Fremont Older hiking

Before it starts raining this weekend, we went for a quick hike in Fremont Older. Went up to Hunter's Point. Some parts were really steep.

Nice views of Silicon Valley

Taking pictures

Downhill, finally!

Joie's 1st Birthday and Red Egg and Ginger party!

Joie turned 1 and we all got together and celebrated. There was a lot of food (chinese buffet) and so many good friends.

Here, Bella and I are posing with the birthday gal. (That Bella is so tall!)

Showing Joie how to be careful when holding an egg.....

Reading to Bella (I think)

How we spent our day off (MLK day)

Went to Mountain View for a bike ride around the Shoreline. It was pretty foggy and chilly, but we still had fun riding around. Too bad we couldn't see much though.

Up ahead is a boat play structure. It was pretty cool.

Brendan was riding pretty fast...for a little guy.

On the "pier"...see, so foggy!

A full Saturday

Today was Logan's birthday party and we had so much fun!! Plus, we visited the fortune cookie factory - which is kind of lame....

Then, we went to the Cable Car Museum....

And THEN...we went to see Yoda. Yeah. Yoda.

Here are some pictures from today...others you will find in 80th month...

Coming down the bouncy slide...whooo hoooo....I was one sweaty kid after this...

I was "in charge" of Joie for the picture...but I was scared she was going to fall!

Learning some bball

Up up up...

Practicing good form

got some air!

What we did to the gingerbread house

Before the mayhem....

Having so much fun!

The Holidays

I just love the holidays. Not only do I get time off from school, but we spend lots of time with family! And it's no fun without the family, right?

First, we went to Jenna's house, for Christmas Eve...the next morning we opened presents and it was chaos!

Here's a great family shot...it's very hard to get everyone to look at the same time...

Then we went to Reno where I went skiing. First we went to Mt Rose, and even though it was blustery, I enjoyed every minute of my lesson. Brendan....did not.

The second day, we went to Tahoe Donner and it was a beautiful day. I rode a double chair lift, and then the quad (okay, so there are only 2 chair lifts at TD, but I did both!!). I'm getting much better and am now in level 4!

Here I am leading the pack!

So excited to get on the chair lift.

Here it comes...

Okay, got my butt on...

Made it! Phew! I sat next to this nice lady...but I can't remember what we talked about.

Went this this funny store in Reno called Cabela's...They have lots of hunting stuff...

And fishing equipment.
