California Fun!

In April, we took a trip to California. We had so much fun hanging out with friends and catching up!! It was a great trip!

"I don't want to get out!!"

Zachary enjoyed helping Grammy Julie feed the birdies!!

Zachary and Mommy got there just in time to help celebrate Tom's birthday! We were so glad to get to be part of the festivities!!

We took a awesome road trip to San Fran with Grammy Julie and Grampy Tom. We had such a great time and made a ton of memories!!

Halloween Fun

A week before Halloween, we went to a pumpkin patch a friend recommended. All the pumpkins were $1. It would have been great if we had gone before they froze. Most of the pumpkins were "Mushy, Gushy". We did manage to find a couple!

On the way to the pumpkin patch, we went on a letter hunt. We looked for different things that looked like letters. Noah LOVED finding letters and Zachary just had fun helping take pictures! Here are just a couple of the letters we found.

On Halloween, we went to the church for a carnival, then to Qdoba for free tacos. We ended the night trick-or-treating with some friends!! The boys had a blast. Zachary thought trick-or-treating was the "BOMB"!!!

Anakin Skywalker!!

Diego, the "snake rescuer"!!!!

It's been a long time!

Wow! I just looked to see when I last updated this and it was December 4th. YIKES! Since I became a facebooker, I forgot about our blog. Here are some recent pictures for my "non-facebook" friends and family! Enjoy!

A Day on the Farm

Last Saturday, Noah went with some friends to a farm outside of Sioux Falls. He had so much fun riding the four wheeler, riding the horses (which he informed me were named "Dick and Dan". They even took a carriage ride. He came home smelling like the farm, it was a perfect day!!!

Halloween in South Dakota

The boys had a lot of fun going door to door Trick or Treating this year. This was the first time they had done that. Zachary just ate "Nandy" all night, and Noah just enjoyed being with new friends. It was only our second night in Sioux Falls, so our good friends showed us the "hot spots"!

Noah, as Luigi!

Zachary, the little Lion!!
All the kids!!

The family!!

Our New Home

Well, we don't have to live in a snow fort!!! We have a house. Here are a few pictures of our new house in Sioux Falls:

Asleep at the Table

I love when kids fall asleep while eating!! I think it is the cutest thing. I remember my little brother falling asleep in his food many times. Yesterday, I looked over at lunchtime to find Zachary asleep. As I was getting ready to post, I remembered that I had a picture of Noah asleep in his high chair as well. The first one is Zachary, and the second one is Noah. It is fun to see the similarities and differences in the boys.
