We have had holidays, colds, freezing weather, more colds, and now a new year.
I'll just give you a barrage of pictures and try to give you a summary.
Here it goes:
This summer I took the boys bowling. Um, that was a really long game...
Trying to play a game and keep the kids from getting
their heads smashed in was a lot of work.
We found a Superman and Ninja costume to try on.
The Superman costume was by far the best, which led to fighting.
We rode the metro train with Uncle Bob.
Now it is officially Bob's train. Sorry Capitol Metro.
We splashed in the rain.
Enough said about that.
We did the pumpkin patch thing which included a wagon ride, corn maze (with eye gouging corn stalks) and farm animals.
We attempted the Halloween thing this year.
Vampires can wear shorts right?
Tomo trapped a racoon on our deck. Now if only he could catch the squirrels chewing on our house. :)
The boys started entertaining themselves and Tomo by reading to him.
The day after Thanksgiving we decided it was too nice to stay inside so we went to Georgetown Lake.
We had our first Merrilltown Ward Christmas party, and Matthew and Seth were eager to tell Santa what they wanted for Christmas.
Later in the month we stayed out way to late to see the Austin Trail of Lights.
The highlight was probably the bus ride to the lights.
And then you might say Christmas was the finale, but I would have to say the most talked about event of the season was taking the boys to Paul's office. The visit included ice cream, goodies and Santa. Now the boys think that's all Dad does when he goes to work... eat ice cream.
I know this post doesn't really count for super informational, but at least I'm caught up. :)
