Thanksgiving


Isaac had a Thanksgiving Feast for preschool. He really enjoyed making his apple turkey and noodle necklace. The snow started falling Monday (Nov 22)

The snow really came down Tuesday (Nov 23). We got about 6 inches, the worst blizzard in 30 years they said. Cosette had her first snow day. ISU even closed down the snow was so bad (that NEVER happens). The day was spent sledding on the hills of the golf course.

Wednesday morning we left for Arizona. Thankfully the roads were clear all the way down.
Thanksgiving Day we met Mom, Dad, Alan, and Nicole at Montezuma's Castle in Arizona. We were able to view these cliff dwellings of the Sinagua people. The ruins are about 700 years old. It was an awesome experience.
As is done in the Frost Family, Thanksgiving dinner is at a park on Friday. Ethan refused to take off his coat even though it was 60 degrees outside.
Here's everyone together. It doesn't happen very often since the family is split between Idaho and California now.

As We Speak

This is what my family is doing right now, as I type. We've gotten about 3 inches of snow since 8am this morning (it's now 3pm).
Just thought I'd post this picture too...poor bunny on a swing...

Autumn Leaves




I know that we've already had our first snowfall of the year and there's more to come, but I couldn't pass up the fun the boys had in the maple leaves! This is why we love being a kid.

Birthday Bash


(double click on the picture to get the whole thing)

Ethan is 3!! Hard to believe. Cosette gave Ethan a card (the pink paper) and bed-making coupons for a gift. Isaac gave Ethan a couple of his Hot Wheels cars. It was sweet to see the kids treat Ethan so well.

When Cosette turned 3, we decided to start a tradition - a balloon boquet with as many balloons as you are old. Here's Ethan's collection.

Birthday breakfast was a cupcake (zucchini bread muffin covered in frosting). Here's Ethan blowing out the candles.

Aunt Nic sent a penguin pillow pet for Ethan. When he opened the box, he exclaims, "A pillow pet! A penguino!" That is not a typo, he called it a penguin in Spanish. I guess Go, Diego. Go! I having an effect on his language development!
