Day 2

Here we are the next day and like I said yesterday I don't think we will have blue skies for awhile. The Sun is as red as blood. It's scary here. They say the fires are 0% contained so we are getting nervous. Eric wants me to pack a togo bag.

Fires

We were watching TV last night and they kept having breaking news of wildfires and evacuations of cities all around us. Well sure enough we woke up this morning and turned on the news and it is like a war zone here. All the schools are closed down even Eric's school. There is a fire burning in the hills next to his school. Freeway's are closed and they are saying on the news to close down businesses. There are 8 fires burning right now. Our good friends in San Marcos, said half the ward has been evacuated and are down at the church. So here are some pictures I took of the smoke moving in closer and closer to our house. So I think it's the last blue sky we we'll see for a while.

Fun day

We went to BAtes nut farm again with a friend of mine from church and her kids. Hunter had a great time calling to the animals and feeding them seeds from his hand.(He was very brave) It was 91 degrees out there so needless to say we didn't stay that long because we all got to hot, and we weren't prepared for hot weather.

Cool Dude

Hunter Loves to wear our sunglasses. We say he is a "cool dude" when he has them on. His other favorite thing to do is drive the car. I was lucky I got this shot, the glasses stayed on and he was looking at me. Cutie pie!!

My Surprise

My amazing Husband surprised me with our new bed set when I got home from Utah. The picture is the dresser with the mirror and in the mirror you can see the headboard of the bed. It's so beautiful, I love it.

Bates Nut Farm

Hunter was running from one pile of pumpkins to the next sitting on a pumpkin to pose for the shot. He was in pumpkin heaven. He kept trying to pick one up but it was just a little to heavy for our strong little guy. We love having this as our family tradition. It will be fun to see how big they get each year compared to a pumpkin. This year we only bought 2 pumpkin an orange one and a white one. Eric decided he was ok with not getting a "BIG MAC" pumpkin one which weighs 75 lbs+. We didn't have the room to bring it home in the trunk because we now have a big strooler in there instead. Halloween is so much fun!!

It's been a while

Hunter and I went to Utah for 2 weeks and had a great time, we always do. We were excited to come home to see Eric. We sure missed him. We came home to an awesome surprise. Eric had bought our dream bed set for our room. We have had our mattress up on cinder blocks for 3 1/2 years, so he splurged to surprise me. I love it, I just sit in my room and smell the smell of new furniture and I'm in awe that it's mine.

Hunter mastering the use of the fork!

Grandma was enjoying the sun on our patio and had the bucket of water next to her to cool down with splashing it on herself. Well Hunter walked on out and sat right in it. He loves the water, no matter what size the pool is.

Hunter loves to copy whatever Grandpa is doing, even if it is reading the pool warning signs??

Eric and I went out for our 4 years together from our first date. It was October 11th 2003. We went to the Haunted Trails in Balboa park just like we did on our first date. It was super fun to get scared and hold each other as we ran from the man with the chainsaw. Yes I was screaming like a little girl and so was Eric. We had a great night. Thanks to Mom and Dad for watching Hunter so we could go. We have been so blessed in our 4 years, with so many more to come. Yee Haw!!
