Fall 2014

Taft was all set for Kindergarten when it came to reading. It's such a cool thing to see you kids learn to read! 

First Day of School! Taft's school starts at 7:45 but he likes to do Running Club so we're usually there by 7:20. It's early.  I really look forward to the weekend when I don't have to tell anyone to HURRY in the morning. 

Not-so-secret secret way to school 


Fall is a great time to visit San Diego. It's still totally summer and is usually pretty warm and perfect for the beach or in this case, the Legoland Waterpark. This watermark is perfect for the boys current ages. We love it!

This was several months ago, but I just think these misspelled notes are so cute. "Dad we are very proud of you." 

Dress like a Pirate Krispy Kreme Day

"Dad, Wow! You are good at work. By Mayor." "Mom you are good at taking care. By Mayor" "Luke, Wow!" You are a good brother."  





These boys LOVE cereal. I really try to talk them into other breakfast foods but they won't have it. Occasionally they'll eat pancakes, but they just love, love, love cereal. 

See! Fall in San Diego! 


Pond by our house

Happy Halloween!

We met a Storm Trooper at Taft's school carnival

Chunko!



Running Fool! He just received his medal for running 100 laps since school started. 

Occasionally when Seth is working the weekend, we'll stop by to visit. The boys love checking out his office and some of his tools. 

Children's Museum 


Aunt Tates came to visit! 

Our ward had a Thanksgiving dinner followed by Karaoke. The boys sang "Everything is Awesome". 

He needs a bigger bike, but he sure is cute. 

Taft found a rat skull in our backyard. Blech! He kept asking Seth to call "the scientists" to let them know about his discovery.

Our zoo trips have become more infrequent with school, but we still love when we get to go! 

Kindergarten Thanksgiving Feast

Blurry picture, but some of Taft's favorites: Samar, Dashiel, Eli 
Lots of Legoland for this crew


We had two families over for Thanksgiving this year. We've been having the Thanksgiving with the same friends since living in San Diego. Another family joined in this year and it was great! We love this tradition. This was a little post-turkey WWF. 8 boys and only 1 girl between the three families.  

Air mattresses may be uncomfortable but they are good for something!

I just love this squishy baby!

The notes are really cute. So fun when they start to put together their thoughts and write them down...you are good with the translations as well! Ah, air mattresses at the bottom of the stairs. Brilliant. I bet Seth loves it the most when you pop into his work.
