Tour of Christmas Lights


We took a tour of Christmas Lights on a horse-drawn trailer on Sunday evening. It was so much fun! Bruce was blown away by the lights! And when he first saw the Clydesdale Horse he couldn't stop staring. I think he was making the connection between the horse and his new spring/rocking horse at home.

Today Bruce got his first letter from Santa Claus in the mail. He wrote to Bruce telling him all about the elves and all of the work they have been doing to get ready for Christmas. It was such a cute, nice surprise! Only 10 more days...until Christmas. Can't wait!

Bruce & Kaden's 1st Birthday Party!




Bruce and Kaden celebrated their 1st birthday party on December 6th with family and friends. We had such a great time and the boys really enjoyed themselves. Bruce really dug into his smash cake! At first he didn't know what to do so he stuck his fingers in it and held them in there. But then Scotty helped him out and showed him the way! After that, there was no stopping him! :) The kids all bounced around in the bounce houses and had so much fun! We really are blessed with such great family and friends. Bruce had such a wonderful 1st birthday thanks to everyone who came and celebrated with him!

WOW!! 30 ALREADY??



We celebrated my 30th Birthday on Friday (Dec 4th) and let's just say it went out with a bang! Bruce and I went to my work Christmas party and then met up with everyone at the Venue. The drinks were a flowing and I partied like I was 21! I wasn't moving too fast the next day though!

Bruce's 1st Birthday on Dec 3rd




We celebrated Bruce's 1st birthday on December 3rd with Grandma & Grandpa Miller from Michigan. We had such a great day! Bruce opened gifts in the morning and then in the afternoon we took him to the Aquarium at the Pier in downtown St. Pete. He was fascinated watching all of the cool fish swim around. Later that night, we celebrated with his first birthday cake. Bruce enjoyed it and had fun playing in it.

On his birthday, he started getting his balance standing on his own. He was taking a step or two toward Grandma and Grandpa, but that was about as far as he would get. I can tell that he's getting more comfortable on his feet though. Probably won't be too long before he's running around here!
