Tomorrow, Max and I are going to a 2 day marksmanship clinic put on by a group called ‘The Revolutionary War Veterans Association’.  The weekend clinic is called ‘The Appleseed Project’.  Its goal is to teach heritage, history and marksmanship.

I borrowed a Ruger 10/22 from Uncle Marc, and I am also taking my Browning Lever Action .22.  It should be a lot of fun.

Roly’s simple costume.  A young boy at Vons asked me if Roly was dressed as a monkey.

Just chillin’ in the pleather jacket from Uncle Dave and the little tykes car from Aunt Monya.

Always goofing around.

The brothers

Super – Roly!  This was his third costume of Halloween 2011.

Lookin’ good after his first haircut.

I sometimes let the kids use the camera on my phone.  Below are some shots I found.  I either forgot I took the pictures, or one of the kids took the pictures.

Max likes soccer, but he likes Gatorade more.  Look at all that fog.

Guess who. . .

I’m pretty sure this is a self-portrait.

On the day before Halloween, the local businesses in downtown Carpinteria open their doors for trick-or-treaters.  This is Lucy, and her best friend, Emma, and Emma’s younger brother, Nathan, before heading out to hit up the businesses.  Lucy and Emma did their own makeup.
