The Stache

It has been requested that The Moustache be photographed and subsequently documented on the web. Well, here's it is:

Whoops! Wrong stache!


Let's try again:



Yup, there it is.

Movember - weeks gone by (in reverse)

As every month, November was busy. Matthew has been cultivating a wicked handle bar mustache to raise funds for prostate cancer research as a part of Movember .

This month Grandma Diane visited and Aunty Denise, Grandma Helen, Amber, Aaron, Ethan and Kaiden came down for the SoCal experience. We joined them at a few theme parks, add to that our own busy schedules and getting colds *twice* this month and thre you have it. November. Of course, the month is not over, and Matthew has his big candidacy exam on Tuesday where he has to present his proposed Thesis project to a panel of Caltech Astronomy professionals, then US Thanksgiving and subsequent black friday shopping will round off next week. We are all exhausted.

Here's some pics from our adventures, backwards from today, because that's how they got uploaded :).



Diwali was last Sunday, I made a Rangoli, a pattern on the ground using tinted sand.

Bronson dancd the night away and was very upset when we had to leave.

On Saturday we went to see Thomas!



Edmund can now crawl at high speeds, get toys out of boxes and pull himself up and cruis along anything and everything.
Grandma Diane took Bronson, Edmund and I to Disneyland (Matthew had to work) where we met up with the other Bazinets. It was the first day that it was decorated for Christmas and we saw the Holiday parade, which was awesome. We were too busy having fun to take photos of the venue.
Last last Sunday we went to Seaworld with Grandma Diane and met up with the Bazinet crew. It was our first visit and we loved it. We saw Shamu and the Sea Lion show and the Manates! Love the manatees. And lots more. I couldn't resist getting soaked on the two big rides, too bad we didn't do those when the sun was shining.




And finally, here is one lonely picture of Edmund at Legoland where we went Saturdaybefore last, with grandma Diane. It was sort of a dreary weathr day, and Bronson was quite sick, and we got stuck on a ride, so we didn't really have a spectacular outing. We have 2 day passes, though, so we will need to go back before Christmas, hopefully have a better day then.

Hope everyone is well, we are almost all better, Edmund still has a runny nose. B, E and I are heading out to the zoo with Aunty Laura... so much fun, so little time for sleep.
