Hey everyone!!

Can't believe its already been so long since I posted...lots of fun adventures since then....First of all LOTS of GIANT'S games---Rowan still randomly says to us, "Daddy, mommy, the Giants won the World Series". Both boys learned how to cheer, " Go Giants!", and watching the games was a nightly occurrence for us for a couple of weeks. It was fun, and Mike is still so ecstatic that his childhood team has finally done what he always knew they could do!! Then came Halloween, lots of trips to pumpkin patches, lots of walks to look at the skeletons on our street, and finally getting out costumes on. I started asking Rowan if he wanted to put his dragon costume on about a month before Halloween, but only succeeded the Friday before Halloween! But man once he got that thing on, he didn't want to take it off!! It was adorable to see Reid look at Rowan like he didn't recognize him...then when Reid got his on, they both just ran around the house chasing each other...then there was a mirror session, just checking themselves out! Finally we actually went trick or treating, and Rowan and his two best friends were pros...went up and rang the door bells, said "trick or treat and Happy Halloween", and then said "thank you", they even waited until we got home before they ate any candy!

Since then its been ya know school, weekend trips to the zoo, Fairyland, and this weekend also to the Academy of Sciences, and the Chabot Space Center, since I had a few extra days off (one was a furlough day since our state doesn't have enough money to pay teachers for the full school year !!?!!?). So much fun! Can't wait for Thanksgiving and for Christmas time, it will be great to see family and catch up with so many people that we never get to see enough!

Love to you all and take care! Angie Mike and the boys!
are we ready to go yet?
one dragon, one dinosaur, and one princess...
lots of Giants fans...
Rowan was excited to see all of the fish that he's been learning about in his books at the aquarium.
Reid just kept saying, "I see fishy, I see Nemo!"
We also loved all the dinosaurs!


We were also very lucky that Rowan and Reid's cousins, Jacob and Aidan, and uncle Matt, aunt Staci and grandma joined us at the Academy. Rowan and Reid love their cousins, and whenever they all get together, there's just A LOT of running around laughing and falling over!
Aidan and Rowan are only a few weeks apart in age, so cute to see them together :)

Take care and Happy Thanksgiving!
