Halloween Party

We had a last minute Halloween party for the kids. 7 kids wound up on sugar gets pretty crazy. They all had their costumes and clothes off by the end of the night. It seemed like all of the sudden there were a bunch of naked kids running around. Imagine if all 12 kids showed up. Everyone had fun, and it was great to get a shot of all the kids, no matter how much bribing we had to do. I was standing behind the camera with a large bowl of candy...that may have been the picture to have! Jake and Ty were our little superheros...Superman and Spiderman.

Fire!

We were called to evacuate voluntarily during the big San Diego fires, there were a couple fires heading our way nearby. Here are some pictures we took before we evacuated.

Pumpkin Patch

The kids love going to the pumpkin patch, even though Jake decided to not show it. A cranky moment I'm sure. We had a great time and got to go with our friends Todd and Shereen.

Palm Desert Trip #3 - Girls Only

Another great trip with the girls...maybe a little too good. No pregnant mamas this time, and everyone made it. We went out at night and hung out by the pool during the day. These trips save me every year. A great break from the kids (and the hubbies). I love hanging out with them, we laugh so much!!

Kim's 30th

Matt's mom surprised me with a party for my 30th. It was so nice to hang out with all my family and friends at the same time. I am so blessed!!! My blog is a little out of order...this was in September, but I just got the pictures.

Ty 2nd Bday

I can't believe how quick he is growing. He is the sweetest and happiest little thing. We celebrated his birthday at Nana Di's.

Swim Lessons

Surfing with the Uncles

I just got these pics. The boys are so lucky to have such great uncles. Mommy and daddy got a break, while Jake spent the day surfing with his uncles. Since Matt and all his brothers surf I am sure Jake and Ty will be out there tearing it up before we know it.

Pics

10th Anniversary

Here is our attempt at taking a picture of ourselves on our trip to Cabo San Lucas. We had such a great time. We forget how hectic it gets with the kids. It was nice to just relax. We pretty much slept and ate, with a few ventures into town, and a ride on a waverunner. We had a beautiful suite, and this pic was taken from our balcony. It is hard to believe it has already been 10 years. Can't wait to see what adventures the next 10 will bring!
