A few fun pics of Daniel from the Fall

Daniel is just SO cute! We love taking pictures of him. Here are some from the past few months.

I had to capture his curls. I LOVE THEM!! I have yet to cut them, Andrews never came back the same, so I'm holding on with dear life to these.

 Sierra INSISTING that she can feed Daniel his yogurt....

 Learning to feed himself and just being cute

 he LOVES popcorn and found Bob's leftovers from the night before and decided he'd eat it for breakfast...so proud of himself.

 He stole a package from under the Christmas tree, usually he just runs around with it laughing and smiling, this time he climbed onto the couch and this is what I found.....I guess he'd decided that holding it was no longer good enough.

 Enjoying his Cutie orange, attempting to hide it from any scavengers (aka Sierra)

 SO mad that I wouldn't give him anymore

 Just another typical happy picture of our little guy enjoying grandmas blueberry muffins, I guess I did pretty good!

attempting to eat cereal with a serving fork. He saw it on the counte and BEGGED for it

 Helping to bring groceries in from the garage! SO BIG!!!

Little Helpers

My kids love to help out around the house. Inside and out.

Sierra and Daniel helping with cupcakes...

 Ben admiring our dead tree.....

 The tree in our front yard has been DEAD for a while now. Several times a month we would have people stop by and offer to chop it down. We always told them that we were ok and would get around to it. Well, the day after Thanksgiving...it happened! Bob was out putting lights on the house and thought he'd see how dead it really was. As he pushed on it it WIGGLED! This prompted a pushing and pulling of the tree until it finally fell over!

Sierra hiding in the tree....

 Climbing on the tree...

 Ben hiding in the tree....

For some reason there are no pictures of Andrew, he was there and enjoying all the joy of a tree laying in our front yard.

Fall Harvest Party

Ben's kindergarten class had their Fall Harvest Party, Ben was really excited! He was even appropriately named Dancing Bear. I don't know how these amazing teachers stay so amazing with 35 kindergartners! But Mrs. Loomis continues to do the fun things and parties she has ALWAYS done with her class. I'm VERY grateful for that too and help her out when I can.

Here's a picture of Ben with his buddy Mason, they're in primary together too and were pleasantly surprised to be sitting at the same table in Kindergarten too!

USC!!!

Bob's mom got tickets for her, Bob, David and their dad to attend the USC vs UCLA game. But she had to buy tickets to another game. SOOOOO guess who ended up with the tickets!!! THANK YOU PAULA!!!

 We took our friends Steve and Shannon Day because we knew they were big USC fans.

 enjoying ourselves

 after the game with the torch all lit up

 In honor of Connor, we stayed and watched the marching band, they were AMAZING!! We weren't to impressed with the half time show, but after, standing still, and listening to them head on was AMAZING!!!

THANK YOU AGAIN MOM!! WE HAD A BLAST!!!
