Bring on the Christmas season!

Thomas really loves peanut butter

It's raining!  It's raining!  We went for a walk

My helpers decorating the tree

Was looking foward to "ice" skating all day!  It's an iceless rink in downtown Martinez just for the weekend

Had lots of fun dramatically falling over!

Pumpkin Patch Outing


"New" map from Baba and Jiji!  We added a post-it that says "Daddy is here" so we always know where he is!
Very excited about his new "Darth Vader Rides a Bicycle" t-shirt from BabaJiji

Just came back from half an hour at the Pumpkin Patch jump house.  WOW the dirt!
"Can I ride this horse?"
