Passing Time

When Jason is gone Saturday's tend to be very boring!
So me and Bella decided to head to the Beach.
It was relaxing, I always get an itch for Summer this time of year.

Christmas Eve 2009

On Christmas Eve we went to Jason's work to party.

collecting leaves and sticks- a must for Bella

Bella saw a huge frog, a monkey, touched a snake, and got a balloon animal.
Then we went to the photo booth to take our picture.

After the party we took Bella to see the
Princess and the Frog.
This was her first time at the movie theater.
She was so excited- it was so fun watching her, she loved it!

Early Christmas

Me preparing Christmas Eve Dinner-

Jason grilling steak on his new grill-

Our new Flat Screen-
I think we are a little behind the times!
We don't even have cable and probably never will!

Rock Band

This girl knows how to Rock!
Thanks to her daddy-

San Jose

Jason had a job in San Jose the weekend before Christmas, so we tagged along.
It was so nice to be with him.
We shopped at the outlet mall in Gilroy, stayed
in the Marriott, and ate yummy food.

We went and saw the Winchester Mansion.
The tour is over a mile long, there are windows in the floor,
stairs and doors that led to no where.
It was definitely the craziest house I have ever seen.

(I love the face Bella is pulling in this picture)

Santa

Santa came and visited the kids at our ward Christmas Party.
Bella wasn't to sure about it!!

She sat on his lap but was very nervous.

Bella loved dancing to Christmas music.
Her favorite was Little Drummer Boy by Josh Groban.

She loved watching Frosty the Snowman,
Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, and
Santa Clause is Coming to Town.

She had 25 presents from Grandma Nakken!
She opened 1 everyday until Christmas.
Each one was a different ornament for the tree.
