Here is a sneak peak...

January at the beach

As you have read, we went to Kate and Ed's for New Years. It was cold, but we bundled up and and had a great time playing in the sand. Here are some pictures of us having fun on the beach!

New Years

It has become a tradition to spend new years with Kate and Ed. This year they were home so we traveled to St. George and pend the weekend with them.

We went out to Eddy Teach's to listen to some music and dance. Caroline lasted until 10:30, which was a lot longer than we thought.

We came back to the house and had new years with Caroline. Watch the video below.

It is a Cuban tradition that you throw water out the front door and eat 13 grapes, So we did both!

Christmas 2009

Christmas has come and gone for this year, but we wanted to share some pictures of our holiday.

Caroline decorated her first gingerbread house. She had fun, but did not want to put all of the candy on because she wanted to eat it.

Before

After

On December 20th we had Harris family Christmas at our house. Caroline got baby clothes, a baby bed, a leapfrog "blackberry," sweaters, a gator dress, Snow White cooking set and much more.

We made cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve. Jake told Caroline that Santa liked peanut butter cookies and I told her he likes chocolate milk!

Santa Picture

We have been talking up Santa this year and we must have done a great job. Caroline was wonderful. She went right up to Santa and sat on his lap. He asked her what she wanted for Christmas and she said "Candy Canes." He asked her if she wanted anything else and she said "Toys." Check back to see if Santa brought what she asked for.

Disney Day 4- The rest of Magic Kingdom

Our last day we decided to go back to the Magic Kingdom because we did not get to do all we wanted to the first day.


We started off by climbing tons of stairs in the Swiss Family Robinson Tree House.


We also went to Tom Sawyers Island


We caught the end of a parade and Caroline got to see Ariel (one of her favorite characters)

Caroline watching the parade, do you think she had fun?

Come on Aunt Kate, there is so much more to see!

Dumbo!

Dad's and Daughter's Dumbo ride.

Caroline told Jake that she wanted to go "up high"

We had a little extra time before we had to go home so we rode the Tea Cups again.

We had a great time on our long weekend in Orlando and we hope to make this an annual trip.
