Cruisin' at Christmas

Rob and Emma took an 8 day cruise to Mexico the week before Christmas. Emma's parents graciously took all four kids that week.
The trip took Rob and Emma to Cabo San Lucas then down to Puerto Villarta

Griffith Observatory

Saturday we took a day trip to LA to meet with a friend of Emma's and see the stars. It rained the WHOLE day. But the kids still enjoyed the planetarium and telescopes.

Christmas cheer

Christmas was spent with family and friends in California.  Emma's brother's family was with us Christmas morning. It was a party.

The kids couldn't get enough of the iPad this week...what to do about that?

A favorite quote of the season...Ethan and Isaac were opening their gifts.Ethan says to Isaac: your BeyBlade is better than mine! But, mine is greater than yours.

And he is...

Approved for research!

Arizona Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving in Tempe this year. Grandma and Grandpa are getting older. We wanted the kids to have good memories we them. I think they did. Last time we went down was in 2010.
