First official school photos!

Here are Boo's very first official school photos. They grow up so fast! I thought they would be cheesy with one of those blue fabric backgrounds, but school pictures have come a long way since I was in school. I'm very glad that I decided to buy them. I think he looks hilarious in the class picture, by the way. What do you think?

Here is the class photo. That's Teacher Rachael. The photographer must've told everyone to sit up straight, put their hands in their laps, and smile.

Here's a close-up of Boo. He's not actually taller than those people he's sitting next to.

Festival of Lights

Today, we went to the Festival of Lights in Los Altos, which is kind of like a mini electrical parade that the city has every year. Boo had a lot of fun, but mostly because we gave him a glow necklace. He did like the bands, though.

First, we started off the evening with dinner and gelato for dessert. Boo really liked the bubble gum gelato, even though I thought it was pretty disgusting.

Then, we bribed a police man to take a pic of us next to a fire truck on our walk over to the parade.

Here is Boo with his beloved light sticks.

Here I am, sneaking bites of Boo's dinner, a sunbutter and jelly sandwich.

A couple of the floats. I wonder where they're stored the rest of the year?

Finally, a pic of Boo and his best friend, who he was excited to see. He gave him a glow stick, even!

Pics of third dinner (with Boo's best friend's family) not shown.

Los Altos Holiday Stroll

The town of Los Altos, which is about 10 minutes away from us, is so cute. It's a little slice of Americana. They had this event called the "Holiday Stroll," where all the shops downtown were decorated for X-mas and serving holiday treats like apple cider and cookies and stuff. It was cute, and Gavin especially liked the carolers.

Here are some pics from our holiday stroll.
