Thanksgiving day

Fuimos a Mesa de nuevo para el dia de accion de gracias a comer pavo, pure de papa, pay y mucho mas. Nos divertimos mucho, empezando con el viaje porque no falto que una hora antes de salir de Pinetop, empezo a nevar y el camino resulto muy resbaloso. Solo tuvimos un espanto cuando un carro se deslizo enfrente de nosotros y apenas pudimos parar antes de pegarlo. Despues de ese momento, Evan papa manejo con mucha mas precaucion. Bueno aqui esta un video de la nieve al comenzar el viaje.

Pinetop's First Snow Fall 2008

After visiting with the Home Teachers tonight we all left the house to say goodbye and the ground was all white. It was a sight for two people from hot places. We (I) were so excited we had to get our winter clothes on and play for a while even though it was dark. Evancito didn't want to get dressed and go outside but when it was time to go in had to force him in. He really loved picking up the snow and throwing it (Dad taught him of course). We're hoping it snows so much that a bridge is created to get us to Veteran's day without having to cross school grounds.

Halloween

Ok, now for the most recent happening, Halloween. Evan was Batman and Jacob a Dinosaur. We made a Jack-o-lantern for family night at the beginning of the week and then went to the church parking lot where the two wards there organized a "Trunk or Treat" for kids to go around the church picking up their goodies. We only had to be there for a half hour but got lots of candy for these kids.

Aqui hay fotos del Halloween. Esperamos que les gusten. Evan es Batman y Jacobito un dinosaurio. Fuimos a recoger dulces de muchas familias en la iglesia. Asi era mas rapido que ir de casa en casa pidiendo. Fue divertido y a los ninos les encanto.

Visita a Mesa

Fuimos a Mesa por un fin de semana para visitar a los familiares alli. Tomamos algunos fotos y celebraron otra vez a Jacobito. Aqui hay algunas fotos de ese fin.

Jacob is now one year old

Jacobito now is one year old. His birthday was September 28th. Yes, we know it's a little late. Now we are "borrowing" the internet so, we'll take advantage of this time. He got a few toys and here are some pictures and videos.

Visit to Woodland Lake

After a first three days of teaching Spanish at the high school, we went to Woodland Lake on Saturday to enjoy the nice surroundings in Pinetop-Lakeside, where we now live. We didn't know where to go when we left the house, but didn't have to look too long for Woodland Lake road which lead us right to the lake. After leaving, we realized the lake is only a half-mile from our house! Here are a few pictures and videos of our day there.

Jacob's standing now

Jacob is getting bigger everyday and now is standing up with the help of a couch. He only stands without moving his feet. But it was so cute we had to take a short video of it. Jacob esta creciendo todos los dias y ahora se puede parar con el apoyo de un mueble. No mueve sus pies todavia cuando esta parado. Pero era muy lindo y tuvimos que hacer un video pequeno. Saludos a todos.
