Reid and Stefani Adopt

 Things have been a little different this Thanksgiving since moving to Florida.   Reid's two brothers and their families, along with Reid's parents and grandmother, came to visit us for an entire week during Thanksgiving.  Instead of the usual activities of staying inside or getting bundled up to play in the snow, we went out to the beach, to the Kennedy Space Center, climbed trees, had a birthday party for Esther, and enjoyed the warm rain.  And the turkey was delicious this year. Isaac's first tree climb!  I was so proud of my boy.  This is a tree in our back yard. Stefani and Esther and astronaut Snoopy at the Kennedy space center.   The Moon Rocket.   Balloon games at Esther and Collin's birthday Celebration. Isaac practicing walking with the balloon between his legs. Ready, Set, RACE! Esther's fruit loop necklace that lasted about 2 minutes or less.  Esther enjoying one of her presents from Mom. ...

Isaac was a Giraffe.  He rode his bike with me to go trick or treating this year, and I pushed Esther in the stroller.  Esther was a Jack-o-Lantern.  She was so cute, but some people thought she was a boy. Notice that both costumes are more for cold weather.  We bought them last year in Michigan.  They were too cute not to use, but they were HOT!
