Alex's Third Birthday!


For Alex's birthday, everyone went to Chuck E. Cheese's. Alex wanted nothing to do with the Chuck E. Cheese guy. Alex got a Cookie Monster cake; unfortunately, over half the cookies were "mysteriously" missing by the time he blew out the candles... Alex got a lot of cool gifts, but the coolest one would have to be the bike! He also had a lot of fun with his dad in the arcade, and he almost enjoyed putting the coins in the machines as much as the games! It looks like Ashlee and Tyler got the most tickets, though. Everyone stuffed themselves with pizza and cake. Amber was having a little too much fun with the cake; the little stink got blue frosting and smeared it on everybody's face, including Grandma and Ahau! Any ideas to get her back? Ahau had a cute "little monster" shirt on, and he even gave the camera a "little monster" expression. His true side is finally revealed! Gavin and Deidre, again, missed out on a family adventure. =( We wish they could've been here! At least they'll be here for Christmas. Kristen and Sione had to leave early, but they still had a lot of fun. Amy scored in basketball, and everyone was trying to out do each other. We all had so much fun! It was like we were all little kids again.






















Thanksgiving


Happy Thanksgiving everyone! It seems like the Amos family had a "singles" Thanksgiving this year: The only people who were married were Janine and Stephen! Gavin, Deidre, Kristen, and Sione were in different states and unfortunately couldn't join. Kristen and Sione were in Oregon visiting Kristen's dad, and Gavin and Deidre were in Washington visiting Gavin's family. Don't worry, next year at least Gavin and Deidre will be joining us!
