Unfortunately for everyone, Grandma Lasley was in the hospital and eventually passed away during our visit. So we weren't able to get the kids and Grandma and Grandpa Coburn together too much. But, when we were together we made the most of it and just piled on.

Kayla also had the extreme pleasure of really getting to know her cousin Sophie. They are just a few months apart in age but until now have been too little to really play. Not an issue anymore. They made great friends fast.

Kayla was so happy with her new friend that she couldn't keep her hands off of her.

Since we weren't coming back for Christmas a couple of the grandparents had presents ready for the girls to open. Kayla LOVED this. She is really beginning to love princesses, funny how that happens to a girl all of a sudden. So she was super excited with even the smallest of princesses.

Nana and Papa decided to get this guy for Daddys' birthday present. The girls had a blast floating him around their house for a few days.

As a special treat on our last night Nana and Papa treated everyone to a special meal at the Japanese Steakhouse. Kayla loved watching the chefs prepare the meal. While Mom and Sydney loved EATING the meal.

Towards the end of the trip Reagan lost her first tooth. We were all screaming and giving her lots of attention and taking pictures of her mouth. Copy cat that she is, Kayla demanded mouth shots too. So, here you are. Look at me!

Forward Roll...

I "attempt" the hopscotch but its really just a jump in place exercise.

This ladder thing is pretty cool.

Because once you reach the top of the ladder its time for this.

I can also do this...

And whatever this is...

As you can see, I'm a natural.

Costume selection turned out to be tough one this year. Miss Kayla couldn't decide between being Dora, kitty, or puppy. So we decided to take her around to a few costume stores and take a consensus. Time after time, puppy won out. Puppy it is.

Group shot of the year.

We once again had the Sandoval gang over for pizza and trick or treating. Looks like this is becoming a tradition. I learned that trying to get a group shot of kids who are ready for trick or treating is quite difficult. Not too bad.

On occasion she could be persuaded by loud cheering to check out other games. But, the hippo always won out. Something about smacking those hippos was mesmerizing.

Nice seat, but way too big.

But, this one was just right.

Here's the gang and some of the days picks.

One the way out we made a quick stop at the hay maze. Apparently you are supposed to run on top of the maze not in it.

That is until you reach these huge cracks. How is a baby to conquer these?

Ah, like this. Its a tough job, but someones gotta do it.

Dad had the foresight to order a new TV show on Netflix for the girls to enjoy over the long weekend. Much to our surprise this show was a huge hit. Well, not too much of a surprise. After all it was a favorite of both of ours as kids. Good to see the genes passed on to our kiddos.

On Sunday we woke up to a light dusting of snow. Our first snowfall of the year. The big girls went straight outside to make snow angels. Kayla however couldn't be taken away from her "Boom Boom kitty." You have to be a true Lion-o fan to understand that one.
