And Now It's October

I can already feel the year just slipping out from under us.  We've made it to October and pretty soon it'll be Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and then 2019!  We're currently on fall break so no school for the biggies.  Esme's doing a Haunted House Camp (where they construct a haunted house) at the East HI Cultural Center.  And Chan's doing a 4H gardening camp that's just 1.5 hours a day.  Something different to break up all the other stuff they do :)

The girls first train ride at the St Joe's Country Fair.   They were so excited!

It's scary how much this girl loves shoes.  Or just likes making her own decisions and turns out we have soooooooo many shoes so she has lots of choices.  After this pic we finally decided we need to get her hair trimmed.  Ha ha!  See below.

Poppy got her first official haircut.  I've trimmed the bottoms but wasn't confident I could do the sides so off we went and she did great!

We attempted a little back yard photo shoot in their Merrie Monarch outfits from Nana but Poppy wasn't in the mood.  Ha ha!

Chan comes home in the afternoon and always has these big idea or projects he wants to do.  This was his impromptu lemonade stand he made for us at Nana's house one day.

This was another project Chan made with cousin Tosh - little dog houses.

The Hawaii Volcanoes National Park finally reopened so we visited on the second weekend!  We loaded the big kids bikes and the stroller for the littles and ventured out to the new Halemaumau lookout.  It's amazing how much the crater has grown with all the recent activity.  It was all new for the kids really but still fun to share with them.
