Holiday Show and Ice Skating

The Holiday Show that I put on with the teachers at school went off without a hitch.  Since our stage is outdoors, there was the possibility it might be cancelled due to rain.  It wasn't raining but it was cold!  I didn't end up getting a picture of Cameron since he was on the other side of the stage but I did grab one of Ashton before his class left the stage.

 I also got the gang to go out ice skating this year!  Even though not everyone was thrilled with it at the beginning, I think we'll do it again next year because they ended up loving it!  We ended the outing with Starbucks.  :)

3rd Place for Soccer!

Cameron and his teammates cleaned up (or in his words, DOMINATED) the field this morning and won a third place trophy in their division.  He is so excited since they slowly moved up the ranks and had been counted out by all of us.  They now will move on in January to the playoffs against other area teams.

Christmas concert

We attended the annual holiday concert put on by our church and I snapped a few quick photos of us all dressed up. (Minus Ashton who decided to wear his spring soccer jersey - I'm picking my battles here)  :)

Soccer end-of-season games

 Cameron and Ashton had their last games of the season.  Cameron and his team earned sportsmanship medals and because they won their game, got to go on to the playoffs.  The final game will be next weekend.
Ashton's team also finished well and he's anxious to start playing again.  Spring soccer starts in March.

Ethan woke up and attended the game with us!  It was a treat to have him there.

Christmas Tree

 We got our tree up the weekend after Thanksgiving but I'm just now uploading the pictures.  The whole family got involved this year, which was so fun!

My ornament from 1st grade!

Ta da!

Being Thankful 2012

 We celebrated Thanksgiving in Apple Valley with a fabulous meal with the Hubbards.  Soccer in the backyard was on the agenda and Ashton did lots of coloring!  Friday we headed back with loads of leftovers and had our own family Thanksgiving meal.  We did our annual "Thanksgiving poster" with the boys adding their own items.  We have much to be thankful for!

Rainy Soccer Day

Cameron and Ashton played soccer in the rain today.  It rained on and off all day.  Unless there's lightening, the games aren't canceled.  We were all cold, wet and sad since both teams lost. 

Switchfoot Concert

 Ethan and Derrik attended a Switchfoot concert in Anaheim.  Sounds like they both had a blast! 

Basketball Date

Cameron and Derrik went to watch a Clippers vs. Lakers game a few weeks back.  It was a "dream night" for Cameron to see two California teams play each other.

Halloween Festival at SCE

Our school had their annual Halloween Festival and we had a blast!
