Feliz Dia de Accion de Gracias

Happy Thanksgiving from Lima, Peru!

We have much to be thankful for this year.  Spent the day with friends enjoying the sunshine and of course eating until we couldn't move.

 This year we are most thankful for having Cuzco join our family.  He brings us lots of adventures, happiness and always keeps us on our toes.

Bryce and the Shot Put

November 22, 2016

Bryce started Track and Field this semester.  They had their first meet today and Bryce was in the shot put event.  Each person gets 3 tries to throw the ball the farthest.  She really had fun and enjoyed experiencing the competition.  Here are a few pictures from the day! Her event was the farthest away from the stands, so you have to look really close to find her.

Warming up!

Pep talk for the group from Coach Callahan.

 Her first throw.

This is my favorite picture of the day.

Happy Halloween

October 31, 2016

Halloween seemed to have snuck up on us this year.  This was the first year we did not carve pumpkins.  The kids didn't ask, and honestly I did not suggest it.   But costumes were put together and they all had fun with their friends at the trunk or treat that the school puts on every year.  We even had a costume for Cuzco this year.

My hair lady came over and colored the tips of the girls' hair.  I think doing that made up for the lack of pumpkins.

Layne getting pink tips of color.

Bryce getting purple tips of color.

Halloween morning...Graham was a surfer, Bryce a nerd, and Layne a Ladybug.  I can't forget, Cuzco was a bee!

 I was able to snap some pictures of the girls with their friends but Graham was no where to be seen.

I know this picture is blurry but it was the only one with everyone including Cuzco looking at the camera!
