Flying south for a few days of R&R...

Mommy has finally finished her semester of Nursing School so we headed to FL for a visit with Mommom Nijole & Rawy at their beach house in Englewood. They have such a great place to visit because it is right on the beach. It was a little cooler than it usually is when we go, but we were able to wear shorts and t-shirts during the days. This trip Mommom taught Mommy & Daddy how to crochet granny squares (granny squares make up the stockings that we hang on the mantel every Christmas) and me and Emerson how to crochet a chain. I even made my own necklace! One afternoon we decorated a couple of gingerbread houses. We spent most of the days walking the beaches looking for sharks teeth. Whenever we would find one we would say, "sharks tooth, ooo-ha-ha!!" :) We brought home several bags of sharks teeth! Thank you Mommom & Rawy for a wonderful trip!

Here Comes Santa Claus....

We are in the midst of the holiday season and so many exciting things are happening! This year we are traveling to FL to see Mommom Nijole and Rawy in Englewood for about 6 days. After that we are headed to NC to be with Aunt Jessy, Uncle Carl, Trey, Poppop Suter, Uncle Eric, and Uncle Drew (plus the sweet growing baby boy cousin in Aunt Jessy's belly!). Since we are spending the holidays away, Mommy took out our individual boxes of ornaments and let us each decorate one of her pre-lit small trees. They look so pretty! She also took us to see Santa. Emerson brought his list with him and told him that he would like an iPod shuffle, a Mario remote control, RED highlighters, and Legos. I asked him for a kindle. Mom says that's a pretty big boy gift, so I'm not sure if I'll get it or not. I'd also like an iPod shuffle.
