Trip to Grover Beach

In the beginning of November we decided to take Marie up to the Central Coast to visit Grandpa Frosty and Grandma Coco.  We took Marie to the local beach, downtown, and we happened to hit the Monarch butterflies as they migrate.  Marie took some time to photograph the butterflies in the eucalyptus trees and met up with us a little later at the beach.  It was a fun day! 

Halloween

Ok sooo as usual I'm a little behind on blogging.  I left off with a fun visit with family in October and will finish up our October 2013 with Halloween.  This year was so fun with decorating, picking out our costumes and of course playing with our food.  This was Marie's first American Halloween and I think she really enjoyed seeing some of our traditions. She chose to dress up as Taylor Swift and the boys were Buzz Lightyear and Gabriel chose Scooby Doo.  I was holding out for Buzz and Woody, but Gabe (being Mr. Independent) was having none of it.  He wanted to be scooby so he was gonna be scooby.  Super cute!
