Family Pictures

Andrew

We are so excited to have some new family pictures. They turned out far better than I imagined.

Newport Beach / Whale Watching

We had a wonderful time staying at the Newport Villas at Newport Beach with Cindy and Jackson in January. The boys loved playing ping pong, pool and life-sized chess.

It was such a fun and beautiful resort.

We went whale watching and even though we didn't see any whales, we did see plenty of dolphins, seals and sea birds and had a great time.

We're Back!

Yes, we realize it's been a while since we've updated. A lot happened in December. Keaton and Andrew turned 11, Grandpa Jensen came for Christmas and the boys went to AZ to visit their friend Nate.

Happy Birthday boys!

We spent the boys' Birthday at Disneyland. They had fun shopping, eating ice cream, riding the rides and watching the holiday parade. The Haunted Mansion was their favorite ride - it was decorated and decked out for Christmas.

The boys celebrated their 11th birthday with a few friends from the ward. Cosmic bowling was a blast.

They loved spending time in Arizona with the Mariners.

Matt loves to wear everybody's shoes (and his brothers' hats & helmets) around the house.

Hanging out with Keaton. Matt loves his big brothers (he can say Andrew really well and calls them both Andrew).

Thanksgiving Weekend

My parents came for Thanksgiving this year. It was so nice to see them. We drove by the homes they grew up in down in Chula Vista, ate at El Juan and, of course, went to the beach. This was our first time visiting Coronado Beach. It was great but a little chilly in November.

Some great shots of the kids and the beach.

Veteran's Day on the USS Midway

We took the family to San Diego to tour the USS Midway. It's an aircraft carrier that was commisioned in 1945. It was used in the 1st Gulf War and now serves as a floating museum.

It was so cool!

The boys had a great time exploring. We really enjoyed spending our Veteran's Day on the USS Midway.

Happy Halloween!

This picture was taken at the ward Trunk or Treat. We had a great time seeing all of the creative costumes. We're really into recycling this year. Matt is wearing a costume that Andrew wore at his age and the boys are on their second or third year of being baseball players.

Arrow of Light Ceremony

The boys had their Arrow of Light Ceremony on October 2nd. The Arrow of Light is the highest award in Cub Scouts that celebrates the transition from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts. It was a really nice program and a great accomplishment.
