Arthur's Spread Out Birthday

Arthur had a bit of everything for his birthday - an early outing with a friend, gas station dippin dots on his actual birthday, and presents and cake with friends a few days later.


                                                            We are 5 party at TK.

Thanksgiving Snow

We got 1/2" snow on Thanksgiving morning.  We went sledding in our pajamas like crazy Californians. 





I made the kids help with dinner, which was excellent.

Sienna's Barbie Birthday

For Sienna's 8th birthday, she asked for roller blades and Barbies.


She's pretty thrilled with the gymnastics Barbie from Grandma.

Halloween Costumes: Food

 This year we took a loss on our Halloween costumes. We didn't want to use one of our great theme ideas when we wouldn't get to use our costumes much, and then we actually got to use them even less than we thought.  But they turned out cute, mostly thanks to my friend who made all of the girls' headbands.






Pineapple, sushi, strawberry, taco, donut, popcorn

Grandpa's Funeral

We were sad to say goodbye to Grandpa this October.



 

Knott's Taste of Fall-o-Ween

We went with our best neighbors to the Knott's taste of Fall-o-Ween event. And I'm so glad we did because it turned out to be pretty much the only Halloween fun we had.

Dalton Turns 11

For Dalton's birthday, we had Bowser shell cupcakes, made ice cream in a bag with the neighbors, and went on a family dessert hop at the outdoor mall.

New House

 Covid drove us to do something we probably should have done a couple years ago - we moved to a bigger house. It happened to coincide with the kids going back to school, but they'll probably be home again soon, so whatever.
