:: Holiday Travels ::

Thursday evening Justin and I drove up to Phoenix to catch a late flight to Pennsylvania.  We arrived at 8 am on Friday morning and Mommy picked us up from the airport.  We went home for a yummy breakfast prepared by Hope.

Friday afternoon we went to Green Dragon Farmers Market and saw barista Lillia at the coffee shop.  She made us some delicious lattes :)  Just what we needed to warm up from the chilly weather.

Saturday we traveled down to Maryland to Pop-pop & Mom-mom's house for Christmas.

Serenah was a little angel and slept the whole way!

We left the celebration in Maryland and drove to the next event!  The annual Sanger Family Christmas Dinner held each year at Uncle David and Aunt Jeanette's was the destination.

Sunday was the Children's Sunday School Christmas Program.  

Grandpoppy and Grandmommy came for the program and spent the day with us afterwards.

Sunday night I looked over and saw David had made a "corral" with pencils through his toes to keep his horses from getting away! lol

Mommy and I went for a walk on Monday and Justin followed with Benjamin on the scooter.

David and Elainah were walking with us too but they decided to hop on the scooter for an easy ride home! :)

It was a quick trip, but a very fun filled one!  We got home to our house in Arizona a little after midnight on Tuesday.

Puppies!

This past week Justin and I went and picked up two puppies!  They aren't any "specific" breed but we think they're adorable and will make great family pets!  We chose a boy and a girl, the girl we named Lexi (left) and the boy is Rex (right).

Justin was rubbing Rex's tummy and he fell asleep...

Relaxing in the shade :)

They like to go for walks, but their energy level can go from 500 to zero in .2 seconds!! lol

We were walking around the house and I stopped for a few seconds and they just planted themselves on my feet and fell asleep! I think it was their way of saying, "No more walking, please!" :D

& then there were 3...

I'm sure most of you have heard by now but for those of you who haven't yet, we're having a baby due April 2017!  Justin and I were very excited to go have an ultrasound this past week and find out the gender of little Strite.  We told my family over FaceTime and then did a little gender reveal with Justin's family to tell them all "It's a Boy!"  We bought pink and blue balloons and pushed a pin through all the pink balloons so they had little holes and would deflate quickly after being blown up.  Everyone chose a balloon and that was their guess, then we had everyone blow them up at the same time.  The people who chose pink were blowing for a few seconds before they realized there was something wrong with all the pink balloons but the blue were staying inflated.
