November pictures




Blake's been doing better in the form of fewer meltdowns and an improved work ethic.  Today he washed a couple of things so we could post them for sale on craigslist.  We already sold the lawnmower.  Nice! 

Kira and Hanna are growing right up.  They are always happy and helpful. 




We left for Utah last night but the snow was coming down so much that 80 got shut down in both directions from Alta to Truckee.  We waited for two hours and finally turned around.  Today we spent getting the home decluttered, watching TV and running the RC cars. 

Okay, bye.

The youngest three

Hanna is into getting her picture taken lately.  Oh, yesterday I asked her whether she wanted to run the RC boats with us.  She started jumping up and down, which is her way of excitedly saying Yes.  She still doesn't talk, but that's okay.  



Mister was happy vegging in front of the TV.



Blake likes playing Nintendo Switch, which usually results in sibling fights and I take it away and hide it. 

Fun times!  Yeah.

My birfday and some other fun pictures

This is the pose they do for advertising halloween costumes.  Hanna was pretty excited about trick-or-treating and quickly picked up the routine.  


Parker was all about the candy and after not too much time, said, "I'm done."  


Look who's getting to be so big!  She still doesn't talk, but she communicates effectively, especially when saying NO!  



This is Buster, the offspring of Rocky, the stray cat who birthed two litters in our yard.  Initially I wanted to keep Buster outside since Suzie was marking her territory on the landing and I didn't want any more cat pee smell.  But when there were raccoons in the yard and the cats were fighting them, we decided to take Buster inside.  I put him in the litter box and he figured out what to do.  He is the most docile, patient cat ever.  He purrs real loud.  Rocky still prefers to be outside all the time.  Suzie still thinks she's the boss but she's not very personable.

What do you think of Scott's hair?  I think he should cut it, but at least it's combed here.  I've been cutting it ever since he was a baby. 


She has all the McMillan attributes.  Dirty face, brown eyes, and a cute smile. 

For my birthday din din we had over the Olsons and the Fishers.  I made a pork tenderloin on the barbie and homemade snickers.  We ran the RC cars in the golf course right before dinner.




 I wish Mister would put himself to bed more often. 


Okay, bye. 

Danny's Birthday

We went to Monterey again for Danny's birthday and lucked out with amazing weather.  Blake was pretty difficult last time we went so Gle...
