1 Quarter down!!!

I am not going to lie... it is ridiculous that I have not blogged in the past 5 months. My. poor. baby. is no where to be found on our blog. :( I seriously need to step it up and really am going to try to get back into the blogging world especially since it is my only current journal of our happenings (pathetic journal... see it's a CRIME). I am not even going to try to catch up on the last 5 months at the moment. ugh! **too overwhelming**

Anyway, we had a FANTASTIC Fall break these past two weeks! Rob survived (and LOVED) his 1st quarter of Optometry school! Yay! However, after his VERY VERY VERY busy quarter Carson and I were missing him LOTS and were very excited that we got to spend 2 WHOLE stress and study free weeks with him! Since we had so much time off we decided to pack up our stuff and enjoy our break in Tucson... we especially enjoyed the added perks of visiting family like free meals, babysitting, and we even some laundry service (seriously my Mom spoiled us).

Here are some of the highlights of our break!

trips to the park

eating cereal for the 1st time

Carson's first UA Game

Trip to the Zoo

Thanksgiving with the Fam

Snow at the Foothills Mall

Desert Museum

Some more of our fun included...
*A trip to see Santa
*Date Nights after the babe went to sleep!
*Too much shopping
*LOTS of fun with our families
*Lots of Yummy food
*Eegees
*Pedicures
* Lots of R&R

We sure did have fun and soaked up every minute of Rob's break! Needless to say, Monday was a very sad day as we watched Rob leave for school. Back to reality we go! Can't wait for Christmas!
