Early 2010

The first grade started a Brownie troop



The Indian Princesses went to Big Bear



All three kids joined the YMCA basketball league (and Eric coached Nick's team)



Katie built a model of Mission San Luis Obispo





and Holy Family's Jog-a-thon was a great event as usual!

Julianna's 7th birthday

Julianna's actual birthday happened while she was in Big Bear with the Indian Princess program, but we had cake and presents when she got back home.



Katie and Mommy took Julianna to the American Girl Cafe for one of her birthday presents!











Julianna's birthday celebration was a trip to Disneyland with three friends!

Holiday Season

We went down to Pioneer Square, and the cousins joined us for a bit of fun in the toy shop and the library













We had a cookie decorating party!











Great memories with Grandma, such as cooking together and seeing The Nutcracker





Enjoying each others' company!











Driving back to Pasadena with the Duck fans, who were headed to the Rose Bowl!



Back home, playing the new Wii!



We got up really early on New Year's Day to see the parade live and in person with the Morrison family (Tyebkhan, O'Leary, etc), who always make us feel like a welcome part of the clan. What a wonderful way to ring in the new year!

Nick's 5th birthday

The celebrations for Nick's 5th birthday included a MyGym party (lots of little boys running around, but someone else entertaining them? Sounds like a great party to me!), a day at Disneyland, birthday snack at preschool, and lots of time for playing with new toys!
