SOCCER

 Owen started soccer this fall--he is loving it! He is not the best player on his team, but he does have fun and is learning how to play as a team. His team is the Green Gators-they are so cute!

Walking With Dinosaurs

Months and months ago Owen saw a commercial for the show "Walking With Dinosaurs" and really wanted go. One of the final shows was herein September at Staples Center and since Scott works there...he was an awesome dad and remembered to get tickets for us to see it!
The dinosaurs were AMAZING!! They were so lifelike-it felt like we were sitting in the middle of Jurassic Park. The kids loved the dinosaurs, yes, even Emme. (She kept asking if it was her dinosaur!) Such a great show. Not a very long show, it is geared towards kids, but worth it! So much fun!!

 T-REX!!!

Well...I tried to load a cool video of some raptors fighting a brachiosaurus but Blogger is not letting me. I will have to try again later!

Apple Picking

Ahh..Oak Glen! We come here every year and I always love it! We have great BBQ for lunch, walk around the cute shops, sample lots of yummy foods and pick apples!
This year there were only a few of us: Jamie and Kylie, Kylee, Owen, Emme and Brittany. We had a really fun afternoon and I was so glad the Jamie and Kylie came out with us!

 Nice apple Kylee!

 Owen and Kylie-busy little apple pickers!

Emme had to sample all the apples we were picking...well, actually 

all the apples on the ground under the trees we were picking from!

Kindergarten

So...time to do some quick updating!

Yes, it is almost Halloween and I am posting pictures from Owen's first day of kindergarten! I know I am behind! Owen has, well, a different teacher. We had some issues the first few weeks of school but things are steadily getting better. He is such a big kid now! I remember when he was born so clearly and now he is off in school all day!
