Autumn days.

Hello friends, Sorry it always seems to take me so long to post.
We've been very into the swing of fall/autumn.It is my most favorite time of year.
The start of fall is very significant to anyone who is involved in hockey.We have season tickets to The Seattle Thunderbirds and Daniel plays hockey as well. So fall is the kick off to that season.
 
I took a friend with me who had never been to a hockey game before and introduced her to that and all the goodness that is poutine.Which she also really liked.We had so much fun.

Ariel and I worked on centerpieces for the party.We had candy galore everywhere.I made what they call eye candy jars. I also made boxes. Using Peeps, licorice ,black, orange & yellow jellybeans, orange and black taffy and many other kinds of candy like gummy worms and even threw in some plastic eyeballs. Ariel and I thought they turned out pretty cute. Normally you use much bigger jars for these,but since I had to make so many I decided to just use dollar store vases and candy boxes from Walmart.
 Wish my photos were clearer oh well just quick shots with my phone.
             I also got all my fall decorations up.

 After the party Ariel started getting her nerve blocks again.So far she's had two and gets her third tomorrow morning . She loved the Finding Nemo room. These are always followed by Physical therapy.She had to go in her wheelchair due to having  a lot of seizures before and after the blocks .Always fun to see Miss Shelly. She makes P.T. fun.
The guys and I also got some zoo work in.We've volunteered for Point Defiance Zoo And Aquarium for seven years,but haven't been able to do much in the last few due to Ariel's health being so poor.We carved pumpkins and worked Zoo Boo.We did a spider game with the kids.
The guys had a lot of fun playing games with the kids and handing out candy.
 Although Ariel wasn't able to work at the zoo she had fun decorating her pumpkin and house.
 
We also went to the movies a few times.

 My cousin and I also went to The Holiday Food and Gift Fair st The Tacoma Dome.
It was so much fun looking at all the pretty decorations and trying all the yummy samples. I was good though and only bought a piece of fudge. It was good,but so far the very best fudge I've had is sold at Cabela's.They have this old fashioned shop and make tons of flavors my favorite so far was the pumpkin pie.I didn't think it would be that good,but it was delicious.
Well I need to run and get Ariel off to her appointment.I'm hoping to take her to trunk or treat tomorrow or some other fun event.If we do I'll post more pictures.
