Proof that it does snow in Monument Valley

It was pretty cold today, but I was surprised to look outside and see it snowing. I love the snow, so I made Devon and Spencer bundle up and come enjoy it with me. Spencer apparently doesn't remember the snow last year, he thought it was just cold, and sticking to his face! I am excited that it snowed though- now it can feel like Christmas!

At the beach

We went to the beach while we were in San Diego over Thanksgiving. It was pretty cold, so we thought that would deter Spencer from the water. Well, it didn't. So he went from a nicely dressed, warm boy to a white trash baby hanging out in his diaper. The last pictures says it all, we were chasing him into the water the whole time. We'll have to go back when it is warm and let him go crazy (maybe with a swimsuit this time!)

San Diego Zoo

We went to San Diego for Thanksgiving. We stayed with Devon's aunt and uncle. It was a great time! On Friday we went to the San Diego zoo. These are some kids we found along the way J/K. Some of Devon's cousins came with us, McKay, Blake, and Annika.
Our favorite part of the zoo is the aviaries. It is like you get to walk into the cage with the animals, and the birds fly all around you. The bird i the second picture walked right up to Spencer. He was so shocked he didn't talk or move. Here are some more cool aviary pictures.





We got to ride on the Skyfari, which was really great because it takes you clear across the park. I thought Spencer would be nervous- but he loved it! He was sad to get off! The other kids loved it to. We got to go on it twice.


Spencer's favorite parts of the zoo were climbing through the tunnel, petting the goat and ride the Merry-Go-Round. He enjoyed the rest too- but those were definite favorites.



Here are some more cool pictures of the zoo.
