Soccer Finale

Superstar

After the last Cheetah's Soccer Game for 2017, the team went to Pizza Jerk for a team lunch.  Coaches Oakley and Ryan spoke about the skills of each girl on the team and handed out trophies.  It was a great end to the soccer season and Maddy was very proud.  And so were Steve and I!

Cheetahs!

Halloween!

Warlock, Witch and Cat

Happy Halloween from the Fausts! Warlock Steve, Witch Marnie, Cat Maddy and Pumpkin Liam.  We went to a party at Katie Skaar/Lonny's home, and trick or treated using Shana's home as a base for the fantastically Halloweeny Alameda Neighborhood.  Another fun night in the books.

Beverly Beach Yurts

Riley, Kieran, Althea, Olivia, Maddy

In October we took a trip to Beverly Beach with the Flynns, Gregoriches and Rocks.  We stayed in yurts and headed to Newport to the aquarium for one day.  We aren't used to being dog-owners yet so were relieved to know that Liam was allowed to stay in our yurt!

French Prairie Gardens

Carson and Maddy

Steve, Maddy, Maddy's friend Carson and I visited French Prairie Gardens this autumn.  Carson and Maddy had a good time jumping on the trampoline, riding the train and playing around.  We also met up with Ben (from ChildRoots) and his family.  It was a beautiful fall day and a lot of fun!
