Merry Christmas!

The best way to spread Christmas Cheer, is singing loud for all to hear...

More Costa Rica, Babyhawk's adventure and Ugly Sweaters...

Living the pura vida:

And now... Babyhawk's fun:

And... I won the second annual Ugly Christmas Sweater party prize this year at Brendan and Kristie's!! Even had working lights, which I had to turn off later in the night b/c they got so hot they were burning my skin. Babyhawk LOVES her new Santa friend. Conversation last night "Mommy, do you think Santa is hungry?": Have a great pre-Christmas week!

More Thanksgiving fun...

We had photos taken by Paper Boat Photography this weekend... working on those Christmas cards!!

Have a good week.

Thanksgiving photos...

Don't think Babyhawk didn't have her own vacation while we were in Costa Rica! Her cousins came to visit with her Uncle Rory and the crew spent their time up at Marli's house. Here are some photos:

Marli, Jared, Lola, Hans and the kiddos:

Babyhawk and "JJ." The two were either best friends or boxing opponents depending on the day and what toy was involved:

The whole crew hanging out:
Some private moments between Babyhawk and Marli's dog Lola. Babyhawk is obsessed with this dog - the poor thing can't get away from her. The funny thing is, Marli had this same love for our dog, TJ, who was the same breed, when she was about Babyhawk's age:
Have a great weekend!

Costa Rica appetizer and Riding the Pony..

We got back from Costa Rica yesterday afternoon, and everything has been busy since. Babyhawk was almost as excited to see us as we were to see her. It is great to be home.

Here is a little "appetizer" of Costa Rica photos:

And now... your Babyhawk fix for the week! We took Babyhawk and "My Geema," as she calls her, out to see the Southern Lights at the Horse Park last night. They have a petting zoo, camel rides, pony rides and Santa. Babyhawk didn't care too much for the petting zoo. Listen carefully for her new catch phrase "Aww Man!":

She was also scared of the big man in red - which was expected. She did enjoy random dancing:

And riding the pony:

She kept saying "I was ridin the pony!" all night after we left....

I hope you all have a good rest of the week. We have great photos of Babyhawk and her Thanksgiving with her cousins and Uncle Warwee (Rory) and of course more Costa Rica pics. I will get more photos up here as the week goes on!
