A Day at the Beach with the Pierces

Today we met up with the Pierce family. We have been friends with the Pierce family for years. We go way back. Since everyone was in town for the holidays we decided to get together. We met at Venice Beach and walked around. It was such a beautiful day at the beach. Brent and Nikki Pierce live in Reno so they got to meet Sofia for the first time. We were so excited to introduce Sofia to their daughter Mackenzie. We ended the day with a delicious dinner at Duke's in Malibu. Thanks Pierce family...Always good times when we all get together!!

Of course she loved everything about her costume except for the ears....

Papa came trick or treating with us this year and Grandma stayed home to pass out the candy. We missed you Grandma!

Nana and Grandpa came over also...They couldn't wait to take their 1st grand-daughter trick or treating...
Trick or treating with cousins is the best!! This year Bella was a ladybug, Olivia was Hannah Montana and baby Reed was a 3-eyed monster...
Can you say C-A-N-D-Y???
I'm not sure what Sofia is thinking here...But I'm thinking it's.."This FREE CANDY thing is GREAT!!!
And then she passed out in the car....
