DECEMBER

2019 is quickly coming to a close! 

Jack played indoor soccer this winter and it was a blast. He did SO good. I like the games, they are fast paced and indoors. I don't have any pictures, but he played hard and was the top scorer. I think he really enjoyed it.

He also continues to do great at the piano

Annual gift exchange with my family at our house. 

It's turned into a fun tradition

See, I told you she likes to hold an ear

This is to celebrate that we've finally decided we all like Costa Vida. 

Deciding on a place to grab dinner is torture. Someone suggests a place and 2 or 3 others disagree. 

Finally everyone likes Costa Vida
