the whole month of december flew by so fast that i didnt get a chance to blog at all . so i am going to catch up by posting one looong post full of our months activities. so here goes.
we kicked off the month by picking out our christmas tree. Jameson really wanted a flocked tree but i thought it would be too messy in the house so i vetoed that idea. sorry jameson, maybe next year. here he is posing with the huge tree that he wanted:
jameson wrote a letter to santa telling him how nice (and not naughty) he had been this past year and we took him to macy's so he could drop it in their santa mailbox. he was REALLY excited!
then we waited in line for almost 2 hours at south coast plaza to take his picture with santa. i couldn't believe how long the line was.
the next sunday was my moms annual tamale day. all the girls gather at my moms house and drink wine while we make a whole bunch of tamales. we make the traditional pork with red sauce and also green chili and jack cheese ones. both are delicious. hats off to my mom who prepares everything before we get there so we can just spread the masa and chit chat all day!
dec. 19th was my last day of work for the year. yay! that evening ray and i headed down to the hard rock san diego for a new era / danny way party. we had soo much fun at the party and the hotel was nice too. i highly recommend staying there.
This year we hosted all of our friends and family at our house on christmas eve. thank you to everyone that came over. we love seeing all of you and enjoyed having you over to our house.
christmas day was spent at my moms house, rays moms house and my grandmas house. in that order :) its kind of hectic going from place to place but we made it work.
and the last event of december .....
jameson took all of his christmas money and piggy bank change and opened his first bank account! he already has more cash than me!
Happy 09 everyone!!!
