Festival of Trees

Alicia's first dance performance was at the festival of trees. She laughed the whole time because she said she was "a little afraid". It was so cute.

 

 

 

Alicia and Maddi's favorite tree was the care bear tree. I have to admit that we only saw the first few rows of trees though.

 

Sterling really liked this Jazz tree.

 

Gabe really liked this motorcycle tree and Sterling did too.

 

Asher was such an angel during Alicia's dance performance. He sat in his stroller the whole time. So by the time we started looking at trees he was wired. I got this picture of him right before we left.

 

Gabe's Spanish Immersion Christmas Program

At the beginning of December Gabe had his Spanish Immersion Christmas program at our city's Christmas Tree lighting. Gabe sang several Christmas songs in Spanish. He did really well.

 

While Gabe was getting ready to perform Asher, Alicia & Sterling were getting to sit on Santa' Lap.

 

Some pictures from November

The weekend after Thanksgiving we decorated the Christmas tree. We purposely decorated the tree when Asher was taking his nap. The kids looked were so excited to decorate the tree. They were adorable.

 

 

 

In November Asher got his first haircut. We love his curls but it was getting too long by his neck so Ryan trimmed it a bit. Asher is so adorable.

 

 

 

 

Sterling's Turkey he covered up with leaves for school.

 

For Gabe's book report he made a puppet and a poster about Cupid.

 

Gabe has a Thanksgibvng Progrm at school.

 

Halloween

Gabe: Mexican wrestler (For school he was a beat-up soccer player but said nobody knew what he was so Ryan had to come up with a costume with our dress-up box that Gabe liked)

Sterling: Anakin Skywalker (Was cousin Cameron's costume several years ago)

Alicia: Tinker Bell (We got this dress-up costume last year)

Asher: Fireman (I bought this costume for Sterling when he was Asher's age)

 

Gabe's first pinewood derby

Gabe recently had his first pinewood derby. Ryan and Gabe a lot of time together working on the car. Ryan even bought a kit for Sterling and helped him make a car. They did everything by the rules and didn't even add whatever stuff people were putting on the cars during the race. Gabe got third place overall. He also go the rookie of the year award.

 

 

Carving Pumpkins

We had a great time carving pumkins this year. Gabe and Sterling carved their own pumkins. Alicia poked lots of little holes while I carved hers. Asher was kind of grouchy so he just made things harder while I carved his. It was a fun memory.
