We measured around 9 inches total!

Fun in the snow with Daddy! Let it snow!!!

While they were here we got a little bit of snow. Ezekiel had lots of fun with Uncle Mike and Aunt Jenny since he hadn't seen them since April.

We had lots of fun playing games and making memories. One day everyone went bowling, even Ezekiel threw a couple of balls down the lane. Some frames he even did better than I did, but I'm blaming it on my center of gravity being a bit off.

Something I always look forward to when I go to Visalia is playing miniature golf with my brother. Last time I was there I won, this time he won. Next time I'll be bringing my "A" game for the tie breaker!

Another added bonus of being in California was the amazing weather. One afternoon Ezekiel and I enjoyed spending time in the garden. He loved just moving the dirt from one place to another and examining all the vegetables in the garden.

Ezekiel had tons of fun with all his cousins. He loved playing with Shelby on her laptop and playing with Mariah on her phone. I'm so glad he doesn't love technology as much as his dad. We had fun at Christmas seeing the whole family! It was nice to have everyone sit together and share an amazing meal!

If Bryan puts a hat on, so does Ezekiel. If Bryan goes upstairs, so does Ezekiel. If Bryan dips his chip in salsa, so does Ezekiel. One day he found Bryan's shoes and decided he wanted to be just like daddy and wear his shoes! I do hope that Ezekiel grows up to be "just like daddy"! We need more good men in the world!

So, when it came time to make Thanksgiving dinner Ezekiel was right there to help. He ended up being Aunt Michelle's sous chef for the evening and the dinner turned out magnificent!

So, when he saw that grandma had tons of leaves to rake he put on his work boots and hat and got down to business. I'm not sure how many leaves actually were put into the trash can because of Ezekiel but he looked darn cute at whatever he was doing.

We always have lots of fun and spend lots of time cooking. For some reason I only have pictures from the night we made an Indian feast for dinner.

The time was short but we will take any time together that we can get.

A friend had given us a giraffe dress-up outfit and it happened to still fit Ezekiel when it was Halloween! He loved dressing up and having fun!

If I'm in the kitchen cooking he will stand on a chair next to me and help me add spices to the food or he will help me stir the cake batter. He really loves sweeping the floor; in fact he will randomly take the broom out of the pantry and start sweeping the kitchen without even being asked. If he is with Bryan he likes to sit in his lap and help him work on the computer. He also loves helping Bryan juice anything and everything. The pictures I have are of the two making carrot juice. Surprisingly, Ezekiel loves carrot juice probably more than any other juice. I'm starting to think that all this extra help will really come in handy when the baby comes!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. We had fun catching up with old friends and seeing many of the beautiful sights. I will be slowly adding pictures from our trip!
