Congratulations Chicol and Yuri. We love you.

Open Auditions




As you all know, Avanti auditioned last year for the Nutcracker and got a part as a mouse. This year, she auditioned and also got a part! She will be a bon-bon. We are so proud of our little ballerina. This Fall we wont have any free Saturdays because of dance class and rehearsals but it's all worth it when we see her up on stage. The show this year is on Sunday, December 12th.
