Just hangin' around

Caleb found this sweet ride in a friend's garage.
"Mom, can we keep it?"

These brothers are the best of friends.

So are these two.

"Cheese!"
Caleb says "cheese" when he uses cameras or binoculars.

Taking apart a clock for school.

Caleb was playing with stamps when he decided to see how well they work on his lips.

Budding artist.

Grumpy teaching Carter what not to do with fire.

Grumpy scaring his grandson to death with a fireball.
Don't worry, there was a fire extinguisher handy.

Grumpy made up for it with a motorcycle ride.

Jayden scolding her grandfather for scaring her big brother.

Big wheel!

Searching for cool leaves.

Howdy!

Got bucked off and still smiling.

I always want to be a little boy and......

......eat candy!!!
Trick or treat part 2: Home edition.

We only got a skiff of snow, but the kids were so excited!

Giddy up, Daddy!

Jayden and one of her best friends, Uni.

We happened to be at the park when they were bringing over the Christmas tree.
Caleb was mostly excited to see the forklift.

Sipping on some pickle juice.
The boy takes after his big brother.

In the afternoon, the sun helps decorate Jayden's room with sparkles!
(That's a sequin pillow on the bed, reflecting purple and gold sunlight on the ceiling and walls)

Caleb likes to be the center of attention at this wedding reception.
Or, at least, the center of the walkway.

Carter worked hard to ace this math test!

 

Yay!  We are hiking again!

We made it to the top!

Time to throw rocks.
Caleb: "Whooooa!"

Fireman Caleb to the rescue!
