Halloween Harvest Festival

Last weekend, we brought Macu to Pierce College's Halloween Harvest Festival.  We used to go to Lombardi Ranch at Valencia but its hot that weekend and I don't want to drive all the way there.  Good thing is Pierce College is close to Topanga Mall so we got to hang out at the mall first.

Halloween Baby Shower

Our good friend J is expecting her 2nd child in January.  We decided to combine her Baby Shower with the Halloween Party para one-time-big-time affair na lang.

Got the idea from pinterest

Mickey's Halloween Party

I love going to theme parks and going on rides.  Before I found out I'm pregnant again, I have this whole to do list of doing the theme park round since DH and I have not gone to one since Macu arrived.  I planned on going to Six Flags and trying out the new thrill rides. Go to Knotts Berry Farm for the Halloween event. But God has different plans for us and decided to bless us with a new munchkin which means the thrill seeker in me needs to take a back seat for a while.

But one thing that I told DH that we need to do for sure is visit Disneyland during Halloween. I have always wanted to see the decorations and other gimmicks they had. The main thing they do during Halloween Time is host Mickey's Halloween Party on certain nights in October.  They close the park early for regular guests and you need a special event ticket to attend. The cost for each ticket varies between $54 to $69 depending on the date but this includes parking and entrance to the park 3 hours prior to the event.

LA County Fair

We went on the last weekend of the LA County Fair in Pomona.  Got tickets at Costco which was a really good deal.  For $54.99 you get 4 admission tickets, 1 free parking and 44 ride tickets.  Ticket at the box office alone at the venue is $17 and parking is $15. I say it was a good deal!

This is like 1/4 of the entire fair.  It was so huge!

Macu's First Birthday Carnival - Photobooth

This was an absolute hit! Thank you Ninong Jason for setting this up! If anyone is in the LA area and want to have a photobooth in their next party, contact me!
