San Francisco

Ernie surprised me with a trip to San Francisco for our 11th anniversary! He told me two weeks before we went. He wasn't going to tell me until the day we were leaving, but he was afraid I was going to plan something. We got there Saturday afternoon and walked around the waterfront and down Columbus Street. On Sunday we went to Union Square and Chinatown. We did so much walking, our feet were killing us. On Sunday we rented bikes and rode to the middle of the Golden Gate Bridge. It was a fun bike ride. We came home Monday evening. We had a lot of fun exploring a new city!

Snoqualmie Pass

We took the kids to play in the snow while the boys were on break. We found a little hill the kids had fun playing on. Mila's snow pants were really slick in the snow so she didn't even have to use a sled. She just slid down on her bum! She was so funny to watch! She loved it! I also got a good laugh when Ernie accidently jumped his sled!

Christmas Morning

Can you tell who aren't morning people?

Nora and Mila's First Hair Cut

We took the girls to get their first hair cut. I didn't want to risk messing up their hair so we took them where Ernie gets his hair cut. They did really good! A little whining at first, but that was it. They only got a little cut off in the back. We are trying to get their hair all one length.

Santa Visited!

Ernie has a wonderful aunt and uncle that dress up as Santa and Mrs. Claus and come visit the kids. The kids love it! Of course at family gathering the kids are always around him because they think he is Santa. In fact some of them call him Santa even if it isn't Christmas!

One Down One to Go!

We are potty training! I think Mila has got it! Nora is still having accidents. I can't wait to be done with diapers, pull-ups, and wet panties!!!!

Fall has Come and Gone!

Fall flew right by! I can't believe it's almost Christmas! Here are a few pictures I took the past two months.

The kids helped me make applesause.

Ezra has his own cheering section riding his bike.

The girls' funny face!

Halloween!
