We decided to Trick or Treat on Tait in downtown Los Gatos this year. It was WILD! Here are some pictures from the evening not showing the craziness of this street on Halloween.

We celebrated Emily’s 3rd BD yesterday with friends & family
The main event for Emily’s 3rd BD was “Happy Birds”, a performing parrot show
Seven beautiful & friendly parrots entertained us all and Emily even got a kiss from pretty “Piper”
This particular bird is a trainee to the show. Emily is feeding him an almond.
The bird show consisted of various birds riding a bike, riding a scooter, singing songs, making other animal impersonations, skateboarding, opening water bottles, etc.
Max was an active participant in the audience with lots of questions for the “Bird Lady”. He loved it!
Piper wants to give Max a kiss,
but Max holds back …

The first words out of Emily’s mouth yesterday morning were: “Today is my dance class! Right, mommy?”
I said, “Yes” and she responded “YEAH!”
Emily loves her ballet class with Teacher Rachel & her good friend, Megan
Not too mention the pink outfit & fluffy multi-layered fiesta tutu
Looking thoughtful as she stands on her tip toes
Posing in the mirror
Emily & Megan wore matching fiesta tutus in class yesterday
Emily would look at her tutu and then look at Megans?
She finally realized that they had the same tutu!
Megan’s mom and I are looking forward to the performance at the end of the session.

She was nervous at first, but then warmed up to Danny and went over to get a hug

First ride … the animal caroussel
Emily chose a gray leopard with a fish in it’s mouth. Of course, “brown puppy” joined her for the ride
Sweet Emily
Megan & Emily on the Granny Ladybug Ride
Megan & Emily are both 35 inches high so they missed out on some of the bigger rides. They needed to be 36 inches!
Enjoying the ride
There was also a petting zoo! Emily was saying hello to the baby goat.
She enjoyed petting them and introducing them to her brown puppy.

Poor Max. He saw the pictures on the computer and said, “Mommy, where was I?”
Max was in preschool this morning so we had a little girl’s outing.
