Holiday Party at Dillon's School

The first part of December Canyon Breeze Elementary had their annual Holiday Party!

First we made graham cracker creations!
Next came a chat with the Jolly Ol' Elf himself! (Taya wouldn't let me walk away to get out of the pic)
Then there was a train ride! Chugga chugga choo choo!
Fishing for prizes
Dillon participated in a race...he had to run to the box and dress in all the items.
Then he had to make a goal with the tennis ball and hockey stick.
Last they did the Cake Walk!
Hooray hostess cupcakes for all!

Beckham is 2 months old!

Well our little man is now 2 months old. Kinda crazy how quick the time goes!


He is such a sweet little guy!
Beckham had his 2 month check up on Monday.
Here are his stats:
11 lbs. 14 oz. (46th percentile)
24 inches long (92nd percentile)
Those cute little chubby cheeks of his make him look bigger than he really is.

He is just growing like crazy and we are enjoying every minute of him!
We love you little guy!

Kid at Hope Day!

Last week at Dillon's school they had Kids at Hope Day! The school has a program called Kids at Hope which basically is encouraging all the kids to establish goals and dreams and strive to reach them. All the parents stood on either side of the sidewalk creating a "tunnel of hope" for the kids to walk through!
Dillon proudly waving to his adoring fans! (Mom, Taya, and Beckham). There was an assembly in the new gym where they sang some songs and showed a little movie with some of the students talking about their goals.



We went to his classroom and saw some of his artwork. This is Dillon's guy he drew to look like what he wants to be when he grows up...a policeman!


More artwork...his is the orange and blue one...his favorite colors!


We stopped to play at the playground for a few mins. so Dillon could show us where he has recess. What a fun day! Dillon is doing well in school I am amazed at how quick he is learning! We sure love him!



"I am a kid at hope. I am talented and smart and capable of success. I have dreams for the future and climb to reach these goals and dreams every day. All kids are capable of success, NO EXCEPTIONS!!!"


That is the motto they recite it along with the Pledge of Allegiance.

Boo at the Zoo!

For some more Halloween fun we went to the Phoenix Zoo! It was a great time cuz it was Boo at the Zoo...which meant for some fun things to see and do!


The elephant came out and found some carrots that had been hidden.


The animals got to have a pumpkin "stomp and chomp". The bear was our favorite!


The Orangutan came right over to say hello!


Dillon's favorite...the Rhino!


And of course the Carousel ride!


We sure had fun! The kids also got to walk through a maze and get a prize at the end!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Halloween Festivities...

For some Halloween fun we went to Mother Nature's Farm and Pumpkin Patch. We went here last year and it was a lot of fun so we decided to go again!

We had Grandpa Jim and Grandma Susan here with us for a week to help with baby Beckham and also just to visit and have fun!

After the Pumpkin Patch we went back to our house where Grandma Susan had a little Halloween party planned for us! We decorated Skeleton cupcakes, made some fun crafts and wore halloween socks!


Pretty spooky!


We each made a Jack-o-Lantern face and the kids made puppets.


We had a great day! Thanks for all the fun!
