Magical Principals

The boys got inspired with the dress-up clothes yesterday and decided they wanted to be "pretty and fancy". Why? Well, because they were "principals and principals are always fancy and pretty", of course. They also had magic.

Ice Hunting

On one of the latest cold and icy days we had here, we headed out hunting. Hunting for ice to crack, smash and investigate. Here are some of our trophies!

Brewery Time

Chris finally has his home brewery up and running again after a nearly decade hiatus. Beaver is stoked, despite not being able to enjoy the end result.

We found this cute sloth at the beach.

Christmas sweaters

The boys looked so sweet in their nearly matching sweaters that I thought I'd simply snap a cute photo or two of them. Easier said than done...

ok. Now stop moving your hands.

Oliver, sit still...

Levi, I need your whole body to stay still.

Could you both smile and look at the camera?

Those were better smiles, but I need you to not move.

Levi! 

 
Next time without moving, ok?

Almost! 

Stay still!

Cute! Oliver can you smile too?

I give up.

Autumn joy

Hallowe'en

 

Here are the little guys picking out their pumpkins for carving. The two they got at the pumpkin patch field trip were apparently too precious to carve. One was very small and the other was a carnival squash anyway!

They carved the pumpkins themselves. Why not?

 I caught this elusive raven on film:

Here is Bear in his crocodile costume at the pumpkin path celebration.
