December Summary

In December:

We hosted an ugly Christmas sweater party.

Yummy treats, bad outfits, fun friends = good times

John was sworn in to practice law in the state of California

He has already been to court a few times!

At the swearing in ceremony with the Calders sans Amy

Celebratory dinner for John courtesy Gavin and Amy Jo

Multiple Christmas performances with these gals. I think this years song is one of our best.



A Merry Cohen Christmas at my parents house the weekend before we left for Northern California. Cohen is very loved and was showered with gifts.

Visited Candy Cane Lane. Cohen was digging all the Christmas lights.

First visit with Santa.

Could have been better. Could have been worse.

Other notable moments:

• End of semester for me! Grades are in and now I have 8 weeks off!


• Christmas cards are almost done (late I know)


• Lots of family, singing and music

The Tree

The one

Having fun at the lot

Oh Tannenbaum!

Oh, TannenBOMB
(wake up call the morning after it was decorated)

Walk Like a Man

Remember when I had a blog and I would update it all the time?
Me neither.

Please accept this video as my apology.



Casper is walking at 9 1/2 months (this video was taken Sunday 12/10/09). He still prefers the crawl as his primary mode of transportation but I don't think that will last for long. I have mixed emotions about this.
