Halloween

Halloween at Garin School

Coco and Miranda with my friend DeAnne

Dee has never missed a Halloween at my kids school. I can't believe she came this year, she just had a baby 2 weeks ago!

I am so glad that DeAnne came over with Baby Zach. What a rock star! Out of the house just 2 weeks after a c-section with her first baby! You Rock Dee! Love you!

TRICK OR TREAT!

Gracie's first time trick-or-treating!
Well, she and Ciera did go last year but it was more them just sitting in the stroller together (in matching costumes) while Chaundra and I show them off :)

A night with the Bailey's

Miranda had a soccer tournament in Sacramento (the Boo Fest). My best friend Chaundra and her husband live in Sacramento and invited us to their house for dinner. Gracie and Ciera had fun playing together and even took a bath together. My other kids had a great time playing with Ciera's baby sister Sasha. As for the tournament... I'll let Dave tell you...

We played the number one team in California... we played a great game... we lost one to zero... but we outplayed them, out-hustled them, out-shot them 8-to-1... unfortunately for us, their one shot went in (off of a handball I might add), and none of our found the back of the net. Still a great game from the girls and good to know we can play with the best.

Happy Birthday Auntie Debbie!




This video was taken with our little point & Shoot camera and was on the wrong setting so sorry for the bad quality.

We hope you had a great day!

We Love you!

Miranda, Coco, Adam & Gracie (mom & dad too :))

Wednesday: Puerto Vallarta

Today I said goodbye to my 30's and hello to my 40's! YIKES! I'll take lots of Margarita's today!



We went on a tour of the city today.

THE GARDEN OF EDEN RESTAURANT

This was a really cool restaurant up in the mountains. The food was good and the girls had a great time swinging from the rope swing and falling into the water. Adam had a great time swimming and playing in the water :)

DINNER AT THE CHEEKY MONKEY WITH THE COCO'S TEACHER AND HER HUSBAND

It was so great that we were able to spend some time with Coco's second grade teacher and her husband. There were vacationing at a resort near Puerto Vallarta and were able to meet us for dinner.

LOOKS LIKE WE FOUND NEW BABYSITTERS :)
