Legoland (again)!
















We have a yearly membership to Legoland and the kids love it so much!! They have the park decorated for Christmas right now and the kids loved it! We went last weekend and spent the whole day. I think I was more tired when we got home than they were.

Christmas Decorations




We love decorating for Christmas each year and we try to do it on either Thanksgiving or the day after. Here is a couple of pictures of this years decorations.

Special Moment


I was cleaning my upstairs the other day and walked into my room to find Marcus reading to Sophia in our bed. They were so cute I had to run get my camera.

Camping in the backyard!







Ok, so I'm sure as many of you know I am not very adventurous. I have always wanted to go camping but don't really like the idea of staying in a tent out in the wilderness so we decided to camp in our yard. We set up our tent and camped out the night before Thanksgiving. We made a "campfire" in our old charcoal grill and roasted marshmallows and made smores. We also had hotdogs in our tent and told ghost stories with flashlights. It did rain a little but we still had a really great time.

Feeding the Seagulls







After going to the Dia De los Muertos we decided to head over and get some lunch. We went through the drive through because it is way too hard going into eat with our two little ones. We decided to just sit in the car and eat and while we were eating we noticed some seagulls. We opened our moon roof and put a french fry on it and closed it. The seagulls instantly flew down on top of our car and started fighting over the french fry. The kids laughed so hard and thought it was just the funniest thing ever.

Dia De los Muertos







Each year Oceanside celebrates the Day of the Dead. A Latin tradition where the families build alters to invite their deceased family members to come back and celebrate their life with them. The food looked fantastic and their were many neat booths with skull crafts and art. We had a good time but it start to rain which is not common here so we didn't stay too long.

Halloween











I am finally posting about Halloween! Geno was gone the week of Halloween and came back on Halloween so we had to drive to San Diego to get him at the airport. We made it back at 6:02 just in time to go trick or treating around our neighborhood. The kids had so much fun but Sophia pooped out after about 1 street.
