Popsicles make everything better!

Kai and Nicolas were busy fighting over who was going to play with Gordan and who was going to play with Thomas (trains) Introduce popsicles and all is better. :)

Cayucos Pier with Eva

Here are some pictures of the extra windy day we went to the pier. The waves were spraying water on us all the way up on the pier. Even thought the trip was short lived, it was still fun!

Thanksgiving!

We had a great (even though it was a sick house) Thanksgiving this year. I must say my mom and I were quite a team in the kitchen! This was our best year by far! We had a potluck...Mike and Suzanne brought mashed potatoes and veggies. Grandpa Joe contributed (in his absence even!) roll, 2 pies and Cool Whip. Grandpa Ray brought a beautiful dish (that I got to keep, yippie!) of almonds.

My mom and I prepared a turkey breast, a spiral cut ham, candied yams, green bean caserole w/ our own homemade mushroom sauce and Paula Dean's country stuffing. I will definetely be holding on to these recipies. Corny, I know, but here are some pictures! :)

Sunsets....

We have been having the most beautiful sunsets here on the coast. I am no photographer, most of my pics are with my camera phone...but here are some of the pics I took recently from our deck. The pictures really don't even compare...

Madi & Nic Pics!

Leave it to Nicolas!

We have been doing a lot of walking around in the local shops...Nicolas loves to show me what he wants. To ward of tantrums..I have been telling him I will take a picture & send it to Santa.

So here is one of them...according to the tag it is a dinosaur puppet...uh, ok. Looks part cheetah or leopard to me! Strange...glad I have a picture for Santa, he'd never believe me!

My Lil Pirate

Nicolas will find any excuse to dress up...as of now his favorite costume is still a pirate!
