Concert

Sunday night we took Luke to see Brandon Flowers in Seattle at the Showbox.  For those that don't know he is the lead singer of The Killers (the 1st concert we took Luke to last year), and he's out on a solo tour.  I LOVE the Killers, so I was a bit saddened  when I heard he was hitting the road solo.  However Luke convinced me to get his cd...I liked every song!  We heard he was heading this way got, our $25 tickets and went.
When we saw The Killers, they played at the WAMU in Seattle, it's bigger than the Showbox (this I did not know until last night).   So knowing we would be standing, I wanted to be as near to the stage as possible, the doors opened at 7 (we were in line in the rain at 6:30 with maybe 100 people, the rest showed up closer to 9), stood for an hour inside until the opening act came and then FINALLY at 9 Brandon Flowers...I was tired (way past my bedtime) and we had to drive back to Wenatchee after, but it was AWESOME.

Testing the camera to make sure our flash was not on!

This is without zooming...we were that close!

Perfect Fall Days

It's that time of year again.  Pulling out soup recipes, heating hot cider and raking leaves!
This summer Logan went to a 4 day workshop the museum puts on, called Kids In the Kitchen.  I was so surprised at all she learned.  I started chopping veggies for the soup and she really wanted to help.  She may very well have more skills in the kitchen than myself!

Birthday Party Fun

Logan recently went to a friends birthday party.  The invitation said it was to be a "spa"day, followed by a fashion show.  Pretty sure it was one of the greatest parties an 8 year old girl could ever go to!
This is how she came home.

I'm back!!!

I was on a brief blogging hiatus...not by choice but because I couldn't log in!  I did explore different blog sites and may decide to venture to a new one...I'll keep you posted!
Finally some photos of the last month!

Luke and B at the Embassy Suites

Cal LOVED swimming with Luke

My Alice in Wonderland on Halloween

The gang is ready

Another successful Halloween in the books!

Never Too Old for a Petting Zoo!

We had the pleasure of watching Cal and Bennett this afternoon.  After my sisters dentist appointment we decided to head to the pumpkin patch at Smallwoods.  Well the pumpkins were a bust..maybe 10 smooshed ones left, but we sure enjoyed the animals, and then a yummy dinner at South!

He really LOVED Luke and we REALLY loved him

Yep..that's my sister driving the bus!

These guys are a little scary...I've been told they spit!

Lo LOVED the Donkey

Cal loved the animals, but wanted to keep a safe distance at all times

This is the wet burrito at SOUTH.  This kid is starting to cost a lot to feed!

A hui hou kakou!

A few shots from our last full day! 

the Polly Pockets enjoyed a day at the beach

Logan took this one...not bad!

I NEVER get tired of this!

Maui No Ka Oi'

As I look over the last few days of pictures I realize they are all the same.  My little Lilo has been a great partner in the ideal Hawaiian vacation!  We settled into a routine, the first day that went something like this; I wake up at 6 have an hour of quite time (and coffee) she wakes up at 7, breakfast on the lanai, hang out, head to the beach around 10,  (Keawakapu is our new favorite, if anyone goes you must get directions from me), head back to the condo for lunch between 1 and 2, head to the pool until 4 or 5, change watch sunset  (6:15)and eat dinner.  BLISS!
