The Walkers

 
 This Year we went to California for Thanksgiving. Mikes Grandma lives in Monterey (Between Pacifica and Half Moon Bay) and his brother just got his own apartment in the same area as his gram. They both literally live just above this beach. Always in view and only a 2 min walk if that! It is beyond beautiful!

The boys clearly LOVE it!

Mike spent a good percentage of his time running after Keaton and bringing him back away from the water!

And as you can see Keaton spent a HUGE portion of his time running after the waves he couldn't get enough!

Little keat just trekking along!

On Monday Kaleb and Mike got to go to work with Uncle Matt. Kaleb had a BLAST he got to help drive  Matts truck and Unimog (who knows if i spelled that right?)

On thanksgiving day we took a drive and I got to snap a couple pictures of the boys!

Keaton was near impossible to take photos of!

Mike and I walked down to the beach one night after we put the boys to bed at Matts... I tried to get a picture but it was So foggy down by the water. I think being at the ocean at night has to be one of my new favorite places as oasis one might call it! It was unbelievably beautiful and peaceful having the water and waves glow from the moonlight, watching the tide and listening to the waves!

Thanksgiving morning Mike and I took the boys out for a hike! We had the ocean in view the whole time it was beautiful!

             

This was just a pretty pic I took driving through Tahoe on our way home!

We Started off the morning with some Just Dance!

This Year Kaleb wanted to be 5 different things at Least! But finally decided on spider man!

We went by Grandpa walkers work for a trunk or treat. They had games, treats and some of the cars were decorated from the movie "Cars"

Example: Kaleb chasing dad and Keaton chasing Kaleb! Love my boys!

We ended our Halloween night with some chinese take out- putting kids to bed and watching some movies!

       I LOVE holidays and couldn't be more excited that the season is here! The weekend before halloween Mike and I got to go on a double date to a masquerade ball at the Atrium in rexburg! We went with our good GREAT friends Dana and Brent! It was SO much fun! I didn't really have any "fancy fancy" dresses and didn't want to spend a hefty chunk of money for one night so Dana came up with the Idea to make some big poofy skirts out of ( ). Well 80 yards of ( ) later we had skirts!
       Boy oh Boy were mike and I rusty on our dancing hahaha! Oh geeze Im sure we made a spectacle of ourselves for the first little bit because it had been SOOO long since we have been out dancing (aside from Just Dance at the home when I force him to play with me) and we used to all the time especially me! After we brushed the dust off a little we started getting back into the sync of it and having a blast. Im lucky to have a husband that can be confident let loose and have a good time in situations like that.

There is a funny story behind this picture of Keaton! So the weekend of the masquerade ball my entire family was down in Utah at lagoon fright nights so mike and I had to find a babysitter. This is the VERY first time we have ever actually hired a babysitter who isn't family or a very VERY close friend! I found a sweet girl from our ward that was able to watch the kids. I had them in bed and asleep before we actually even left (score for this babysitter). Anyways a couple hours after we had been gone keaton woke up and the babysitter said she went in to comfort him but he was so stunned by not seeing mommy and daddy that he stopped crying and just stared. She tried to pick him up but he would  not let her take him out of his crib. Mike and I headed home and when we went in to check on Keaton he was still just sitting there staring, not moving. His look in the above picture explains it all. I took him out and he had a good death grip on me for the next 30-45 min! poor kids scared for life!
