New Year's Weekend at Superstition!

After a slow start and a tire blowout (yes, again!), we had a great time camping at Superstition with the Howell, Jurgensen and Ottonello families!

Dollhouse!

Someone is in LOVE! Emmy is in love that is...even though the boys both can't get enough of the dollhouse, either!

Getting Ready for Santa

The moment we walked in the door after getting home from Great Grandma and Grandpa Rockwell's house in Ramona, Ethan ran into the kitchen and started getting the goodies ready for Santa...before the other kids had any idea what he was doing!

He poured the milk and took the goodies out of the microwave (where Ethan and I hid them from Dad earlier that day).

Such a cutie...in such a hurry...he even left the microwave door open!

Ready to deliver the goodies to the special spot in the living room!

So Magical!!!

Rainy, Rainy Day!

When I first saw that rain was in the forecast for the entire week, I didn't believe it would actually happen. Usually, here in southern California, we hope for rain, but it never really comes through. Well...sure enough this time...the rain has come. It has been raining for a full week! Of course, the kids are out of school for Christmas break and everyone is going stir crazy. Today, they ran outside and played (briefly)!

Waiting on Dad...

Randy and Seth got *lost* at Home Depot. While we waited for them to surface, Ethan, Emmy and I hit the Christmas tree lot! These two...Ethan mostly...are such hams!

Holiday Party at the Boone's House

Emmy's Big Day!

Today was the big day! Unfortunately, the wonderful 3 year old performance was canceled due to rain. We were all so sad. Next year Emmy, you will steal the show for sure!

Emmy's First Movie!!!

Today we took Emmy to see her first movie at the theater. We saw "Tangled" and now Emmy loves Rapunzel! She was SO excited and, of course, SO cute!

My Babies!
