Turkey Trot

Matthew and Kristen made the long drive down the lovely scenic I-5 for Thanksgiving. They left on Saturday early in the morning, much to the displeasure of Kristen. After a brief stop at the Best Buy to get something for the iPod (yet another toy Kristen thinks Matthew doesn't need), the ride to LA began.

With light traffic for most of the way, the trip was lovely except for the dreaded 405 strectch aka the worst freeway in America. The trip was highlighted by a delightful turkey day meal complete with pumpkin pie dessert afterwards. The dynamic duo got to spend some quality time with Ms. Molly and other various members of the family.

Another highlight was a little get together last night reuniting the fats.

That is all for now, more later...

Halloween --- Mario Time



Hello to everyone. Last night we went to a Halloween party at our friends' (Emily and Jason) house, and we dressed up as Mario and Luigi. Matthew wanted to be Mario, but as usual he did what Kristen wanted and dressed up as Luigi (he insists that he looks great in green or red, so it worked out okay). After an exciting drive over there, we arrived and had a good time hanging out.

Today we are going to watch the Cal vs. Oregon game despite the inclement weather. Hopefully the bears can eat the ducks and get back on track.
