leaves, leaves and leaves everywhere

This year, I helped mommy and daddy clean-up the yard ( I play more than raking :)) It was soooo fun! I love throwing the leaves, sit on pile of them, raking them with the small rake and my own shovel, and collect some nice leaves in my jack o lantern. The most fun thing is when mommy asked me to stand inside the leaf bag and jump on the leaves to make them packed, or sat on top of the bag with mommy and fell down on the ground.



The only thing I didn't like was when mommy used the blower. I like to see the leaves blowing everywhere, but it was too loud. I told mommy not too loud next time.




When we did the front yard, mommy talk with our neighbor, grandpa John. They talked for quite long, so I just play by myself and I decided to go to the garage to find something. I decided to get into the car, and accidentally I pressed the garage remote control and in just second the garage door closing down. I heard mommy calling me outloud to opened the garage (since mommy was panicked and realized that mommy didn't have her keys, both car or house).


I was panicked too! I cried just right after I knew the garage is dark. And just after I opened it, mommy came to rescue me :)


Hopefully lesson learned :)

red, orange & red leaves, pumpkins, halloween, cold & breezy

fall is coming...

it's nice to see the changes of colors, lots of falling leaves, carving some pumpkins, halloween, feeling warm inside the house and have some fun activities too!

I got the chance to go to a pumpkin patch this year. It was at the Jacquemin Farms http://www.jacqueminfarms.com/ with my school, Kindermusik. Tante Yiklit and Om Dudud came along with us, and we picked a big pumpkin, and 2 small pumpkins for me and Matt.

I took a hayride to the patch and I rode an unused tractor on the sie. It was awesome to see hundreds of pumpkins there. I would picked the biggest pumpkin if I can carry it :)

I watched tante-tante carved the pumpkins. I like the cat better :) Mommy made some cookies with the pumpkins, om Piter cooked pumpkin soup, and Matt's grandma cooked the pumpkin like labu siyem, which I like :)

I went to the zoo early in the morning with my playgroups friends, Alexander, Avery, Hope & Clara. It was pretty chilly in the morning. I have to wear my gloves and hat. There're no more rides except merry go round, because the season is over. I saw some big animals up close, like bison, grizzly bears, moose, eagles and also wolves, sea otters who were very playful.

When the Halloween came, I dressed up as a cute little froggy. I went to Glen's house for trick or treat. So many kids and grown-up were dressed up. All my Indonesian friends were dressed up too. They're: Abby the sweet ladybug , Glen the Batman, Sammy the little Nemo, Andrew the Caterpillar, Jacelyn the Pink Unicorn, Matt the little Zebra, and even Michael the sleepy little doggie :) I got a bunch of sweets, but I can eat just 2 pieces :( I had diarrhea a couple days before the halloween. It was fun to go with some friends and collect candies, eventhough I saw some scary decorations with scary sounds and scary people with costumes.
