Haunted House


In Old Town San Diego we visited the historic Whaley House. I finally made it! (The last time we were here I decided not to go on the tour and I regretted it). The Travel Channel has named it the most haunted house in America. I went in with Patrick and took the tour. It was a weird old house, but we didn't see or feel any ghosts. I think Patrick was disappointed a little.

A Very Merry Un-Birthday


Abby had to go on the tea cups at Disneyland. I told her I would go as long as we didn't spin-I'm not that young anymore.

Meeting Mickey

The kids really are having fun-despite the looks on their faces! It's always interesting to see how kids will react to the characters. Christian was pretty nervous when he saw a life-size Mickey.

New Beginnings


Sunday we had our young women New Beginnings night. Everything turned out great. We did a cooking theme and made a cookie pizza with fruit representing the young women values. Amee stepped in at the last minute and did a great job doing the cooking demonstration. Autumn's boss created this cute sign with vinyl lettering to give to each of the girls. Her company name is You Don't Say Vinyl. We were so busy getting everything set up that I forgot to take a picture of the decorations and refreshments. It's always a challenge turning the church cultural hall into something "cute".

Mittens for Socks


Christian found a tiny pair of baby mittens with no thumbs and brought them to me to put on his feet. I put them on him and they only covered have of his little foot, but he didn't care. He then wanted his boots on. He walked around with mittens and boots on his feet most of the day. When I took them off of him, his circulation was being cut off by the elastic in the mittens, but he still didn't seem to mind! What a funny little guy.

Rainboots


Aren't these the cutest boots? What would we do without Costco?
