Happy Halloween

Hope everyone has a fun Halloween weekend!

Lagoon

Last weekend was pure bliss for my kids. We spent the entire day at Lagoon with Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncles. Jada went on Colossis (?) for the first time. She had been planning and measuring herself all week to make certain she qualified. She even tried to wear her sandals with heels just to be a litttle taller and seal the deal. When the time came to go on it she freaked and changed her mind but scince I'm such a good parent I grabbed her and said "You're doing it!" The Lady at the counter didn't think that was good parenting she pulled Jada aside and spoke to her privately and gave me the hand when I tried to put in my 2 cents. I'm not sure what she said but Jada stopped crying and stood in line fearlessly. She even opened her eyes during the second loop and said "Whoa! Cool!" and demanded we do it again.

What a fun day!

The EARLY Snow.

g

This was just a taste of what's around the corner.
But today is BEAUTIFUL!!!
Warm, sunny, autumn colors, no school.......
and Luke is sick, poor kid, I'm going to drag him outside anyways to soak up some of the sunshine.

What will we do?????

We have a serious problem.
This kid loves, craves, needs sunshine.
Cold weather is on the way and winters are loooong in Heber.
I can't even imagine what will happen when his sandbox is covered with snow.
Wish us luck!
(We may need to spend some time in San Diego)

Lake Tahoe

Just another day in paradise.

We squeezed one more minute out of summer by heading to Lake Tahoe the week before school started. We spent a day on the beach, a day in a boat, and a day mountain biking at North Star. Thank goodness we have friends with"friends in high places" we were able to vacation like superstars without the superstar prices.
(check out Felix in the boat, love the pose)
