Walnut Creek – Day 2 (Part 1)

I hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving!


Below – photos shared from Grandma JoJo, Maya and Sparty’s Ohio Grandma

Sparty’s deciding what he wants Santa to bring while Maya enjoys her chocolate milk and Passi.

Maya has craft time with her cousins.

Soccer!


Meanwhile, back in Walnut Creek

We had a lot of fun yesterday watching all three football games, going to the park, enjoying the grandkids, Robb & Akuch and a houseful of their friends which included a total of nine adults, four two year olds and sweet baby Kando, AND a fantastic Thanksgiving spread. Robb spent all day in the kitchen cooking! I took lots of photos, so for today I am only sharing the first half of the day.

At Larkey Park before the big meal.

It was cold …

Somehow the trees got the hint that winter’s coming …
  


Back at the house, Kando has some tummy time.

This is what happens when you drink your yogurt.

Here’s a selfie video, a test to see how long I could make my arm. A very active Kando…


Now that Thanksgiving’s over, here’s a little preview of the up and coming season, one of my favorites!

Today we’re taking a ferry to Angel Island. According to Wikipedia …

Angel Island is an island in San Francisco Bay offering expansive 360° views of the San Francisco skyline, the Marin County Headlands and Mount Tamalpais. The entire island is included within Angel Island State Park and is administered by California State Parks. The island, a California Historical Landmark,[1] has been used for a variety of purposes, including military forts, a US Public Health Service Quarantine Station, and a US Bureau of Immigration inspection and detention facility. The Angel Island Immigration Station on the northeast corner of the island, where officials detained, inspected, and examined approximately one million immigrants, has been designated a National Historic Landmark.”

It should be a fun day!

Walnut Creek – Day 1

Happy Thanksgiving everybody (assuming anyone ever reads my blog)… 🙂


Love at first sight …

Airport reunion selfies with the boys.

  
  


Later at the house Alo has a snack wearing his antlers.

While Kando enjoys a little down time.


At lunch, Alo keeps busy coloring.

While Kando sleeps.

Finally the food arrives!
  

While Kando sleeps …


Back at the house Alo and Great Grandma read the pop-up dinosaur book.


At the end of the day …

This morning when I showed this photo to Alo, he said “Alo’s pooping reading the train book.”


We’re now kicking back watching the Eagles v. Lions game and planning on making it a day of staying warm, food, staying warm, football, staying warm, and enjoying the kids. Top priority is staying warm!
