Our Day Around Town

A couple weeks ago we decided to head down to Old Town Sacramento. It's only about 12 minutes away from us, but for some reason  we don't go there as often as we should. We also went to the State Capital too. It was a fun day hanging around Sac.

Jim and Luke

I guess Luke didn't think it was that much fun, by the look on his face. :-)

Daddy chasing after the kids!

Halloween!

This year Halloween was so much fun with Luke and Mia being a little older! 

We went to the Pumpkin Patch and picked out pumpkins and there was a bounce house there. They LOVED it!!

Taking a ride in the wagon!
They picked out their pumpkins!

Friday night Joe and Shana had a Halloween Party, so we all got to get dressed up. 

Luke and Mia were Pebbles and Bam Bam, and I was Wilma. 

Luke loved wearing his costume!

Jim was dressed as Tom Cruise from Top Gun

Just an Ordinary Day Around Here

A couple days ago I was in our office with Luke and Mia and I turned around to see that they had dumped all the paper out of the shredder. It was a mess and it made it's way onto every square inch of the floor. I figured since it was already everywhere I might as well let the kids have fun in it...and they did!

Luke throwing it up in the air!!

Our Trip To The Zoo

Saturday we decided to take the kids to the zoo! It was such a fun day! Mia and Luke love animals, so it was really fun for them to see them up close.

Here is Mia pointing at the giraffes, I thing those were her favorite!

Luke watching the monkeys

Mia was so excited!

Tigers were out and about

 Luke was in a hurry to see more animals

What a fun day!!

We're on VACATION!!!

Here we are on Vacation in Newport Beach! We are having a great time so far and have already done so much. Luke and Mia are loving it!!

Here is Mia and I in Huntington Beach. There are a bunch of stores and places to eat

This is at the hotel. Luke and Daddy practicing their putting

On the way down we stopped in Beverly Hills and drove around. We stopped at a park and let the kids play. We were the only people their with our kids. The rest of the kids there were with their nannies...haha... soooo Beverly Hills! 

This park was amazing! You can't really tell from the pictures, but it was surrounded by beautiful landscaping and mansions. So neat!

Rub- a- Dub- Dub... The Twins In The Tub!

One of Luke and Mia's favorite things is BATHTIME! And they definitely needed one after eating spaghetti! We whisked them right from the highchair to the tub! Mia's face was covered in sauce!

A Day At The Fair

On Tuesday Jim got of work early and we went to the California State Fair! Mia and Luke loved it. Here they are loving the water fountains!

The animals were their favorite part!

Good 'ol fair food

The fried zucchini was very good, but very greasy!

This baby calf was only a half hour old and taking it's first steps!

Mia looooves animals
