December 2013

How did we get to December already? This year has flown by! We went to Disney on Ice (and took Delaney as our guest), baked Christmas cookies with GG, Davis had his holiday party at school, we visited Santa at the park Meadows Mall and celebrated Christmas, my birthday and New Year's Eve at the Elements Hotel.

November 2013

In November we had Jack's 3 month photos taken by Sharon Arnoldi (Jack was a bit older than 3 months when the photos were taken). November also brought Jack's first plane ride and trip to Disneyland. We also celebrated his first Thanksgiving! On November 30th Davis had a scootering accident and almost lost the top of his finger. It happened at the Metzler Ranch skate park when he was trying to come up the 6' half pipe. The scooter brake crushed his finger. The trip to the ER resulted in 20+ stitches, his fingertip bones shattered, a concern that they might need to remove the tip of his finger, and Eric and I almost passing out in the ER. It makes me sick just thinking about that night but luckily all healed well and you can hardly notice the injury now (several months later.

October 2013

Fall is in the air but before winter hits we had some fun outdoor activities (some were indoors, too). I apologize in advance for theses photos not being in chronological order. This Blogger site is really difficult when it comes to moving photos around. For 2014 I will be doing a photo book.
