Trick or Treat!

This year we decided to take Jacob trick or treating for the first time.  A couple of weeks ago, I got a bag of boy clothes from my sister, and there was a cow costume inside...
John wore a giraffe sleeper that someone gave me when Jacob was born.


Jacob mostly enjoyed going to the houses.  He especially liked ringing the doorbells.  There were a couple of houses that he was really scared to go near.


Halfway through, we came back to pass out some candy.  I noticed John was really sweaty, so I changed him into a cow outfit.  For some reason, he always falls asleep when Larry carries him around...


Once we got sick of walking around, we came back to pass out candy.  Jacob LOVED it! 


He stood waiting at the door for the rest of the night passing out the candy.  He even passed out the candy he got from other houses! 


One time, he got bored waiting so he laid on the ground.  But most of the time, he stood in the doorway yelling "C'mon guys!", encouraging kids to come to our door!  It was a great night!  Well, except that Jacob cried when we decided to shut our door and turn out our porch light!

A Day at the Beach

Over a week ago, it was a nice Saturday morning.  We were just relaxing at home in our pajamas...
Larry and I started discussing what we could do that day.  After much consideration, we decided to go to...

the beach!  We packed up the kids and the car and headed to Capitola, one of my favorite beaches.  Because we live in Santa Nella, the beach is about 85 minutes away! 

John seemed pretty happy with our decision! 

And Jacob loved playing in the water.  He and his daddy walked all the way to the pier.  This picture reminds me of my single days in San Diego when we'd see "hot dads" playing with their little kids at the beach!  We can't wait to go back, but next time I'm bringing a little baby tent so John doesn't have to stay in his carseat the majority of the time!
