Merry Christmas!!!

WE MISS YOU!!!!!

We have a had a great time the last few days, and everyone must have been good this year, because Santa took good care of us. We went to the zoo Thursday to see Santa and have taken it pretty easy today. We opened presents and played with them, went to Tangled and played outside today (it was 50). Thanks to everyone for all the wishes and presents!! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. WE LOVE YOU!!!!

The Big Game

Last week Q-jo finally played at the Y' like he does at home. He scored 6 or 7 baskets and couldn't stop smiling as you may notice on one of these videos. We told him he had to play hard or we wouldn't put him in winter basketball, and when the game was over he said to me, " Will you sign me up for Coach Keith's team for winter, now?!!" Obviously, we did. :)

The Cutest Reindeer Ever!!

Here he is, Donner the Reindeer, making his acting debut.Yes, his nose is black, part of the costume. You may notice he is a bit more engaged than he was last year in the kindergarten music performance. He was VERY excited to have a little part in the performance and did a great job!! And all the first graders were adorable!! He chose to wear the nice shirt and tie all on his own, so we had him take a picture with his teacher Mrs. Gutierrez, whom he adores ( that is a new word Quinn has learned and constantly brings home paragraphs he writes at school about things he "adores").
Zoe has some new dance moves that we thought you might enjoy seeing too, we can't leave her out.

Happy Friday to all!!

PS. Not sure how that giant picture ended up at the top, but didn't think anyone had seen the "toothless Quinn" yet.

A taste of b-day fun!

Just a few shots from Sat. and Zoe's birthday cinamon rolls on Thursday. Grant wasn't loving the camera, but Max was!

The Big Run

There has been quite a bit of excitement around here since Zoe turned 5 on Thursday, but the most exciting event for the Birthday boy, Quinn, occurred Sat. afternoon at his football game. He loves playing flag football, and his team hasn't been able to muster much offense this season until the 3rd to last play on Sat. The person holding the camera got a little excited too, so you can't see that he made it about 3 feet from scoring before someone snagged his flag. Zoe, also scored her second goal of the season, this video is from a couple weeks ago...we haven't gotten the goals on video. Many more pictures and videos from the B-day events will be coming soon!

Thanks for all the calls and presents!!

Been a long time since Mommy added any pictures and videos, and we've had a busy summer. Some of this may be out of order. This looks like our camping trip this summer. Quinn and I were master grillers and Mommy said it was the best hot dog ever! Quinn won free tickets at the Sky Sox game for throwing the fastest in his age group. Daddy said his wind up reminded him of the Mad Hungarian.

The first grader

Here he is...all ready for first grade. So far things have gone well at school. As hard as it is to believe, he is still VERY well behaved according to everyone I ask. Zoe loves her new bike and was riding all around tonight. We are off to get to bed early tonight..this morning we were all a little tired and grumpy.

Love you!
