The Naked Puppy!?

So the kids were playing dress up.Grace was a Bride Asa was a pirate and Zeke was wearing a "Goofy" hat and on all 4's barking. Zeke was in his PJ's and the Goofy hat. Then within the time it took me to say "Hey Barb, have you seen the puppy in the living room?" She took 2 steps and then said "Oh my! You mean the naked puppy?!" So within the 3.5 seconds Zeke had managed to get naked laugh and streak through the house! He will love these pictures when he gets older...

Thanksgiving, a new tradition...

Happy Thanksgiving! We went up to Duluth for the holiday and we had our first Santodonato/Howard holiday. Barb made a feast for 15! It was so much fun to have both families together. Although we sure did miss Uncle Jed and Auntie Molly. We had a great time talking over skype, it was almost like they were with us. We love you Uncle Jed and Auntie Molly. Looking forward to the days when you (both!) are stateside!

I adore this photo!

Rock Stars and Dancing...

Asa has always thought that the drummers were the coolest.
Zeke was right on rhythm. (hat one)
Such a beautiful dancer...
Zeke was jamming (hat 2).
We were working on packing to head up to Duluth. The kids had some energy to burn so Barn put on U2 loud enough to rock the panes of glass in the windows. This was the result. We joined in too but bummer there were no pictures of that! :)

Brett has such great style...

Hey Brett and Jess. Came across this photo while cleaning up our iphoto stuffs. We miss you guys!

Again with the genetics........

We found Asa's Thanksgiving outfit from a few years back. (Yes Asa is the one on the top)

Here you go Mom!

Asa and his new glasses! These look pretty similar to his old ones except these are metal and have spider man webs on the side. He feels pretty sassy in 'em.

Cute pictures

Asa now knows how to tie shoes!
totally zonked.

Halloween

Mermaid B hung out with us at MOA.
Zeke being Zeke. You can't quite tell but Zeke is wearing his curious George slippers. He felt all pilots wore slippers. Is that right uncle Jed?
On our way!

We went to the Mall of America for a Halloween bash. We had lots of fun and the kids got lots of treats both candy and non candy.
