Spaghetti Kids

Cheese!

Weirdos! Tim found it hilarious when the kids were "slurping" their spaghetti noodles up. As Violet puts it, "like a dog." Sheesh!

Yummy Yogurt

Well, we discovered Tim loves Greek yogurt! Good news is that 1) it is healthy and more important 2) it keeps him occupied for a good 30 minutes or so! Not so good news... duh, it's gross messy! And oh so expensive! So for $1 on sale, I can buy myself 30 minutes of "freedom!"

Look at What Ashton Can Do!

Halloween Pic

Ashton is the Golden Power Ranger, Tim as a fireman, and Violet as Rapunzel

Wow! I didn't realize that I never posted a pic of the kids and their Halloween outfits. We will have candy for months after only two blocks of trick-or-treating.

Look at What Ashton Can Do!

He can't start or really stop for that matter, but we were quite surprised that Ashton can ride a bike without training wheels! It took all of five minutes and he took off on his own!

A Day at the Beach

All 3 at the beach

Violet reading to go off to "drill" with Dad

During Dad's last drill weekend, Mom and the kids went to meet Nana & Papa on the Coast. It was surprisingly warm, very warm, weekend for the Coast. I had to escape back to the Valley for some cooler weather. But it was an enjoyable weekend!

Fall Wreath

It's finally fall here in Fresno! The kids and I went out on a "nature" walk picking up leaves and sticks. After a trip to the Dollar Store and $4.32 worth of items, we made this!

Looks good up close! I just wonder how well the pins will hold the fragile leaves. $1 for the foam wreath and $1 for the ribbon!

Here you can see how small it actually is.

Ashton's wreath! I decided to stick a candle in it and use it as a candle holder on our kitchen table!

Not bad for $1 foam wreath and an hour of walking!
