Halloween!

It's been ages since I've put up new pictures of Jack, so here is a photo summary of the past month or so. If you wanna see the slideshow of all 82 pictures, go here. (LINK)


We went to Pa's Pumpkin Patch in Long Beach. Jack loves pumpkins!

They had lots of rides and a petting zoo for Jack to enjoy.
Hello Mr. Goat

Of course we had to go see Halloween Time at Disneyland. And of course Jack had to give Dumbo a big kiss.

And here's the newest addition to our household...Charlie Brown Hirotsu.

Jack loves Charlie...he's even teaching him to read.

And for Halloween, Jack had to be his favorite character...Mickey Mouse. You could just see his face light up when he had his costume on.
Someone loves being Mickey Mouse
Hilarious!

We went out to go trick-or-treating for a bit and then went to the carnival at the park across the street. They had lots of carnival games to play...and Jack figured out a way to cheat at every one he played.

And our annual Halloween party (complete with a Halloween Tree) was great for the kids...Jack and Kyle were both Mickey Mouse! Olivia was Minnie Mouse and Preston was a race car driver. Daniel did a great job dressed up as Hiro from "Heroes," Glenn was a white tiger, and Kevin was "Dave" from "The Office."
Happy Halloween!

Disney's California Adventure Remodel

Disney is just releasing the plans for a $1 billion makeover of Disney's California Adventure. And they spent $1 billion to build the entire park in 2001. They will reinvent the park with a 1920s California theme. The remodel is set for completion by 2012. They will be adding a new land called "Cars Land" with three new rides based on the movie. They will also have a "World of Color" water show in the middle of Paradise Pier. Check out their preliminary plans below. They already have some models and sketches on display at the Golden Vine Winery at California Adventure. I gotta go check it out!

Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States

The chain has been broken.

Obama, the 44th President

It's a historic time in our lives: the first African-American President, the largest voter turnout in history, and the first time we've harnessed R2-D2's ability to broadcast via hologram (Thanks, CNN!).

Help me Wolf Blitzer, you're my only hope.
