Is there a Librarian in our future?

I dont think AP needs +2.50 readers yet...but doesnt she make them look good!

A day in the rain!

I really like this picture of David with Gavin. Ren and David took Gavin down to Mission Bay a few weeks ago for the Catamarans races while I did my Super Saturday. It was totally raining and cold, but Gavin still had a good time.

Kids in their costumes

So despite all 4 of us having a cold this Halloween, that didn't stop us from taking some pictures! I had to bribe Gavin with Smarties to take pictures so you may see some candy in his mouth! Avery, our little bumblebee was really cooperative. We didn't take Gavin out trick or treating cause he and Avery were both sick, but we opened the top half of our door and he stood on his chair and just waited for all the trick or treaters to come. They would come and he would say "trick or Treat" to them, I'd give the candy out and he would yell "BYE!!!" He would stand there waiting saying "more people, momma...more people?" So even though we didn't go out, he still had fun.

Trunk or Treat

Every year our church does a trick or treating activity called Trunk or Treat where all the kids go in a big loop of all the cars trunks in the parking lot and get candy. Gavin got this down pretty quick this year! I think he made 3 loops and totally scored a bunch of candy. He would go up to the cars and as he is saying "trick or treat" he is putting his hand in their candy bowl and grabbing a ton of candy! He was batman this year and Avery was a bumblebee...except I didnt get a picture of her in her costume and she was really cute! I will have to put her in it again and snap a quick shot. Too cute not to!

Pumpkin Carving

We carved our pumpkins over at our friends Doug and Gina's house this year. Gavin and Ren carved theirs together, G didnt really like the goop in the middle of the pumpkin but liked the rest! Ren carved a Mini Cooper with flames, I did Jack Skellington, and G just free handed his! Avery's was too tiny to carve so she just got a hand drawn A.

Pumpkin Patch

Our good friends from British Columbia came to visit us last week and one of the things we did was go to Bates Nut Farm to the pumpkin patch! I love this time of year (I think I say that every year...) but I LOVE pumpkins! It was a beautiful day and Gavin was so excited to see all the pumpkins! He just runs around yelling "punkins...momma punkins!" I love it! We each picked a pumpkin, and then Gavin noticed a bunch of tiny pumpkins in a corner and ran to them and came back all excited saying "tiny punkin" So naturally we had to get it!

Little Avery Pris

Man-o-Man, this girl is cute! She is changing so fast, I feel like every day she is a little bit different. She is growing growing growing. She has pretty much grown out of her newborn clothes but she isn't quite in 3 month stuff yet. I'm a little tempted to just cut the toes out of her jammies so her feet aren't crammed. (not really) She is smiling now. She loves attention and can be totally crying and fussing but as soon as so talk to her and jiggle her little cheeks she lights up and is all smiles! I just love her to death.
