November



 The kids were excited about the snow they tried to eat it off of everything!  Calvin loves this hat, that is a little to small for him, but he doesn't want to wear anything else.
 We still love to go swimming. My mom came to visit and we all had fun in the pool.
 The girls just relaxing
 Jodi was so excited for her birthday. She got lots of babies and had lots of fun with friends and family who came to visit.


 Jodi wanted to have a Mini Mouse/ Princess/ Kitty cat cake. So this little girl gets what she wants and she got a Mini Mouse Princess cake with Kitty cat cupcakes. We love her so much she is our little princess. She has grown up so much and acts way older than 2!  She is such a girl, she loves to get her hair done, nails painted and pink everything.

 Just another day with my kids finding whatever to wear or dress up in for the day. They have great imaginations and it is fun to see what they come up with.
 I am a Webelow scout leader and Calvin wants to be a scout so bad. I was sewing some patches on my shirt and Calvin said he really wanted a scout shirt so here is what we came up with. He is so cute when he wears it to scout meetings. He tries to act and do exactly what the other boys do. It is so fun to have a boy and girl and get both worlds.
 My little pirate? He loves to dress up and be different things every day.
 Jodi was suppose to be in bed and knew she would get in trouble if she came downstairs so she just stayed on the stairs.
 The kids were excited to get Christmas lights on the house.
 Since Thanksgiving was so late we decided to get a tree the weekend before. We had a fun time going to the mountains to find a tree. It has been a few years since we have done this and the kids had a great time.
 Calvin really wanted to use the saw so he was helping dad cut a branch.
 We went to see Santa at the college. It was awesome they took this great pict of the kids and had treats. The kids were so excited and it was a great start to the whole Christmas season.
 Here is our wonderful tree. I think we did pretty good. Every year we add another string of lights to the tree and it gets lighter and brighter every year!
 Of course we had to have a train.
 The kids go to go to the fire station for story time at the library. Calvin was so excited that he had to dress up for the part. He is pretty creative to come up with these outfits.
 Here they are with the fire trucks.
 For Thanksgiving we went to Twin Falls. Here is Jodi and Gma Flint as you can tell Jodi got plenty of food and treats!
 We went to this awesome light show while we were there. It was super pretty and they had so many different lights the kids had fun walking around looking for their favorites.

 Calvin with a train.

The kids had fun running up and down the isles of the greenhouse. The poinsettias were to pretty and it felt like Christmas. We had a great time visiting family and doing fun things for the holidays!

October

 A big thing that happened this month was that Calvi got some more dental work done. The last time we did this he was to little and had to be put under cause he was scared. This time around he was a little older so we took him in one time to see how he would do. He did great!  It was awesome and he was so excited that he did so well and that he got 2 "robot teeth" out of it. He thought the dentist was pretty cool and was excited to go back!
 I don't know how this happened but we sometimes find the kids in weird places after we put them to bed.
 Calvin really wanted vampire teeth for Halloween and we had to dig in this huge pile of Halloween stuff to find the WHITE ones, not color ones cause teeth are white.
 The kids love to hang on their dad it is funny to watch what they come up with.  Jodi wearing one of her Halloween costumes.
 We took a fun night time adventure. Cavlin was so excited to be able to ride his bike in the dark a few blocks down to go look at the spooky Halloween house. He loved it and said he was not even scared by the music and spooky lights.
 The kids earned a little Halloween craft they had fun putting together.
 Once a month the library has a movie night for anyone to come see.  The kids love to go and get a little treat and watch a movie at the library movie theater.
 Just going out to run some errands.
 Calvi wanted to be so many things for Halloween it was a good thing we had a few times he could dress up. This time he wanted to be a robot. Jodi saw her kitty cat costume from last year and that was the only thing she wanted to wear. Luckily she could still squeeze into it.
 Calvi loves to hang out with his Uncle Tysen. He will copy anything he does it is fun to watch them.
 The kids learned that they could push the stool up to the window and they were tall enough to see out.
 Here are the kids ready to go Trick or Treating. Calvin is now a pirate and Jodi still a kitty cat.
We ended Halloween night at Gma Gpa Tysens house. The kids had a lot of fun.  Calvin got a bunch of candy and decided he had enough and was to cold so he went back to the house to help Gpa hand out candy.  Jodi thought the whole getting candy thing was so awesome, she kept right up with Tysen and got a whole bunch of candy. It was funny to watch her she kept saying "wait Tyseee" and she was so excited when people would give her candy. It was super fun to watch the kids and see how different they were.
