Last weekend we all went to Merced to celebrate great grandma beas's 90th birthday. Great grandma really seemed to enjoy her party, and all the family showed up to celebrate with her.

On Tuesday evening we met up with Dillon & James to go to the winter wonderland festival in Pleasant Hill. It was a really cold night but there were lots of lights and Christmas decorations and fun things to look at.

the three musketeers: james going headfirst in the styrofoam snow pool, me testing the waters a bit and dillon keeping and eye out for the moms & dads.

This weekend we went and got our Christmas tree. It was really cold outside so we had to get all bundled up tried and make it quick.

I'd point to the tree I like but I can't move my arms with all these clothes!

hey, is that a stick on the ground?

hanging ornaments, sort of.

how much you want to bet I can stick this whole thing in my mouth?
