Give Me a Break

Here's Jeneva the day after she broke her arm by falling off a chair. She hated wearing the sling. She doesn't seem to care if it is Peanuts characters, she just refuses to wear it. The cast comes off on January 6th.

Meet Yukon

We got a surprise when Jerry came home from work one day and brought a dog with him. The kids were very excited and Jerry organized a vote to determine the dog's name. After several rounds of voting and much waffling by the younger kids the winner was Yukon. He is 7 months old and is great with the kids. Unfortunately for him it is common to see Jeneva walking behind him holding his tail tightly.

Happy Birthday Times Three

To make it easy for my family we celebrated the kids birthdays with one big party at the beginning of November. Levi had his own chocolate chip cookie cake.

Jeneva and Georgiana had a girls cake. They all had a great day with their cousins and all those presents.

Trick or Treat

The kids had a great time doing trunk or treat at the church then we went down to Simi Valley to trick or treat with their cousins. The result: too much candy!
