ONCE UPON A TIME... 
...there was a beautiful Princess named Nadja who lived in a beautiful castle. Nearby, there was a beautiful garden with one tiny wee pond.
'Twas one day when Princess Nadja was playing by the pond and whispered " I wish I have a little brother to play with and for me to love. I promise I will love him and take care of him forever and ever"
Suddenly, one little frog jumped onto the Princess' lap and said " Ribbit! Good morning Princess Nadja. My name is Aidan. Beautiful day indeed, isn't it? But why the long face? Ribbit!"
"Oh hello, dear Frog...uuuummm, I mean.. Aidan. How are you today? Well, I frowned because I just thought how grand it would be to have a little brother" said the Princess.
"Oh oh oh. I would love to love to love to love to be a brother of a beautiful and kind-hearted Princess like you!" Aidan the Frog said.
"You would?" Asked the Princess.
"Who wouldn't oh my lovely Princess? I promise I'll be a good brother. On one condition though. Ribbit! You must give me a smooch on the cheek and I will forever be your little brother."
"For real?"
"For real! Ribbit!"
Princess Nadja then put the frog on her hand and gave him a smooch on the cheek.
Swoosh! The frog then suddenly turned into a very cute little Prince. Prince Aidan, that is.
....And they lived happily ever after.

so oct 31's done. for us it was more of a play dress-up day. we had a very busy weekend. Friday we took the kids to the mall. they had trick or treatin' nite from 6-8pm. nadja couldn't decide what she wanted to be until the last minute. at first, she wanted to be this girl:

but then when she got a bunch of princess dresses for her bday, she changed her mind. she, of course, wanted to be a princess. then she changed her mind again the last minute. the only thing i bought was the pink wig. that was all i had.So I just grabbed one of her pink dresses, a white t-shirt, a pair of white stockings and her shoes. And there, she-was-almost-stephanie. I put on a policeman costume for Aidan. It says BABY PATROL. the mall was packed. people were in costumes and most stores gave away candies and stickers and tattoos and coupons. looked like Nadja and Aidan were the only two wearing those costumes. There were a lot of princesses though.
FREEZE, YOU'RE UNDER-ARREST !!!

Saturday, at noon, hubby and I had an appointment
here to get the kids' pics taken. Finally they got to wear their princess and frog prince costume. Christine&Jeff got Nadja that dress as her bday present. I bought Aidan's frog suit and made my own crown out of gold fabric I got from WalMart. Just sew it on and voila! That was actually what Aidan wore for Nadja's princess/bday party.
The kids had soooooooooooooo much fun at the photo studio. Nadja definitely knew what she was doing and Aidan had a blast. He kept giggling and laughing and gave us the best smiles. People that were shopping walked pass the studio and stopped to look through the window and watched these two kids in action. Hahahaha...
I love that place, they took really good pictures. This was Aidan's first studio experience. Nadja had hers taken there a lot.
After the photo session, off we went to

for Derek's bday.

Went home, took a rest for 2 hours and headed up to Shawn&Kelly's for a party. It was a fun party. Everyone really had the effort of dressing up. The kids had so much fun but it surely was a long day for them.
Sunday, I took Nadja shopping. I was looking for some retro/vintage posters for the dining room. I already have 6 or 7 of them but found and bought 5 more so that should covered up the one side wall. Hubby and pap pap (hubby's dad) took Aidan to Lowe's and Sears for some tools. Thats right. Girls do their own thing. Boys do their own thing. Girls rule boys drool! Hehehe...
Here's another pic from the mall.
