Thanks for so much

There is so much to be thankful for in our home! Here, Liam, Casey, and Gavin show how they love to dance on the table. Their cousin Sophie looks on.

Little Dippers

As Thanksgiving approaches, Gavin, Liam, and Casey are gradually expanding their palates to prepare for the Big Meal. Here, they build up their culinary experience by practicing with such exotic offerings as bread dipped in olive oil, cheese, and salt and pepper.


Casey lets Grandma Fran feel the back of his head.
Uncle Paco tries to scare his nieces Sophie and Alahna, but they are not falling for it.

Downward Dogs

These days it seems that Chrissy and Paco rarely have time to practice yoga. Yet, somehow Gavin, Liam, and Casey picked up some simple moves that Mama and Daddy taught them. Here everyone is practicing downward dog. Liam and Gavin like to challenge themselves by getting a leg up. Whew!

Look at me! Look at me! Leg in the air likes it good to be...
Did I mention that Gavin really loves to practice downward dog?
Here Liam shows his yogic abilities.
