Highlight Reel: Fall 2013


Saying goodbye to summer with a little staycation fun.


Thankful for friends that let us crash their pads when they are out of town.


First day of school 2013: Montecito Union




Ben orders and eats his first double-double.


Karate Ninja Meditation


 Because we don't want to forget these little moments.





Visiting the cemetery for Erik's birthday.


Ben turns SEVEN.



And his alter ego "Striker."



Bonfire at the beach — in October.




Halloween with Luke Skywalker and an Ewok. 
Ben, "I knew Clara would be a hit."
She was. I mean, c'mon!





Morning after Halloween hangover, kid style.


The kids asked to have a Dios de los Muertos celebration where we remembered those we have lost as a family. It was beautiful.


We have lots and lots to be thankful for...

What IS it about these kids and double cheeseburgers (or when their father is flying solo, double BACON cheeseburgers)??? Ivy is definitely a carnivore. Isa? Not so much. She takes after her mother's love of legumes and dairy. :) Glad to catch up with you, and glad to hear that life is treating you well at in the California edition of Casa Watson. hugs,
