Merry Christmas!

Caleb is playing a new nintendo game, wearing his new TMNT shirt, and some Heely's he got for Christmas. Joshua is sporting some Knight gear that he got, he loves it.
Joey's favorite gift was a ring pop and a "tic-tac" rattle that he stole from Caleb.

The Rillos boys looking snazzy in their Christmas outfits from Grammy!

Our photo shoot with friend and brilliant photographer Kat Willcox

Our friend Kat Willcox spent an afternoon taking some very fun and great photos with Matt and me while we were in California. She is, as you can see, a brilliant photographer. She has been booked to shoot for 10 weddings this summer and one of them is in Colorado. So, we hope to get to spend time with her and her family while they are here. Her husband Travis was in Matt's squadron at the Air Force Academy and they are now stationed in LA. You can check out more of her work at http://www.katwillcoxphotography.blogspot.com/











A wonderful reunion with friends!

Brooke, Carrie, and Stacy get ready for Shelly's surprise waffle bfast. She turned 30 on Dec 16th as well. She and Matt are Bday twins as Matt calls it. Robyn and her Brians drove all the way up from San Diego (4 hour drive in traffic) just to see us! We feel honored. We shared a wonderful dinner together and witnessed the best behaved 2 year old boy in the world. I'm not sure how Robyn got blessed with a sweet child. Just kidding girl, I love you.
All the ladies at Shelly's bday bfast. Anna Tomlinson and her hubby Chris put us up at their place for the entire visit. Bless them for putting up with us. We enjoyed our time with them immensely.
Matt and Chris at Yogurberry. Matt's head looks like it was cut and pasted, I think that's because of the funky pink walls and ceiling.

Matt's 30th Birthday Weekend in LA

James and Carrie gave Matt an Air Hog helicopter for his bday. He's 30 and he's still getting toys! Let's just say he LOVES it, as do our boys. Nice Anderson sandwich. The Fogals drove up to help celebrate Matt's 30th bday. We love them dearly and it was so nice of them to drive up.
Matt and Matt together again!
P-diddy and Gina brought Jack Patrick down for the weekend as well. It was such a great reunion with all of our friends.
James, Carrie, Matt and I pose for a picture at Buca Di Beppo. I bet you could have guessed that with all of the wall art.

Patty, Nikki and I pose for a picture at The Melting Pot. I was at least 2 lbs heavier after this picture.

Falcon Football

We hauled all the boys down to watch Air Force beat Army!!! GO FALCONS!

Joshua was the most impressed with the "costume bird" as he called it. He really didn't care too much about the game.
It was alumni weekend so Matt got to take the big boys down on the field at half time. Maybe they will be down there playing some day. Who knows...

Time at my parents' cabin

Caleb waited patiently for a LOOOONNNNGGG time with birdseed in his hand...and low and behold a bird landed in his hand. So fun...a couple more birds decided they wanted to come eat from his hand too. Daddy and Joey swing on the tree swing.
Joey decided if the birds were eating it, it must taste good. He liked it.
Joshua was jealous of Joey always getting a ride, so he wanted one too. He looks a little big for it don't ya think.

A family that camo's together, stays together!

Camo Couple : ) Notice Matt's barfing pumpkin on the right. Nice. Camo family...we'll be dressed differently for the Air Force vs Army game on Saturday.
Matt and Joshie looking very cute in their camo.
Joey is not happy with me because I took his sucker away for the picture. Can you spot his fang?

So many costumes, so little time : )

Joshua and Caleb are little Air Force football players and Joey is the elephant that all three boys have now worn. Caleb had a costume parade at school so the little ones and I tagged along. The AF costumes were a hit with boys and girls alike. Check out how those girls are looking at Caleb. I mean, he is pretty darn cute.
Daddy and Joshie drive the four-wheeler humvee on Halloween.
We had about 7 army boys and two dads for Halloween between our house and a few neighbors. So fun!
