Thanksgiving in Baldy

Thanksgiving in Mount Baldy.  It's our new tradition, and such a great one.  So lovely to get away from the daily grind for a bit.

 

We were a small group this year, but it was tasty and fabulous!

 

 

We ate so much that we needed a nighttime walk.  Nighttime walks mean headlamps, which make everything WAY more fun.

 

 

It was a gorgeous weekend.  We got a few daytime walks in too!

 

Daniel is lifting mini boulders on his walk down the hill, so he can get a full body experience.  Show off!

 

I was the most out of shape person on the trip, and last in line on the walk up the hill - but I made it (more than once, thank you very much!)

 

Tobin the Ham

I think Tobin will take after his dad.  Not shy.  Ready to perform anytime there is an audience.  Here's proof...

 

Here is Tobin singing Bon Jovi.  Needless to say, he's not shy!

 

Tobin's version of Gangnam Style.  One of his favorites.  He'll show anyone willing to watch.  Some versions include break dancing, but here is a short snippet of what we see often.

 

HALLOWEEN 2012!

Halloween was fun this year because Tobin was actually into it, and wanted to dress up and have some fun!

 

Here are Tobin and Jolie's jack-o-lanterns.  We are not a spooky family - light and happy!

 

A trip to the pumpkin patch - much cheaper than an amusement park and just as fun!

 

I'm sure no one is surprised that Tobin was a Monster Truck Driver for Halloween.  His outfit was adorable (and comfortable).  Everywhere we went people made comments about how great his outfit was. 

 

Tobin was so brave going down the huge slide at the Pumpkin Patch.  He had so much fun the first time, that he wanted to go again.  On the 2nd time around, he got to the top and freaked out - started crying and wouldn't slide down. Ah well. 

 

This is Tobin and his friend Justice (Captain America) at the Little Sunshine House Halloween party.  There were games, a parade, stories, and yummy snacks.  Fun times to be had by all!
