Darian in Santa Monica

Darian got to hold some cool birds at the Santa Monica pier.



The bird is playing dead.

Christmas 2012

We went to the Riverwoods to see Santa and I said, lets find the most beautiful lights to take a picture by. And Darian said, but you are the most beautiful thing here. He's such a sweetheart. A few weeks ago when it was snowing and I picked him up and there was snow outside of his school, I complained that I didn't have my boots on and he said out of no where, "mom, I wish I could carry you."








Telling Santa what they wanted. Darian wanted a motorcycle.

Halloween

We carved pumpkins with Geidy and Daniel and Izzy






Ate caramel apples













And lit them up






Went to a trunk-or-treat










Posed as super Heros






Went trick or treating



For four hours!




Especially at "hotels" (apartment buildings) which mom has taught us are very efficient places to knock




And then the Baradaran sorting began and a little trading.

Our (maybe) last trip to Goshen

Apple picking in Warwick




























The kids found a dead frog in the pool and made this.




Well miss you Madar and baba!
