NEW VANS [shoes] FOR JACKIE

Last weekend we went to the Irvine Spectrum to the Vans Store to buy jack new shoes. Jack thinks these are "Big Boy" shoes because he sees all the skater kids wearing vans.

As we were leaving we walked past a store with funky music playing and Jack jumped up on the planter and began to dance. It was sooo funny I took a photo.

Here is our little Krunking Jackie in his new shoes and his Doyers cap. They don't stay little for long.

WILD ANIMAL PARK

Last Sunday we drove down to the San Diego area to go to the Wild Animal Park. It was a cool day and perfect weather to spend outside walking around. It turned out that the Park was much nicer than expected.

The African Safari area is a valley filled with loins, giraffes, rhinos, and dozen of different antelope. We rode the tram around to look at them.

The cheetahs have the good life. Their watching us, thinking about lunch. We plan to go back to the Wild Animal Park now that we know where it is and some of the details.

HALLOWEEN

Another Halloween has come and gone. Jack was "Spiderman" this year. He is obsessed with Super Heroes. His friend Lucas was Hulk and his other friend Ryan was Batman. They made up the Super Hero Team at Tutor Time last Friday for the Halloween Party. Pam attended and captured some of the crazy fun.

Saturday Jack dressed up again as Spiderman and went trick or treating with Mommy. It was not nearly as much fun as playing with his friends at school. Still, he collected some good candy and our neighbors all liked his costume. Pam and Jack carved the pumpkin and we all had great time.
