trick or treat

Bates Nut Farm
Happy Halloween!
Brick or treat at Legoland.
This one LOVES to trick or treat. I think this weekly trick or treating at Legoland has created a monster. He asks to go trick or treating everyday. It actually is really nice especially if you remember to fill your coffee thermos with beer. The line seems to move much faster that way. Last night he slept with his trick or treat stash. Tony is a little worried we may have a hoarder on our hands since he did not eat one piece. He likes to save it.
I did it. The San Francisco Nike Womens Half Marathon. 2 hours and 36 minutes. Not bad considering a 10+ minute bathroom line at mile 3 and the 3+ miles of hills we had to run ( in the rain I might add for part of the race). I loved the course ( with the exception of the steep inclines) and hope to make it an annual tradition. For the San Diegans, it was the equivalent to running up Torrey Pines multiple times. The finishers necklace from Tiffany's was a great perk. Hopefully I get picked for the lottery to enter next year.

The Cardiff Kook- I prefer seeing this version of him any day. Maybe I am a little slow at sharing our summer with everyone but I will get there. I found this picture while I was checking to see if I could find our Vegas trip photos. ( still not found- I will keep checking memory cards) . I really don't think running 8 miles to visit the shark gobbled kook over the summer counts as fun but it made me smile.
You know you have issues when a quarter of your sons birthday party budget was consumed by purchasing fabric. I have been having so much fun utilizing all of it. I won't comment on actually how much fabric I purchased but I will give you a hint. Multiply my age times two and add a few yards and that is how many yards of fabric of tool/ construction fabric we own. Scary.
