Trick or Treat!

Will decided he wanted to be a robot for Halloween. I had my doubts that I would actually be able to pull off a robot costume, but I'm pretty pleased with how this turned out.

I present to you the Will-Bot!

Teddy wearing the costume!

Silly boy!

Close up of the body!

Okay mom, I'm done. Get this thing offa me! (He lasted about 3 minutes)

(Not So) Sunny San Diego

We recently went to San Diego for five days for one of Pan's conferences. We weren't able to do everything we wanted, due to weather. So, we missed out on the Hotel Del Coronado, Old Town, and Sea World, but still took in plenty of San Diego. And despite the long travel time, Will actually did great on the planes.

We stayed in the Gaslamp Quarter, which was really great. We had some really outstanding food, as well. Breakfast included a great Croque Madame and peanut butter and banana-stuffed french toast. For lunch, we had to have the fish tacos (which Will loved). For dinner, we had a great meal at Top Chef contestant Bryan Malarkey's restaurant. It served one of the best desserts I've ever had: a vanilla bean panna cotta with lime reduction and passion fruit.

Here are some pics:

World Famous San Diego Zoo

We had way too much fun with cutouts.
Some animals, to which the zoo offered close proximity:

Pandas have to eat lunch, too.

A few pics of Balboa Park, which is the art/architecture area:





All in all, despite the weather, we had an excellent time and wouldn't mind getting back there when it's a little less rainy.

Halloween pics soon to come.

Fun at the Fair!



Will loved his first trip to the Dixie Classic Fair!

He even ate a turkey leg... yum, yum!


And just for fun...
