Playing in the Rain

The kids were begging me to play in the rain one day, so right before bathtime, I let them get soaked. They loved it. Henry wouldn't get off the porch. The photos aren't great because I was also trying to stay dry.

Cousin Trip to the Museum

Courtney and I have been trying to get together more often, so our kids know each other better. And, we really like to hang out together. We took a trip to the Discovery Center in Orange County last November. The kids had a blast....the moms were exhausted at the end from trying to keep track of 5 kids 5 years old and younger.

Bowling

Waaaaaaaaaaaaay back in November we took the kids bowling for the first time. Chris was working 16 hour days, 7 days a week, so we took a quick break one afternoon. Miles and Amelia thought it was awesome, Henry not so much. And Emily won, which tells you how competitive the game was.

2 years ago while all the adults in Chris' family were at the church setting up for Jenny's wedding reception, Uncle Richard was at home with ALL the grandkids. He captured the following priceless video.

Halloween

We spent Halloween this year with our favorite friends the McDuff family. They live in the perfect little neighborhood, full of little kids. The kids got tons of candy and Amelia claimed it was the "best night ever."

Happy Halloween from our favorite ladybug, Captain America and Bumblebee.
