California Visit to the L.A. Zoo

We were in California this past week. Jake had his boards part 4 to take, so we made a family trip out of it. Although we didn't see much of Jake during the week me and the kids spent time with cousins and just hanging out. One of the highlights of our trip was the L.A. zoo. Owen's first time to the zoo, and Jaden's first time to the L.A zoo. We had a good time.

Happy Birthday Owen

Owen turns 2 today. He was born at 10:05 am at Mt. San Antonio Hospital in Upland California. He weighed 8 pd. 9 oz. and he arrived 2 days early (my due date was November 5). He calls his red blanket that he got from Grammy a "boppie", sleeps with his boppie and his little stuffed animal Mickey Mouse which he calls "mo mo". Calls Jaden, "brother", loves to sing Itsy Bitsy Spider, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Happy B-Day, Patty Cake, knows the color yellow, loves Elmo, and knows which hand is his left and which hand is right. And he still LOVES vacuums. His middle name is his great grandma DeVroom's maiden name, and his first name we got from the actor Owen Wilson. We love you Owen Happy B-Day.

Trick-Or-Treat

We had fun this Halloween. Jaden had a fun parade at school and we went to my Brother Corey's house to trick-or-treat with them. The weather was nice here in Utah considering in years past it has been freezing. Jaden decided that he wanted to be Indiana Jones and Owen was a spider. Jaden even wore my great-grandfater's going-to-church-meeting-cap. It looked pretty good for being around 80-years old.
