Happy Halloween 2012

 My little butterflies!
 Making treat bags with Kenzie's class.  The Kindergarten celebrated Halloween by rotating through all of the Kindergarten classrooms doing various crafts of games.  Our classroom had treat bags with pumpkin mosaics on them and Mystery boxes!
 Here are our mystery boxes with spiders, eyeballs (peeled grapes), worms (green spaghetti noodles) and bloody slime (jelllo)!  It was a big hit!


 My butterflies and Clark Kent!
 Kenzie getting ready to trick-or-treat!
 Kenzie & Sophie
 Ben!  He was a little crabby so this was the best picture I could get!
 Hannah ready to go!
Central Residences Phase 2 Trick-or-treaters!  We had fun trick or treating, although I will have to say that it was interesting trick or treating in a high rise!  
It was a great day!  The kids had a lot of fun, I'm glad we were able to keep some things the same (or close to it) as if we lived in Michigan!

Breast Cancer Walk-a-Thon

 The SCIS Girl Scouts hosted a Breast Cancer Walk-a-Thon on Saturday at the main campus.  The girls walked around the soccer field.  They collected donations.  People could either donate a flat donation or a per lap donation.
 Our Daisy Girls!
 The girls did a great job!
Hannah walked too!
Kenzie did 14 laps and Hannah did 7!
They did a great job!
We are so proud of them.

Girl Scout Daisy Troop 5875

We had our first Girl Scout meeting on Friday.  It was so much fun!
Here is our group of girls!
It's going to be a fun year!

Disney Day 5

 Our last day at Disney the girls wanted to wear their princess dresses!  We got to see Cinderella again!
 We also got to see Tinker Bell!
 Posing!
 Benny!
 At night they had scary people!  Kenzie wanted her picture with this girl!
 We had time to go on a couple rides.  Me & Kenzie went on the Slinky Dog ride, then her and Gary went on the Parachute Drop.
 We had a great time at Disney!  We made a lot of great memories!!
Each cast member passed out stickers to the kids!  Here is what we came home with! You can't really tell in the picture but most of the gold ones are a pile of them!  I think we got our money back in stickers!  This doesn't take into account the ones they stuck on their clothes or the ones Ben ate (haha)!

Disney Day 4

 The cleaning ladies set up their toys like this while we were out!  They also put up a ghost and bat made out of towels!  
Today we went to the Tung Chung area of Hong Kong to get a vaccination for Ben (I know not fun, but we had to get it done!) so we tried to go on the cable cars up the mountain but the wait was too long so we headed back to the hotel to relax before heading to the park!
 They had Disneyland decorated for Halloween!  They also had places to go Trick-or-Treating! 
 We got to see Chip & Dale!
We also watched the Glow in the Park Parade.
Hannah wanted to see Daisy and we finally got to see her in the parade.

Disney Day 3

 Day 3 was by far our best day!!  We got there early, before the park opened so we could do some of the rides that get super busy.  As we were waiting in line the girls were hot so we told them to go sit in the shade close by, as I was walking up to see them they were talking to 2 girls that worked there.  They were asking them where their parents were.  So I said Hi!  Then they asked me if we wanted to be the first guests in the park and help open the gates for everyone else!  Of course I said yes!!
 They formed a line and clapped as we walked in!
 Then we had a photo shot with all the cast members!
 Mickey and Minnie also came to greet us!
 Getting ready to "unlock" the gate!
 "Hong Kong Disneyland is now open!"
We were the first ones on the Dumbo ride!

 Mickey hats!
 We had a great time but we need to rest up for our Character dinner so we headed back to the hotel to swim!
 Enjoying the nice weather and pool!
 We went to dinner at The Enchanted Garden.

 Pluto walked us to our table!
 We got to spend time with Pluto
 Mickey
 Goofy

 Desserts!
 and Minnie
 We also celebrated Gary's birthday at dinner!

Pluto helped Gary cut his cake!
It was an AWESOME day, one we will never forget!
