Aloha and Happy Halloween!

Aloha and Happy Halloween from Kiera the Hula Girl! 

Thanks Mimi and Papa for the awesome souvenir. 

It was a chilly, rainy night so Kiera had to

trade her flip flops for rain boots!

There was a Duck Tape Brand Assembly at my school.

Here's a shot of me in my "costume" and Duck!

Pumpkin Carving 2014

Twas the night before Halloween and the pumpkin was carved, 

not a creature was stirring, only a skeleton! 

So proud of her design; she'd been planning it since the day we

bought the pumpkin

 Who is going to clean the pumpkin?

 It was a team effort, but Dave did most of the work!

 My job was to photograph and then clean the pumpkin

 Then it was time to shake "dem bones!"

 No photo shoot is complete unless Brookie is involved!

 Then it happened, the perfect combination of twirl and 

photo click! Shockingly cool hair!

 Happy Halloween Eve from the Kettes!

Date Night with Dad

Kiera and Dave had a "Date Night" this week while I was at school for parent teacher conferences. They went to Sherwin Williams for a Halloween Craft Night. Dave snapped this adorable pic before they left...Which version do you like best? 

Here are a few pictures from the fun at Sherwin Williams...

Kiera's pumpkin is the one closest to the blue paint swatch.

Creek Walking

Kiera and I made an impromptu stop at the park. She and grandpa discovered a creek behind Clague Playground and she's been dying to go back ever since! She was still in her school clothes but that didn't stop her; she slipped off her jumper and I let her go in the creek with her school tennis shoes. This girl loves nature!
