December 2013 ReCap

December. Of course December was filled with lots of Christmas CHEER! But that was a whole other post. So check that out for our Christmas happenings. Besides the fun Christmas-y things we did in December, there were plenty of other events too. I co-hosted a baby shower for a sweet friend...
 
 
 ....was a bridesmaid for my dear sweet friend, Alli,

  aaaand to complete my running events for 2013 that consisted of two 1/2 marathons in May and September, I ran a full marathon. I think it was my first and last full marathon. Man, that was a long (4hrs 22 min to be exact) 26.2 miles. ;)


 We also had more "Nana time" between all these events while staying with my parents, got to see a dear friend from years past, went to the Butterfly Wonderland...
 
 

 


 
 

...and celebrated our puppy, Zoe's 4th birthday.

 

 Every year on her birthday, Zoe gets to sit at the table and eat her special dog-friendly cupcakes. Every year we have the most hilarious pictures of the kid's reaction to the dog at the table. This series of pictures cracks me up! Pay extra attention to Addilyn's faces... as it goes from confusion, to laughter, to Zoe about to eat her cupcake...








 We got some more snow back home and go to go sledding a few times and even made a snowman! 

 

 Lukas got to take a special Christmas trip to Build-A-Bear with Nana and Grandpa. I've done this once before with my sister when she was little, and it is such a neat experience! They make it so special for the kids! Lukas got to pick a sound to put in his puppy (he picked the Star Wars theme song), a scent, a beating heart that he personally warmed and kissed before placing in the puppy, and got to push the pedal that filled his puppy with stuffing. Once he was stuffed, Lukas gave him a bath, picked out some undies for him, made a birth certificate, and picked out the coolest Yoda costume and named him "Yoda."

 
 

And to top off the month of December, we took a trip to Bearizona on New Years Eve and went to a fun New Years Eve Party at a friend's house. WooWee. It was a busy month. I'm actually glad January is looking rather boring. Sometimes I guess boring is good. ;)

 



 
 


WHAT?!?! Where is my signature that is always at the end of my posts?!!? It's always here just waiting for me to finish. Geez. That's my favorite part and its... GONE. Great. Well, I'll just make my own... 
 
With love & grace, 
Aleecia
