December 2013


I did it! I was able to post every month this year! I will hopefully be able to keep this up for next year too! What a year, let alone a month!! We did so many things!!!! This post will mostly be full of pictures!!!

We ended November with Thanksgiving over Sally's house. Turkey, Turkey.


Lots of cousins to play with!!

We then went to see Sophia & Jake, our first show! Both kids loved it!

Jack had a number of doctor appointments and eye surgery this month. We are extremely fortunate that he is doing so well! We won't find out until the end of January if the surgery was successful. He was such a great patient! He was rewarded with a Friendly's sundae! 
On our way home from surgery. He received a fruit basket (thanks tiki!) and some planes pjs and Dusty the plane (thanks aunt Katie) and of course Planes the movie!!!
We had lots of Christmas activities this month, multiple visits to Santa, baking cookies with Mim, lots of dressing up, and of course parties!!!




The kids were great at helping to decorate too!!



They also love, love, love the snow!!! Jack loves to throw it.
 And of course Christmas!!! We all had such a wonderful day!!
Looking forward to another wonderful year!!!
