over the weekend

last week was a little rough. johnny had the flu on Tuesday, and i woke up Wednesday morning at 5:30am with vertigo. yes, vertigo! i couldnt sit or stand or even have my head more then six inched above the ground or id start feel like i was spinning soo fast and id throw up. i couldnt get my eyes to focus on anything and so after puking 10 time in an hour and a half jake decided to take me to the hospital to see what was going on and to avoid me getting dehydrated. i got an iv and some medicine and then came home. so the following few days were spent laying low and doing a whole lot of nothing. it was truly the craziest and scariest thing iv experienced. (even more then child birth)

so because of that we decided to really enjoy the weekend. we drove up to my parent on friday afternoon so jake could surf on saturday. always going where the waves are. we then came back to Irvine on saturday night and went to church on sunday. after church we went to disney land because its christmas there already and we just love it. 
while we were in NP johnny got his first hair cut! yes at 18 month he finally got it. im so glad we did it and he looks adorable. i didnt want him to lose his curls or to lose his great long hair, but it was always in his eyes and it bugged me and him. the lady did a great job, keeping some length and curls.


befor and after, he was a little traumatized.

halloween

halloween this year was really fun. and a little bit like being a little kid again.
we went up to my parents house the day befor halloween because jakes class on thursday was cancelled, probably because no one would have shown up anyways.
the day was spent preparing for the evening festivities. the mullins and all the gunns came to my parents house. it was so much fun! like being a little kid again. but we now have kids! we had chili for dinner and then went out for a little bit for the kids to get some candy and then had hot fudge and chatted for a long time catching up and being the family that we are.
every halloween my whole childhood was spent at the gunns house trick or treating and then getting back for hot chocolate and hot fudge sundaes. everyone would dump out their candy in the living room on that forest green carpet and organize, trade and count all their loot. 
this year was also really fun because johnny went trick or treating. we just did our street and went out with the twins. johnny got it pretty quick and actually tried to go into almost every house that opened their door. he was the cutest little lion iv ever seen and the twins were adorable matching skeletons.











 i loved having all these people together. we were missing a few but it was still pretty great to get almost all of us together.
