Eleanor and Henry had a few days off from school, so we tagged along with Uncle B and Aunt Breanne on a trip out to Santa Barbara. We had a great time – the kids especially enjoyed the swimming pool at the rental house! We also had a great time playing with our new friends…

Eleanor and Henry had a fun Halloween trick-or-treating again with our friends Charlie and Tyler. This year, Eleanor and Monkey were both mermaids, and Henry was a penguin. Each year it seems like the street gets smaller and smaller, but both kiddos were still content to just do that block and then head in. They…
