Christmas photo shoot

We got the girls all dressed up in Christmas outfits for Mom-o and Catfish's Christmas card. We used the scenery on our neighbor Brian and Deb's yard! Thanks guys!

Apple Dumplins

My childhood best buddy Paula Barnard and her mom Itsy came over this week and made Apple Dumplings with Mika and Abby. The girls were so excited about baking with them and then tasting the finished product! We will have to make this a Thanksgiving Tradition! They were involved in the entire process, mixing, peeling and coring and baking. Don't those dumplin's look great? I bet G.G. Dorthy would be proud of those!

Just for the Gills

I had to post this picture of our good friends Tom and Karen Gill doting over Evie at the CCS Championships! Don't the look like they want a grandbaby?

Happy Birthday Abby!

Abby had quite the birthday celebration. I made fish and chips for dinner and Marge and Marina came over to celebrate with a Chocolate Mayonnaise cake no less! On Friday we headed down to Big Sur to New Camaldali Monastery with Cyprian. We had spectacular views, a great birthday hike and grilled cheese sandwiches and another chocolate cake!

Catching up...

Gosh! We have been busy since Halloween! Cross Country meets, Birthdays and a trip or two! Evie is now 5 months old, cut two teeth and is crawling! Abby turned 4 on Nov. 17th and we took a weekend trip to Big Sur! What fun!

Halloween in La Selva Beach

We had a rockin' Halloween, Mimi paid big bucks to hire a band across the street and we enjoyed the music from a far! We had a big crowd to enjoy traditional soup and hotdogs! The girls got a jump on the Trick or Treating with their best buds and came home cold and bearing filled treat bags.

Super Baby!

On you marks, get set, Trick or Treat!

What kid of people does it take to be the Godparents of a super hero? Cyprian and Marina of course!


The neighborhood princesses, Kylie, Erin and Claire!

Preschool with Abby

I worked in Abby's preschool class on the day of their Halloween Party! It was so cute to see all of the kids dressed up. They got to Trick or Treat and had a yummy lunch provided by the parents. Both Abby and teacher Kathy were Minnie Mouse!
