We visit the Dinosaur Museum for Kaleb's Birthday

 

Santa Cruz with Becky and Lincoln

I love that our family is here with us. And I love that that family is Becky and Lincoln (and Quinn too).

I love that Becky calls as asks "Want go somewhere today?" and that we decided to drive almost two hours to Santa Cruz just to hang out and be there. 

Lincoln's not walking yet, but he stands like a champ.

This creepy "Sal" was posted outside the arcade and giving me the heebie jeebies.

There was this super cool mural inside right above their indoor/multi level miniature golf course.

We decided to hang out on the beach for a while and the weather was awesome. Getting my stroller down the stairs and around on the sand was a total B.
But anyway, I brought Kaleb's plastic "CARS" kite and tried to fly it for while. I kept crashing it to the ground.
Then Becky's like "oh I've never flown a kite before." so I handed t over to her and all of a sudden shes Top Gun / Master of the sky.

Lincoln helped too

Becky took these and I'm so happy!

Then Kaleb decided to eat some sand (Lincoln did too, but I have no proof)

So we had to get some of the most delicious ice cream ever.

It was a very good day

Pumpkin Patch

We decided to take a little trip to the pumpkin patch the night before Halloween for a impromptu fall photo shoot.

If you don't want to see lots and lots of ridiculously cute images of Kaleb, you should stop now. 

Kaleb looking at the goats.

Goats ignoring Kaleb.

...Thats ok, because the pumpkins are nicer anyway.

then he found a little "Kaleb sized" chair

and a few Kaleb's size pumpkins.

(oh my goodness this is his daddy!)

Daddy and Baby

Family! this is our first try...

Mommy and Baby

Oh my handsomes! 

More family!
I like these better. 

and the last couple with mommy

We decided not to get or carve a pumpkin this year, but we did have lots of fun at the patch and I'm so glad we had this little family outing!
