1ST TIME IN THE SNOW





I've seen the snow when I was a baby but I was to little to play in it. We had a cold front come our way which dumped about an inch of snow. It was fun to wake up and play in the snow. It feels like Christmas is around the corner.

MOMMY'S SHOES



Well, my new favorite thing is to raid mommy's closet and try on her shoes. Mommy, was going for a jog so I thought I would join her too with my new shoes. They're a little big but I will eventually grow into them.

TREE LIGHT CEREMONY


This is Bainbridge Island's Christmas tree

Santa's elves were there too

We went on a fun horse carriage ride

Every holiday season, Bainbridge Island has a Christmas tree lighting ceremony. We went on a horse carriage ride, sang Christmas songs and had a count down to turn on the Christmas tree lights.

HUNTING FOR OUR CHRISTMAS TREE

We're on our way to find our tree

We made it to the top


This is the tree that my dad cut down

We still can't believe that my dad carried the tree down for 2 miles. I know his hand and shoulders were hurting at the end


Most people just go to Home Depot or their nearest tree lot to pick out their Christmas Tree....well my dad wanted to hike into the Olympic Mountains to cut down our tree. The Olympic mountains is an hour away from Bainbridge Island. We hiked a trail that was 2 miles one way and it was all up hill. It was an intense hike. At the very end of the trail my dad spotted a perfect tree and cut it down. He then carried the tree all the way down to our car which was 2 miles. My dad was determined to find that perfect tree and he prevailed. We still shake our heads that he carried the tree all the way down the hill.

FALL IS HERE AND WINTER IS AROUND THE CORNER

This picture was taken from our backyard

Every night we take a family stroll around our neighborhood

What up player....do you like my new winter get up

I'm testing out my new hat

It has been an amazing fall. The air is cool but crisp and the leaves are a beautiful yellow color. Now that November is here, the temperature has dropped slightly and now I have to wear my pre-winter get up gear. I'm not too crazy about wearing anything on my head and I know it's driving my mom crazy as she loves to still walk/jog with me in the stroller. She's afraid that I'm going to freeze to death.....I guess it's the SoCal in her.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN


This is my friend Katina




This is my buddy Georgia





I had a jam packed but fun day. I went trick o treating in downtown Bainbridge Island, also known as Winslow. I really didn't care about the candy but my favorite ice cream shop was giving away free ice cream so I was all over that. We then went to my buddy KenKaid's house for some yummy chili and cornbread.

PETTING ZOO AND PUMPKIN PATCH


These goats keep going into my playhouse

There are goats everywhere

This is the pony that I was afraid to ride


My first roller coaster...the train ride

We went to a place called Zoomars in San Jaun Capristrano, CA. They have a petting zoo, train ride, pony rides and a pumpkin patch for Halloween. I had a blast on the train ride. I think that's my first baby roller coaster ride. My mom wanted me to ride the pony but I kept crying every time they put me on. Maybe next year I will have the guts to do it.
