Santa Train

This morning we went on the Santa Train. It has become an annual tradition and the kids look forward to it all year long-- especially Dylan. Here are some pictures from this year's trip....

Christmas Fun

The last few weeks have been busy, busy, busy with lots of holiday activities. We've had parties, school programs, tea parties and all other sorts of fun things going along with the holidays. Things are finally settling down and we are very much looking forward to celebrating a relaxing Christmas at home. Happy Holidays to  you all!!

Some Fun Fall Photos

I bought a Groupon a few weeks ago for our Christmas cards & realized after that I had to order the cards before November 15-- which is a little early... even for me :-) The next month or so is pretty packed and the weather is starting to turn, so we headed out to Mumm Napa a few Sundays ago to snap some pics of the kids while the sun was still shining. We got a lot of cute pictures-- I think Dylan is finally over his determination to ruin all my photos! Here are a few cute ones... 

Halloween

We celebrated Halloween this year with the usual festivities.... lots of friends over for dinner, then trick-or-treating with all the kiddos with the wine wagon in tow :-) Here are some pics from all the activities...
