Christmas 2018

This year we did gift opening the weekend before Christmas and on Christmas we went to visit Sean's family in Northern California. We visited the beach where we collected a ton of shells. We had a wonderful Brunch at Uncle John's house. The children were given gifts from Gram, and Aunt Sadie. Also an aunt an uncle I had never met before knitted adorable hats for them. I hope I still have some pictures since my phone reset.

Christmas Eve 2018

We spent Christmas Eve this year in Modesto, Ca. Per my family tradition we made gingerbread houses, but this year Sean made homemade gingerbread for them, and for his co-worker's. They loved it and so did we! These houses were too good not too eat, and we had a blast decorating them.

So as always I am a bit behind on the blog. Here is our video of Christmas Eve's gingerbread house making 2018.

Bridget's Birthday Vlog

Halloween 2018

So today we went to Sienna's very first Halloween parade, and grandma helped me take the kids trick or treating. Yesterday Sienna had her first field trip to a play called once I was a pirate.

 Bridget scratched Gabriel's eye really bad monday, but luckily we had some stuff that numbs eyes. Sean put an eye patch on so he wouldn't rub it in his sleep I told him he was a pirate to try to make it fun. A little bit later it fell over both his eyes and he excitedly said, "Now I have two eye patches." I told him, "I'll fix that so you can see," and pulled it back up. Then he said, "No eyed pirates don't know where to go. If parrots eat their eyeballs then they won't be able to see."

Bridget picked out all light green decorations for her birthday tomorrow and is excited to have a donut cake, and I am excited to have Sean home for it.

My parent's house is in what is known as the party cul-de-sac, and had an awesome party. Here are some pictures from that.

Day of the Dead

Our day of the dead ofrenda's set up to remember those close to us who have passed on. Cookies and "beer" for Sean's grandpa, and gummy bears for my grandma. It was fun talking to the kids about them and sharing memories.
