Santa Baby Girl

Here is Kendyll in her holiday garb. She (along with all of us Mitchells) are excited for Christmas. We have our lights up, house decorated and will be getting our tree after church on Sunday. Both Kendyll and Kasey will be riding on our church's float in the Camarillo Christmas parade on Saturday. They are also performing in the children's chior program on Sunday. We are in for a busy weekend.

We've Been Elfed!

Our Soccer Season

Here are Kendyll and Kasey in their soccer uniforms. Kendyll played on the Pretty Penguins and Kasey on the Lazers. They both had a great season. Kasey's team made it to the playoffs and placed 4th place. Kendyll's team wasn't competitive so places weren't kept track of.

Happy Halloween

The kids had a great time trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. Kasey dressed as a football player, Kendyll was a black cat and Kolby a firefighter. We had lots of trick-or-treaters at our home. We all enjoy giving out candy and seeing the costumes.

Pumpkin Carving Party

This is our group from the Annual Pumpkin Party. It has been going strong for over 13 years.

I think Kolby is trying to "be the pumpkin"

Kendyll and Mommy were working hard on carving their pumpkins.

Kolby dressed as a Blue Power Ranger and Kendyll a black cat.

Peak A "BOO"

Kolby and Kendyll are great helpers when it comes to HALLOWEEN decorating!

A visit with Great-Grandpa

Great-Grandpa (91 years old!) came for a visit. He and his wife, Sylvia watched the kids as Ken and I went on a dinner date. It sure was nice having a free babysitter! The kids really enjoyed having him around. He sang "Rip Van Winkle" as the kids danced. I'm not sure who enjoyed it more. The next morning he came to watch Kasey play soccer. It was nice to have them for a visit.

The Last Suck!

Kolby gave up his suckies! He gathered them up and put them into a bag and we drove to PV Hospital. He asked for "one more suck" in the car before we went into the hospital. We rode the elevator up to the labor and delivery floor and gave the suckies to the new babies. The nurse was very encouraging and thanked Kolby for helping all of the new babies. He went to Target the next morning and picked out a puppy that barks and wags his tail as a prize for giving up the habit. He named it Skeleton. He has done wonderfully. He still askes every night to get his suckies back, but understands that the new babies really need them.
