Our trip to China was amazing!I took so many pictures that I am still sorting them and narrowing them to fit into my photo book=) Jeff and I had a wonderful time; it was a once in a lifetime trip that I will never forget. Jeff is a seasoned traveler, but it was my first time out of the country. I was so happy to be able to experience it with him and have him show me everything. The food was to die for- we ate everything from pigeon to pig ear to fish eyeballs. We saw so much- Yellow Mountain has to be the most beautiful place in the world. I mean it was breathtaking and getting to hike 15 miles up and down the mountains was just amazing. We saw a temple with the monks, a historic old town, a cave, and so much more. Everyday was filled with a new adventure. I'm so thankful Jeff took me this time.
Halloween was a week long event this year, as it always is. Cal and I went up to Boo at the Park which was fun. He had his school party which I baked cookies for and went to. Then, we had the Cole's annual Halloween Party. It was a lot of fun. We dressed as the wicked Wizard of Oz. I was demented Dorothy of course with a cut up toto in my basket (ha), Jeff was the Tin Man of terror, Carson the scary Scarecrow, and Cal was the lion. For trick or treating, we went with Amy, Lexi, Colleen and Madi. The big kids got to go seperately so they didn't have to wait for the wagon. Cal was Thor the Thundergod (Jeff said he was getting too old to be cutesy, although I disagree). My little Thor was so funny. He tried to go into several peoples houses, especially if they had a dog! And, he wanted to ride in the wagon after each house and refused to let go of his bucket of candy. It made the evening quite interesting. But, they had so much fun and I'm glad we got to go with friends. Jeff was at the Chiefs game that night.
