What holiday isn't again?

We skipped the ferry market on saturday because a food blogger convention was in town and we avoid crowds that big ;)

Instead we drove to the farms along the coast.

Pelicans- they got so close to us, but I missed getting a picture because was busy looking with my eyes :)


Bumble enjoying the view...


Ira informing me that the farm fresh strawberries were delicious!!!!








Then we made an impromptu trip to the Santa Cruz mountains--- REDWOODS!!!

They were velvety....












After our little trip we stopped at target and found costumes over 75% off!

Our little garden gnome...


Knight...


How awesome is her face?





Sister wardrobe assistance...





This is the face that Ira said knights make "when they do something cool"





We jumped back into Halloween mode to make treats...








Then they drew spooky pictures...








We ended the night with toy story 3. WATCH IT! We laughed- really hard.... And cried- really hard!

Ren Faire

Highlights from the day... The actual faire was a bummer. It was pretty expensive (of course) but the people there were pretty aggressive and obnoxious- especially if you weren't buyin what they were sellin.

But we had fun-

Puddle jumpin...


Ride to faire on horse drawn cart.,.


Opening procession...


The girls picked our swords and shields...



We watched a fencing match... Ira was the official score Keeper. That was very fun for her!


They let her try it out-


This show- a knife throwing/comedy act- was hilarious.


Dancers...


Circus arts


We only stayed a couple hours...


At home it was more legos and some Halloween crafts...

Ira did a maze....
