Jack's First Thanksgiving

Jack enjoyed his first Thanksgiving with his mommy and daddy at home. We had a wonderful turkey feast and enjoyed many football games and naps;c) We have so much to be thankful for this year...a beautiful baby boy, wonderful family and friends, and a warm home filled with lots and lots of love!!

Jack's Road Trip Adventure

Jack went on his first big road trip through California where he met many of his friends and family. His first stop was in San Jose where he met the Nagles and the Daenzers. He had so much fun hangin' with baby Nina who is only six weeks older than him. Gary and Virginia Nagle were so kind to host us at there house and it was great to get caught up with Becky and compare our many "mom" stories.

After spending a few days in San Jose we headed off to Sacramento. While in Sacramento we stayed with the Taylor family, Ashley, Chad, Cade and Cooper. Jack had so much fun playing with the "big boys" Cade and Cooper!

After visiting Sacramento we headed up to Redding to meet the rest of the family. We stayed with Jack's Great Grandma Morrow and Grandma Mary and Grandpa John came to meet us! We had a fabulous dinner at Aunt Nicci and Uncle Jim's and enjoyed visiting with Aunt Nancy and the rest of the fam;c) While in Redding Molly's 7th grade teacher, Mrs. Burkett, came to visit. It was such a joy to see her and have her meet Jack!

On our way back home we were so lucky to have Grandma Mary come back with us. We made the drive all the way from Redding to Los Angeles in one day! Jack was quite the trooper and was the perfect road trip companion!

Jack's First Halloween

Jack celebrated his first Halloween as a lion, the Cowardly Lion from the Wizard of Oz to be exact. Molly went as Dorthy and Allen went as theWizard. It was a little hard finding a Wizard of Oz wizard costume so Allen's costume looked a bit more like a leprechaun costume but it got the point across;c)

Jack attended his first Halloween Party at our friend Pat and Frank's house. He met baby Pierce there who was dressed as the cutest Jack-in-the-Box!
