Halloween rained this year. That day we took the kids in costumes to our friend's house and then trick-or-treating around their neighborhood. Luke picked out his and Henry's costumes from Costco; Luke was a knight and Henry a pirate.

We finally finished gathering together all our pictures of the baby and made a slideshow; there'd be too many to send out in an email, so we made the slideshow. Here's the link: http://youtu.be/mcDanmqOB-U The slideshow is about 8 minutes long and includes maternity pictures, pics from hospital, baby pics, funeral pics, pics taking kids to the sac zoo, and pics of our trip to Pacifica so we could go to the ocean. The funeral was 10/27, a Monday; we wanted to do Saturday, but they don't work on the weekends and so they charge $500 to have a graveside funeral on Saturdays. It ended up raining that Saturday anyway, so it worked out better. The next day, Tuesday 10/28, we stopped by Jared's work and picked up the gifts they got us: a real star named Maggie Grace Schooling and toys for the kids. Then, same day, we went to the Sac zoo and to Pacifica, CA to be near the ocean. We left Pacifica 10/30 Thursday morning and drove home. Jared was off work from 10/16-10/31 staying home with us, which was so nice. Here's the pictures:
