Christmas 2008

Christmas Morning arrived with a bmx bike for Carson, snow-board for Cass and PS3 for Jordan & Avery!

Aquarium of the Pacific, Long Beach

Well, it seems for our family the best times recently have been the "spur of the moment, let's load up and go to......" type of days. That's what we did on Veteran's day. We loaded up and drove to Long Beach to visit the aquarium. Here's some pictures of our visit. I think the sea horses were my favorite. (slideshow below)

We Want to Suck Your Blood!

Carson and Avery, so thrilled to finally be something scary. They could not get enought of the fake blood!

Halloween

Jordan and her friend Kioni at the school Harvest Festival. Jordan is the geek on the left! Cassie, note the side pony!

The cat's out of the bag.....

Well, it seems that my five year old now knows my secret. Although I may have an answer it's apparent that I don't always know the answer! Since his questions have escalated from "Why is the sky blue?" (because God made it that way) to "How do telephones work?" and "How is a freeway built?", my answers have become vague or gasp, I've even said..."You should ask your dad that question." Disillusionment has begun. Does this mean he doesn't want to marry me anymore?

Great Day....

This turned out to be a great day.......Cassie was home from school for a visit and Chad was between brush fires so we decided to pack up and go to the lake for the day. The weather, water, company, lunch, everything was great. I guess we didn't get a photo of Chad napping!
