Halloween At Last


Grayson is dressed and ready for Halloween in his Lightning McQueen Pit Crew costume. He has been counting down the days.











"The trick-or-treaters are here!"

Everytime someone would come to the door, Grayson would dance around yelling "They're here!".







It's time to check out all the loot.
Yummy!


Manly Work

Jeff tries his hand at a different kind of demo. He takes the afternoon off from doing demos on his computer to demolishes a portion of the yard and patio.










After several days of searching and a lot of hard work, he is finally able to find the gas line that goes to the barbecue island. Now he is ready to install his new barbecue.

Treats in the Streets


Jeff (aka the Geico Caveman) took the boys to a Halloween street fair in Old Towne Orange.













Our little pumpkin wakes up from a nap to survey the scene.













Grayson is excited to get lots of candy. He is wearing his engineer costume from last year because he insists on saving his new costume for Halloween.

Grayson's Birthday Party


Good times in the bouncy house.













Cole is a bit young for the bounce house. He prefers to hang out with Nana and Grandpa.












It's not a party until Uncle Zakky arrives.













Time for the cake. Grayson chose a chocolate chip ice cream cake. Yum!

Pumpkin Patch


Grayson is getting ready for Halloween by visiting the pumpkin patch. He is about to take a train ride around the park. All Aboard!

Potty On Dude!


Grayson filled in his potty chart (on wall) and got to pick a special toy from the store. Of course he went for a new car. Vroom Vroom!

Emily's Swim Class


Emily's little 3 year old fans from a later class have been heard saying, "She swims like a mermaid."











Doing a few warm up laps.













Olympic hopeful?
Maybe in a few years.

Cole's First Bath


Grayson and Daddy are excited about giving Cole his first bath.













Cole is not as eager for bath time.













After Daddy sings to him, Cole calms down. He is still not sure he likes it yet.

Thank you Nana and Grandpa


Cole really enjoys his new vibrating, bouncy chair. If only they made one big enough for adults.

Football Sunday


Cole watching football with Daddy.













Dreaming of a winning Raiders season...
oh well, maybe next season Cole.
