Christmas 2010

We spent Christmas eve with our family in our home, had a lot of food, and lots of gifts. We are very lucky and are so thankful for what we have...

Zoe's holiday performance

Here are a few pictures and a short video from Zoe's holiday performance where she sang and danced with her partner.

Christmas 2010 with Cruz family

We were lucky to share part of Christmas day with the Cruz family. We were so happy to see them and spend some time with them.

Halloween continued

We went trick or treating in our neighborhood again. This year we went out for over an hour and the kids got a lot of candy! The streets were full of other kids and it was a lot of fun!

Halloween Parades

Both kids had parades at school. The kids aren't allowed to wear masks to school so Ethan is more of a regular jedi than Plo Koon here. But as you can see, he still had fun with his fellow Star Wars friends!

Zoe is "Belle" from Beauty and the Beast. Here is her friend Ava (aka Snow White).

Halloween 2010 - carving pumpkins

This year, the kids chose 1 pumpkin each and we decided to go to a small local pumpkin patch with no big slides or rides or attractions. We kept it simple and looked for some good shaped pumpkins for carving.

Zoe's new hair cut

Last week, Zoe finally convinced me to let her cut her hair. She wanted to have a "Dora" haircut instead of a "princess" haircut. Here are some before and after pictures. We love it - its super cute!
