Adventures with Papa and Mimi

While Papa and Mimi were visiting, we had lots of adventures.
 Running on the Beach
 So much fun!
 Working on a Sandcastle
 Big Boy Beckett
He seems so much older these days. 
 Teamwork

 Beautiful Sunset
 Papa and Mimi brought the boys some airplane gliders.  They spent the morning launching them off the deck. 
Little Pierce
 Wow!  Look at them go!
 Mimi and the boys made Uncle Brett some "special" signs. 
 They also brought the boys some coins to fill up their piggy banks with. 
This afternoon we headed to Lone Ranch to do a little whale watching.
 Looking for Whales
 Even Daddy got a turn with the binoculars. 
 There was a group of whales feeding right in front of us.  They were fun to watch.
 Beckett is always on an adventure.
 Daddy and Papa
What a great couple of days with family.

Merry Christmas 2013

This morning the boys were excited to come out and find their stockings full of goodies.
 
 Pierce was so much fun this year.  He was excited for each and every present. 
 Beckett was a super opener.  He was right there to assist little brother in opening his gifts. 
 Pierce LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the gift that Big Brother had picked out during our advent activities.  He spent most of the morning playing with the kitchen mixer. 
 Daddy and Pierce
 So many great presents.
 New OSU Hats
 Go Beavs
 During all the present opening, Beckett sat and took a break to read his new books. 
 Daddy and His Special Mug From the Boys
 Mommy and Sterling
 Beckett and Papa putting together his new Plasma Car.
 A super special gift was that Papa and Mimi flew in from Florida to be with the boys on Christmas morning.  They drove all through the night just to be here when the boys woke up.  What a fun surprise. 
 Beckett checking out his new laptop with Mimi.
 Tonight we had family over for dinner.  The table was full of grown-ups, so the boys were excited to have their own little table.

Christmas Eve

This evening we all got dressed up and headed to church.
 During the service, they had all the kids come up front for a story.  The Lunde boys were a little hesitant to go on stage. 
 After the story, the kids were invited to lead the singing.
Beckett sang along, but Pierce just kept staring at the crowd.
 They did like the applause part.
 Afterwards we headed to Grandpa and Grandma's house for presents. 
 Pierce was really into opening the gifts this year.
 The Boys and Their New Sleeping Bags
 Family Time
 Grandpa and Pierce both got a laptop for Christmas.
 Auntie and Grandma with their matching signs
 New baby means new diaper bag.
 Everyone needs more socks.

 A Foosball Table too!
 Pierce was the lucky one to find the pickle ornament this year.
