First Christmas Event
Our first Christmas outing...La Arcada Christmas walk. The line for Santa was at least an hour long so we were able to skip the Santa thing by buying balloons and candy canes (see Nick's face)...
All In One Afternoon...
Starting the afternoon with the cutest sight...Grandad and Nickie snoozin' together for their nap...love it!
That allowed my mom and I to attempt for the first time making our familys famous "Haws Mustard"...turned out perfect our first try!
After naps boys hangin' out cheering on the gals as we finish up our batches of mustard...

Grandparent's Day
After 3 years of living in Costa Rica, Grammy and Grandad FINALLY made it to Montessori's Grandparent's Day for Ben! The crew in front of Ben's new door (class)...Orange Door.
Surfin' Army Man
Nothing exciting, but had to post this hilarious sight...

Kids Halloween
For the last 3 years we go to our friend's house for trick-o-treating. Their neighborhood goes NUTS for Halloween, almost every house goes all out...here are the boys leaving one house...
Another house...
Our friends always have a pirate theme...this was just one of the MANY cool things they had on their front lawn. The ship even blew smoke!
Below is Ben in outfit number 3. To make a long story short, Ben picked a bleeding skeleton outfit this year. After a test run he found the torso of the outfit was very uncomfortable, so he wore his race car outfit underneath...just in case. We got the fake blood pump working on his skeleton outfit, starting walking for t-o-ting, and he kept stepping on the long cape. So, we took off his skeleton costume and felt very lucky we had his race car outfit underneath. BUT the blood to the skeleton outfit leaked and ended up making a huge wet spot at his crotch! Drama! So off mom went, back to the house, quickly grabbed his Power Ranger costume, and there you have it. The best part is that the fake blood totally stained poor Ben...yes, all over his "you know what" and down his legs. After 2 baths it is almost off!
