December- the most wonderful time of the year! :)

December is the month we joined Luke in GA and we were together as a family again.  But sadly we weren't together for Christmas this year so luckily Luke was able to visit for 2 weeks starting Thanksgiving week.  The first week of December we tried to go to the Twinkling Lights parade with a couple of Luke's cousins, but we got dumped with snow before the parade even started so we didn't stay to see it.  Here's a couple pics of the boys while we were waiting for the parade (before the snow)


they love each other lol

Before Luke went back to GA alone, Auntie Liz took some family pics for us for our Christmas Cards.  They turned out super cute!  here's a couple of them





he found a string

rawr!

Here's another photo shoot that we did with Auntie Liz just for fun



we asked him where Auntie Liz was and he pointed




Carlos experienced his first snow.  He LOVED it! 

saying hi to me

showing me where the snow is

walking in the snow with Auntie Liz

I made a mini snow man and Carlos just wanted to throw snow balls

One night Carlos discovered that he fits inside an empty diaper box.  He thought it was so funny.






Here's a pic of our new house in the building process

I'll do a separate post for Christmas :)



November-FINALLY moving...sorta

November is when we found out that we were moving to Georgia and when we started the process of buying our first home.  Luke had to go to GA with out us so Carlos and I stayed in Albuquerque and enjoyed our time with family while he was gone.  Luckily he was able to come back for Thanksgiving. Here's pics of what our November 2011 was like.

We went to Tucson to visit Auntie Esther and Uncle Tony

And there is November.  Just seven more months to update...



October-and the plot thickens....

 here's all the pics of what we did during October 2011

We went to The Living Planet Aquarium with my Mom and Carlos loved it!

The rest of October (through Christmas) was spent in New Mexico with Luke's family while we were waiting on a job for Luke.  Here's what we did during the rest of the month.
