2 New Additions

My parents Got a new puppy today. His name is Diesel. He was born on my mom's b-day 

Oct 15. He is a Standard Poodle. He is so cute and Gavin just loves to play with him. 

Tovin and Wanda have had a beautiful baby girl.

Ameli Benson born on Dec 8

7lbs 9 oz and 20.5 inches

She has such amazing hair. We just love her so much.

Earrings!!!

Bella got some pretty pink diamonds for her ears. She woke up to us poking at her ears and then getting shot with the earring. She did very well, she calmed down in between them and then went to sleep two minutes after it was all done. I love how they look. She looks even more beautiful with them. 

after the first one was done. 

right before the first one

Aunt Jessica was in town for Thanksgiving so she made it to the event and Aunt Sommer too. Grammy Blom was there too but she was off looking at trains with Gavin.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Ours was fun, we first started out at the Benson's then went over to the Bloms. Bella slept most of the time why i laid low on the couch. I got the flu so Thanksgiving wasn't the best for me but everyone else had a good time.

Gavin and Josie

Disney on Ice!

Grandma took us to disney on ice. We had such a great time. Gavin loved seeing Mickey again. Gavin and his nacho face.

Disneyland Time!!!

We went to disneyland for grandma's 50 birthday. Happy Happy Birthday Mom! We had such an amazing time. I loved watching Gavin's face as he got to experience disney. He loved every minute of it. We stayed in a house called the disney theme home, you can look at it here http://www.disneythemehome.com , it was like staying at toon town. They kids loved playing with all the toys and eating all the candy. Thank you Grandma for finding this great home and for taking us to magical disneyland.
