Christmas fun with Snapchat

Just a few fun pictures from Christmas

Bouldering with friends

Alice has been in Girl Scouts since she was in kindergarten. One patch a few of the girls decided to earn was for rock climbing.  The place we took them to is actually a bouldering gym because there are no harnesses. You climb up, you climb down.....or you fall onto the 3' thick mats. 

No girls were harmed in the earning of this patch.

Halloween 2018

Alice LOVES Halloween, and she LOVES Stranger Things.  This year she dressed up as Eleven.  Here are some pics of her and her friends.

When we first moved into the neighborhood over 15 years ago, Halloween was a pretty pathetic event.  Most houses did not even participate.  Over the last 2 years we have seen an increase in houses giving out candy which has made trick or treating in our neighborhood much more enjoyable!

Dad’s still got it!

Alice may be almost as tall as her mother, but her dad can still pick her up side down.....while I stand by panicked she will be dropped on her head. We'll see if he can do this again next year!

Brief Update: New Phone, Fifth Grade, Cool Shoes

Alice got a new phone yesterday.  She upgraded from her iPhone 5 to an iPhone 6.  She was stoked.  My friend Jeff was again the generous source for Alice's phone upgrade.  We got it all set up and working the first night and Cristy picked her up a new phone case on her way home.  Alice was very excited and didn't even linger in bed this morning, instead she sat in bed and played with her new phone :-).

Also, here is our fifth grade, first day pic!!!

Fashionistas please note the killer kicks, converse mid-tops FTW.

The puppies are back!

Remember the puppy surprise? Well I was at my friends house and if happends that the little boy who had Marie, Simba and Gus was her neighbor. We played at his house and I saw the puppies that came in my backyard. Marie got lost in Mexico but his grandma found her. Simba and Gus where there and the dad of the puppies were there too. I was happy that I got to see those puppies agin and it was very fun and the puppies were so nice!
