Today we got to hand Christmas Lights for the First time on our new house!! Brody and I were both excited with how they turned out and are very greatful for my parents who passed them down to us along with three Deer!




Elisa Just had to help so I bundled her up and out we went to help dad she had alot of fun running around and she was very entertained by the deer she just kept touching them!


Here is brody Trying to fix a strand that didn't work we forgot to check them before we got them all hung!


When we came inside Elisa was cold so Brody decided to wrap her up like a burrito in a blanket. She thought is was so funny!

Thanksgiving and lots of other stuff!

This past two weeks almost feels like a blur. Elisa and I have been at my parents house for the last week and a half with my grandpas funeral and thanksgiving so close together I decided to stay. My sister and her three girls also stayed. while we were there elisa threw up 3 times cut 3 teeth and learned that clapping it her new favorite thing! Thanksgiving was a fun and we had lots of yummy food. Some of the Highlights of the last weekend were:

Me Beating my brother in law at monopoly (no one ever beats him).

Waking up really early and shopping Friday morning Yes we might be crazy but is fun just to go watch all the crazy people!

We watched santa turn on the lights on the square. That is always a big event for the Rupert people!

Thanksgiving means it is time to set up your christmas tree. Mine is up and actually looks pretty good!

San Deigo and Little bit of Elisa's Birthday

We just got back last night from the long awaited trip to San Diego! We had so much fun, I love sea world and was so excited for this trip Elisa makes everything just a little more exciting! After a very long flight on Friday night no bags when we got there and Waiting for an hour for the Thrifty shuttle bus to come get us and then another to rent the car I was not so sure how the trip was going to turn out! But we had so much fun Saturday morning I took Elisa Swimming and she is a little fish! She would have jumped into the pool alone if I didn't have my eye on her every second! Sunday we went to church and then we went to Corinado Island and Seaport Village Elisa loved the beach and was soaked I had no clothes to change her into and it was freezing outside but she seemed to think she could take on the Pacific Ocean and Brody Encouraged it just a little! At Seaport Village She got to ride the Carousel and she thought that was pretty great until it was going really fast then I just ended up holding her! Monday we set out for Sea World This was definatly my favorite I love sea world I find it amazing that they can train a killer whale not to eat them and not only that let me ride them and all sorts of stuff! Sea world has just added Seasame Streets Bay of play with fun Kid rides. Most kids might be scared of the Charcters all dresses up but not Elisa she just Ran Right up there and let cookie monster hug her she also gave him a big wack right in the Eyeballs good thing they are fake! She went on one ride with brody but fell asleep while waiting in line! We had so much fun and can't wait for next time!
