Here are photos from today with my Mom. Stefanie loves Elmo and my mother brought her an Elmo t-shirt and I brought her the slippers.

HALLOWEEN, OCTOBER 31, 2006

We started our morning at the TV station, and made yet another appearance on "Good Things Utah". Mom and I loved seeing all of the children in costume. Stefie loved being around all the other children, and she really loved one of the "Care Bears". After the show we went home for Stefanie to have a quick nap.

Early this evening we took Stefie to the South Towne Center Shopping Mall, making an attempt to let Stefie trick or treat. Stefie started off quite well, but then things quickly changed when suddenly kids started to push Stefie out of the way, and she began to get trampled. Things quickly went down from there. Stefanie insisted I hold her the entire time and we did our best to take photos, and walk the first floor. The mall became so crowded, we decided it was best to leave. We spent the rest of the evening handing out candy. The highlight of Stefanie's evening seemed to be putting small pieces of wrapped candy inside an empty candy box.

Happy Halloween!

Nicea and her youngest daughter Kate.

TRICK OR TREAT STREET, OCTOBER 27, 2006

A new way to Trick or Treat,"Trick or Treat Street" an event
held indoors at the Convention Center. Pay and go from door

Stefanie became frightened, so I held her.

OUR LITTLE LADY

My mom Rosie came for a week to visit, and she has not seen Stefanie since June. We took Mom to Gardner Village for lunch, shopping and time to enjoy all the fall witches and pumpkins.
Grandpa (my father) stayed home to take care of the family pets and was unable to come for a visit.

We miss you Dad!

Stefanie meets Barney

STEFANIE MEETS BARNEY!

Today, October 24, 2006 was a big day for Stefanie. She had the opportunity to meet Barney and his new pal Riff before going on Good Things Utah. Stefanie was absolutely amazed by Barney and her reaction surprised us. We all had a really good laugh and she absolutely could not take her eyes off Barney. Stefanie went on camera once again, but this time this was a really special moment for her. It was great to see Stefie have some private one on one time with Barney and Riff. Here are photos from today.

PUMPKINS, PUMPKINS AND PUMPKINS

Yesterday, Jon, Theresa and I took Stefanie to pick pumpkins for the first time. Stefanie absolutely loves pumpkins almost as much as I do. She loved running and putting her favorites in the cart. We took lots of photos and ran through a maze. What fun!










Do I have to sit in here Daddy?


Finding just the right pumpkins.




Are we done yet?


This ones perfect.


"No, its not here".


Another one in the cart.


"Hmm... Let me see".


"This is hard work".
