2011 update

Now that a new year has started I feel the need to update the blog. With so much going on in such a short amount of time, it seemed to have gone by in the blink of an eye.

Between Thanksgiving, Halloween, a trip to Vegas, Christmas, New years AND dealing with these awful pregnancy symptoms, I hardly got a minute to catch my breath ( or sleep ).

Thanksgiving is one of my favourite timesof the year - This year I didn't take many pictures but It was filled with great family, food and fun - not to mention this is when we found out I was pregnant again yay! :)

Halloween feels like it happened ages ago, Benjamin dressed up as a lion. We tried to put whiskers and a little black nose but he kept wiping it off. He was running around "roaring" at everyone. He didn't really understand what trick-or-treating was but we still brought him around to a few of our friends and family.

Oh and we tried to put him in a pumpkin like we did last year.

                                                      
                                                        I still don't think he likes it very much!

Our trip to Vegas was tons of fun, we were unsure about going but are so glad we did. It was our first big trip away since our honeymoon and our first real trip away from Benjamin. We met up with my sister and her husband - We did alot of walking, eating and gambling. I could go on for days explaining everything we did and seen, but not going too.. here are a few of my favourite photo`s.

For us Christmas was crazy busy - but besides being with my own family -it was one of the best yet!

 And as for New years, Josh and I worked most of the day - but still got out to celebrate with a few family members and co-workers. A big thanks to Nana for ringing in the New Year with Benjamin.

Here`s hoping that the new year is even better than the last. I feel so blessed to have so much to look forward to. Ì wish everyone who takes the time to read about our life all the very best in the New Year - May it be filled with love, laughter, friends and family.
