We had a Pumpkin Patch date with Kristin, Sammy, Elise, Angie and Haley. Why I didn't take any with all the kids is beyond me.
With Haley
While Sammy was on her fall break, we went to the zoo.
For Halloween, we had Tinkerbell and Peter Pan
Aunt Pam's house was our first stop
Elijah really liked trick or treating!
We definitely missed Daddy trick or treating with us!
Last but not least, a few pictures that Blain took.
We miss him like crazy! He's been gone two months now. We are counting down until R&R! If it's still when he requested, we have about 5 months to go. The kids are doing well. Elijah is talking a lot more than he was when Blain left. And he has started throwing fits. Fun times! He'll be 20 months old on Sunday. Four months until our baby turns TWO. Absolutely crazy! Makayla is doing great. She is still going to preschool at the YMCA. I'm having a bit of a hard time knowing that in just a few months, I will be registering her for big kid school.
We hope you are all doing well! I'll try not to let two months go between posts again. :)

Thunderbirds and the Bishop Museum
The Thunderbirds came to Hawaii back in September. Makayla, Elijah & I met the McIntosh family at Hickam Air Force Base to watch the amazing show!
The Thunderbirds performed one maneuver that they ended up making a heart. They did this for the families with deployed family members. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a picture of the whole thing.
Another day, the kids & I met Lisa, Will & Drew at the Bishop Museum to check out the dinosaur exhibit. I was expecting bones not dinosaurs that moved and roared. Will & Drew loved it! Makayla was scared out of her mind and Elijah didn't seem to care one way or the other. :D
The boys... Mak didn't want her photo taken

Saying "See ya later" and Mak's birthday
Well... we have survived week one of the deployment! :D We miss Blain like crazy but we are doing really well. We have a made a deployment paper chain (one paper link for everyday Daddy is gone and every night we tear one off) and the kids have their Daddy Dolls (www.hugahero.com).
For what we thought was going to be Blain's last night at home, we went up to Haleiwa to Pizza Bob's for dinner. Unfortunately, Makayla was being a stinker and wouldn't have her picture taken but I did get a good one of Elijah with Daddy.
He was supposed to leave the next day but the airplane broke. We got one extra day with him but that also meant getting up at 2am.
Blain, we miss you and love you and are counting down the weeks until we see you again!
Two days after Daddy left, Makayla turned FOUR!

The kids and I met the McIntosh family at Chuck E Cheese for lunch. I think a good time was had by all. Thank you Lisa, Travis, Will & Drew for sharing the day with us!
Eli & Drew
After lunch, we came back home and I let Mak open some birthday presents that had been held back from her party. Daddy left her a special card that he recorded a message in and she absolutely LOVES it!!!
Wednesday, we got a special surprise! Makayla and I got matching flowers from Blain. So sweet of him. Mak wanted to take a picture of hers.
And this is what happens when a certain little girl leaves her chocolate pudding within reach of a certain little boy.
We hope everyone is doing well!!!
