This past weekend was super busy! I think I lost my voice because of too much outdoor (windy!) partying! Hubby was off hiking in the highest mountain in the U.S. (San Juancito Peak ~ Elevation 11,000+ ft) in Palm Springs, so the kids and I decided we will eat at McD and have fun at our Ladera Harvest festival! We ended up staying there for 4 hours!
Abbie was in her tank top and freezing! We had to go to the car to get our big jackets!
Abbie loved playing the games and doing all the crafts, though Caleb preferred to eat treats nonstop. Here he is eating kettle corn 'while sister goes on a horseback ride.

| Brother keeps eating... |
 |
| And eating.... |
 |
| Sister LOVES horseback riding! |
The kids were really good at getting the stuffed animals! They won tons of cute animals and other treats!
It was a super good deal, with $5 wristbands letting kids play all the carnival games and enjoy petting zoo and pony rides! The kids loved petting the farm animals....We were surprised to hear one big Turkey mumble, "Gobble Gobble Gobble" under his breath! Hope he will be spared from the table this Thanksgiving! (^_^)
We even had a beautiful horse-drawn carriage which goes around Avendale Street by Founder's Park for free ~ A special treat we've never had in Ladera's 11-year history!
The kids won a dozen prizes and enjoyed decorating cowboy hats! Abbie also HAS to get her face painted...it's an addiction of hers. She got a little bunny on her cheek!

| Decorating the hat was fun! Caleb wasn't too thrilled though ~ |
It was so fun to see them in Western hats taking pictures "in jail" and with cowboys/damsels who looked like "Back to the Future 3" casts!
 |
| Brother laughs at jailbird Sister! |
 |
| Your turn will come too, brother! |
 |
| I was so out of place in this Western theme w/my USC sweather! (^_^) |
Abbie loves these activities! We never missed a Spring/Fall festival ever since she was a toddler! We are so blessed to have a great community and good neighbors!
