Driving Back to Bakersfield

Moving day at the new house! Chairs were not off the truck yet...

About a week or so after moving in...

We went to the fair! I believe it was the California State fair, we enjoyed ourselves there... We love fair food!

Here are a few more pictures from Nick's Baptism...

We tried a new place to eat while Sam and Sulma were visiting. It's called Squeeze Inn and they put a lot of cheese on the burgers!

Yum!

It was so awesome that our friends the Jandas came out to visit for a whole week! We played around town and went to Lake Tahoe for a few days! I love Summer!

Nicholas got glasses this summer and I think he looks pretty cute!

Hannah wants to be a ninja so she colored her face blue. I am not sure why that made her look like a ninja but she thinks it did!

Nicholas LOVES books!

First day of school!

The girls after their bath one night... They wanted a towel on their head like I wear one after my showers.

Nicholas started Cub Scouts in the Fall.

Happy Kids

First day of Gymnastics and Urban Gym

Back in Bakersfield visiting family and friends.

Halloween

We made a day trip out to San Francisco and met up with our friends the Johnsons. There we checked out the new City Target and went to Fisherman's wharf. After we went to the Johnson's home for dinner and smores!

Election day

We now live in a city were they sell snow toys and sleds in Target! YEAH!

Hannah decided that she wanted to have moles like her mom, so she got out the black sharpie and went to town... That girl is a handful!

I love living near the Sacramento Lds Temple! It is beautiful!

Nick and Meghan's school has a cat, and Hannah chased it down one day and played with it while waiting to pick up the big kids.

Hannah wanted glasses so she had Steve pop out the lenses in some sunglasses. I think she looks pretty cute!

Thanksgiving! We had Steve's brother and his wife and daughter up for Thanksgiving, It was so nice having them here, we really enjoy their company!

The kids went to the dentist, it was like going to Disneyland...

I've been on a bread kick, and made bread bowls with chicken and wild rice chowder. It was amazing!

Hannah and her friend Devin.

Deer! We have deer living around us! It is AWESOME!

We took the kids bowling and to was a lot of fun!

We love Cattlemen's Steak house!

Hannah loves playing with her baby dolls

There was a really pretty sun set. I took a picture with my phone so it did not turn out that well, but it was pretty!

More Gymnastic pictures

Here are some pictures that I got off of Steve's Phone:

In June Nicholas took some friends to the movies and McDonald for his birthday! He had a really good time, seeing these pictures makes me a little sad... He had the great friends in Bakersfield! He is making a lot here too but in these pictures you can see how happy his was to be with them!
