Ooops Do I have a Blog?

The store I work in Chula Vista had a Holiday Parade through the mall.  We represented REI by riding our lit up bikes through the parade.  The girls joined us and Quinn was quite the entertainer.

This is Quinn on the far side, she would stop in front of a crowd and ring her bell on her bike and when she figured out they were clapping for her it was pretty funny.  She also wiped out at one point and silenced the crowd.  She got up wiped her hands on her shirt and kept going.  This also drew quite the cheering section.

Getting ready for the parade.  They had reindeer antlers but opted to not wear them.  My bosses two sons are the boys.

Weeeee.

We have been bike riding around the block a lot.  Here are some fun biking pics.

She is getting very comfortable on her push bike (no pedals).  The other day she was ahead of us and I saw her trying to get her bike up on the 2ft rock wall.  I get to her and she says, "mom I want to try and ride my bike on the wall"   Hmm.  Not ready for that :)

It rained!!  Woo Hoo.  We did some puddle jumping and then even got rained on!
 



Super Emma.  I pointed out she lost her clothes, but she said it helped her fly faster to help people.

Quinn found the littlest chair in the toys at Grandmas and decided to take it for a spin.

Quinny "helping" Aunt Terri make some pie.  She may have dipped into the flour.

We had to take a shuttle from the parking lot to the museum.  Quinn wasn't quite sure about being out of her carseat.

Total Farside cartoon.

Yep we even hit the beach mid October.  Thanks San Diego.
