So Much Fun

Lately we have been making messes...

(Spilled oatmeal)

Making snowflakes...


Making and consuming Christmas cookies...

(It's especially awesome that he's still wearing his Halloween shirt during this season)
 
And visiting special places...
 
The Oakland Temple in the misty rain (notice how Rose provoked Simon in some way)

A couple days ago the kids and I took the BART with our friends so we could meet our daddies in San Francisco.  They got a kick out of the train ride.  
 
 
 
First we crashed Jeff's building party.  Rose got a special monkey-on-a-palm-tree balloon made for her (which gradually popped piece-by-piece throughout the evening).



We saw Santa and Rose gave him a big (albeit hesitant) hug as soon as she got close to him!


Dashing through the snow...


Then we met up with Sevak and saw some of the decorations at the Grand Hyatt.  Simon liked the animals.


We were going to eat at the Cheesecake Factory, but it was an hour wait, so we went to Wolfgang Puck Express instead.  You can't tell from this picture, but Simon's favorite part was the ice cream cone at the end.  It was his first cone all to himself, and he was thrilled.


It was a great evening, even if we did have to brave the rain!  We can't get enough of our friends, either--today we joined them at Super Frank's after a workout at the gym!  Here's the only photo I snapped:


So many fun events these past few weeks!  And there are certainly more to come!
