Art Night

Talia had her first art night at Franklin. Grandma was in Denver but grandpa made show. Talia painted the pears in the first picture--her first masterpiece. The artist who inspired the works was Gauguin. 

Basketball Season

Aaron and Lory went to see the Heat play the Wizards. While the Heat did not make a great showing,  the night was salvaged by nachos, popcorn,  a cheeseburger and ice cream--as well as a great father-son bonding time. 

Equally exciting was Aaron's first day of basketball league. Not only did Aaron get the Chris Bosh jersey but he also hit the elbow jumper with time expiring just like Bosh. 

Gobble, gobble!

We hosted the entire Brin-Race-Terborgh-Abrams-Leanderson clan at our house for Thanksgiving this year.  Calm, it was not, but we loved having everyone together to celebrate the holiday.  The turkey was yummy (phew!) but the company was even better.  We also kept Liz, David and Lucas for a few bonus days of fun.  So much to be thankful for!

Gorgeous fall day

Boo!

We had a motley crew at our house this Halloween -- Alice in Wonderland, Birdman, two peacocks and a cameo appearance by Magnum PI.  Aaron had fun at his school party and participating in his first Murch Halloween parade.
