Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween from the Four Henrys and their

four Jack-O-Lanterns! Yes, the little one counts too.

Bat Boy and Busy Bee had a WONDERFUL Halloween

with their friends, Luke and Lola. Mommy and Daddy

had fun too and enjoyed chili and corn muffins with

Lance, Kelly, and Uncle Joejoe.

Here is our Busy Bee after her first piece of candy.

Bat Boy quickly got the hang of Trick-or-Treating.

After his first candy score he looked at Pat and said:

"Open this!"

Lady O and Super Luke after their first candy score

at Chris and Claire's house. We did not go back to C and

C's this year for drinks as they spoiled O so badly w

candy last year that she PUKED chocolate. Yes, it is

true!

Getting ready to head out for candy loot!

The Motley Crue of costumed kids! They had a ball.

We are so thankful that we have such fabulous and

generous neighbors who go all out for Halloween!

We were treated to two free "haunted houses," glow sticks

and candy galore, and many fun yard displays.

Happy Halloween!

Lazy Blogging

Hello everyone,

It's been a long time since we blogged but here's about 9000 pictures to make up for it. We recently went to Napa and San Fran for our anniversary so some of those are included. Also some great pictures of the kids at the pumpkin patch. Happy Halloween!

Pumpkin Power! The driver at Berry Patch Farms

wore this very appropriate t-shirt.

Hayride to the pumpkin patch.

Does anyone ever look AT the camera at the same

time?!?!

Hercules!

Resting on the pumpkin with "freckles" that

O insisted we buy.

Boo!

Pumpkin head.

The fabulous four...mini-pumpkins.

Silly siblings.

Here are some photos of our visit with Kate's

cousins, Kara and Leah, in Oakland.

Doesn't Kara's boyfriend Mike look like a ghost

or an orb? This is due to an error with the camera's

timer.

Kate and Kara look drunk here...but they weren't! They

just have the "Skafidas" gene when it comes to being photographed.

Hanging inside a Redwood at Muir Woods.

Views from the Pacific Coast Hwy.

Crookedest Street. We walked and drove it.

View of fog from Lombard St.

Alcatraz!

If you think Chicago is windy, you should visit San Fran.

The wind was unreal!

Views of and from Alcatraz.

Cheese shot #101...we had a few of these.

Naaaaapa!

Silly Napa.

One of the many, many, beautiful views while in Napa.

Notice we were dressed in layers. There can be up to five

temperature zones within a small area of a vineyard

in Napa. It was hot/warm/cold....all within a few feet.

Kate makes friends with a vineyard dog.

Pride Vineyard...the first and most educational of

our vineyard visits (notice I did not say it was the MOST

FUN visit...). Excellent wine at Pride!

Breakfast! This wine is one of many of Pride's wines

served at French Laundry. It was just a tad more

economical to buy it directly from the winery.

Had to go to Haight Ashbury for some Cherry Garcia.

Park next to the Golden Gate Bridge.

Foggy view of the bridge.

Chinatown...where we ate the most disappointing

Dungeoness Crab ever. No thanks to you, Anthony Bourdain!
