CHRISTMAS 2011
Christmas this year was great. We decided to really party hard and take the whole week off and get out of AZ for a while. We ran errands on Christmas Eve and had a delicious dinner, and just kinda hung out. Christmas day, my Mom made us wait until after church (WHAT!!!??? lame) to open gifts, so we went to church and then came home and opened all the gifts. Hung out and ate all day. The day after Christmas we went as a family down to San Diego to explore and mess around. George has never really been there and I haven't been down there in the last 5 years. So it was FUN.
We went to the Mormon Battalion and we found GOLD!
The next day we went to Disneyland to re-new our passes, it was the craziest I have ever seen it! There were so many people. They had stopped letting people into the park it was so full. Good thing that was not our once a year trip because I would have been so mad at the amount of people in the park. It was PURE madness! We were only there for a few hours and here is my favorite picture of the night...
(haha love you dad!)
NEW YEARS 2012
Wednesday we made plans with my Mom and Dad to come back to Gilbert to check out some houses and just see where we live. So we pull into Gilbert at about 1:30 am Thursday morning. We are woken up by my Mom at about 4 am and she says that we need to go to the hospital, Dad is having some weird pains in his chest and "its just not right." So we roll out of bed, run every red light and take him to the emergency room. Turns out my Dad was having a heart attack (say WHAT?)! He was rushed to an other hospital via ambulance (they had the lights on and everything) and went right into the operating room. They ran a stent up his leg, into his heart and unblocked the artery. He was out of surgery and in recovery by 7:30 am.... it all went crazy fast. So that extended my parents stay in Gilbert. He had to stay at the hospital until Saturday afternoon and then one night here in the area before he was able to travel back to CA. So that means that the whole family came to Gilbert for New Years (we had left our car in CA, and most of our junk, as we were originally planning on being back in CA on Thursday). My brothers and SIL came with our car and stuff on Friday. We went and checked out downtown Phx and ASU. New Years eve was spent in a hotel room while my dad was sleeping and we watched TV, it was pretty chill. We are hoping to keep everyone out of the hospital in 2012 (not counting when I have the baby).

It was a great and scary holiday season and we are looking forward to next year.
Speaking of next year, March is coming up and we are freaking out! We had an appointment yesterday and my baby is measuring about a week ahead of schedule at about 2.11 lbs. We had an ultrasound and they surprised us with some 3-D pictures. I am in LOVE with his checks! I just want to kiss them! They are kinda blurry because he was all squished, and the tech tried to clean them up but this is the best we got. I have to go back for another ultrasound in 2 weeks because they did not get a good picture of the spine and his hands... so maybe we will get a less blurry one.
