Disney presents... the most famous couple

It seemed that Halloween this year just passed us by. 

No preparations...nothing! I did not bought any costume but thanks to my sis in law, Sab, I didn't need to shell out some cash for a costume this year.

Kimi and Kenzo did Mickey and Minnie this year and opted for Trick or Treating at Brentwood Mall.

Kenzo finally relented and wore the hat (most of the time)... he was so happy to see a Thomas costume and a Disney Cars costume. Turns out that Disney car was someone from his trial Eurhytmic class.

Under the Big Top

We spent our Friday night at Willingdon Church. They had an event entitled Under the Big Top which let the kids wear costumes and do trick and treat, little booth games and a magic show inside a safe and indoor environment. 

* Ticket to the Big Top Event

It did not occur to me that costumes are encouraged and I dressed the kids in Fall outfit. It was good because they were coordinated anyway for their photo session.

* Colors of Fall

Even from afar, Kimi found the man with the yellow hat from his favorite TV show, Curious George. We asked for a picture and lo and behold, he got Curious George with him- LOL!

Kenzo, on the other hand, was being pushed in his stroller, to and from each booth watching his older sister get loot candies for him to munch on...

Trick or Treat 2011- Brentwood Mall

It was a very busy day for me today. I went in early for work to get my late afternoon open for an early trick or treat with the kids.

After picking up Kimi from school, we proceeded to Brentwood Mall to do the Trick or Treat which started at 4pm. We arrived just in time for us to get into Trick or Treat as soon as we entered. 

I am so happy to say that Kenzo finally agreed to let me put the head part of the costume on him. It was a cookie that got him distracted and he forgot that the head part was already on top of his head... Yey! 

I forgot the SLR camera though and had to make do with a compact camera. Good Luck in taking action photo with a slow clicking cam :( This is the reason for the motions in majority of the pictures.

* Train for Halloween

$ 3.50 / ride

Kenzo got right into the candies in the bucket game. He forgot how bulky his costume is and started going up into the counters to ask for his treats. He went so far as to copy and give candies to the ones giving him candies. Haha!

* Cute Doggy on the loose...

It was hard to do a lot of pictures with all the excitement but of course, I got my fair share of pictures to remember this event.

* Kenzo decides to walk out on a photo op with the mask lady

* With my babies

I was hoping to get a shot of the nice setup but my hubby obviously loves the fence more than the decor.

* Confident in his doy attire

* Replenishing his pail again

Hubby kept on getting the candies for safe keeping while Kenzo keeps on looking on his pail wondering why his bucket's candy disappears every so often.

* My little Princess

* Moment between the sibling

* Gimme some more sweets!

* Kin's Pumpkin patch picture with the babies

Hubby decided to meet us at the mall. He came straight from the office.

Two old friends, meet again...

Heidi is an old friend of mine. We attended the same college but became friends when we became co-workers at Dexterton Corporation (then Dexterton Industrial Corporation). Both of us graduated Interior Design and was given the still new furniture category to look after. We had the whole 6th floor to ourselves and I was a witness to the courtship between Adrian and Heidi which eventually led to marriage. They now have two beautiful daughters. She was as well a witness and some sort of a bridge to me and my hubby, Karl. Heidi is actually a very good friend of mine even after I resigned from work.

 I was also the Maid of Honor in their wedding back in 2006.

* This was me and Karl  during Heidi and Adrian`s Wedding -November 14, 2006

* Mel and Heidi :) 2006

Gown: Larry Espinosa

 She is Kimi`s godmother also (2008).

* Outside Mary the Queen Church: 

(L-R) Joy, Heidi, Karl, Kimi, Mel, Ciara, Hannah- May 05, 2008

The first meeting took place between our daughters, Aimee and Kimi last January 2009

* Aimee, Heidi, Mel and Kimi- January 04, 2009

Heidi and I have a lot in common. We have the same moral and I guess think in the same wavelength. I love talking to her and she gives really good and practical advice. One more thing we have in common is that we marry same year and the gap between our two kids is almost 2 years. Heidi gave birth September 2007 and 2009. I, on the other hand, gave birth December 2007 and 2009. Heidi`s second daughter is my goddaughter.
