This Weeks Happenings

This week we had a lot going on, but most of it was really fun! We had a play date with our friends Erin and her twin boys Peter and Nick and Megan and her little girl Stella. 

We also had our monthly dinner party, and this time it was a wine tasting party hosted by Tom, Heather and Owen. Tom made yummy steaks and Owen even let Avery play with some of his old toys. Below Avery is playing a concert on the piano.
 
Today we went to Shark Reef with Grammy. Avery LOVES fishes and "oooohed" and "ahhhhed" the whole time.

Blazer's Weekend in LA

This past weekend we took a rather impromptu trip to LA. Our friend, John, offered Nate a ticket to join him in the luxury box of the Laker's/Blazer's game (who could pass that up??). We stayed with our friend's John & Lauren and it was great to see a lot of old friends. While Nate had fun at the game, Avery and I went to the Grove to meet up with her Auntie Cilla. Although we didn't get home until really late Sunday night/Monday morning, it was worth it.

Avery had her first Chick-fil-a experience
Playing Settlers of Catan, we love and you will too!

Welcome to 2009


This has been a very good year. As we ring out 2008, I can't help but think about how special this year will always be because of Avery's birth. I think about how many times she will write 2008 in her lifetime. She's the highlight of the whole year. With that said, our family welcomes 2009 and all the wonderful things it will bring. We wish all the best to you and yours. May we all experience blessings beyond our imagination.
