Thanksgiving at Disneyland

Since Warren and Matt went on a trip by themselves, I decided to take the girls to Disneyland over the Thanksgiving break. We had lots of company while we were down there. My sister, Pam and all her family and our friends, the Barnes family, all went down that week too. We got a three day pass for both Disneyland and California Adventure. Here are some pictures of some of the highlights.

They had the park all decorated for Christmas.

Water Polo Season is Over!!

Kylie really enjoyed water polo this year!! She has improved tremendously this year! She was really fun to watch. The team did a great job. They made it to the playoffs, but lost in the second round. Kylie scored 5 goals, had 3 assists and 7 steals this season. Great job Kylie!!!

Halloween 2011

Halloween was exciting this year!! First off, there was a trunk or treat at the church a couple of days before Halloween. Carlin invited a couple of friends from school to go with her. On Halloween, Carlin went with a group of her friends trick or treating. My sister, Pam, convinced me to let Miranda and Kylie go with her kids trick or treating (I was going to make them stay home this year.) So they all went together. They all got a ton of candy!!!

Warren and Matt take a trip to Washington

Warren, Matt, and John (Warren's Dad) had quite the adventure in October. They drove to Washington and arranged with a couple of John's cousins to go fishing. They spent three days out on the rivers fishing. They caught A LOT of salmon. We have a lot of salmon in our freezer. It tastes really good too. Here are some pictures of their adventure.
