Spending Time with the Ettingers

The Ettingers Visit Atlanta- December

We had a long overdue visit with our friends - the Ettingers family - over New Year's. We met Stacie and Brian's 3 1/2 year old son, Ben, who they adopted this past summer. They also met Riley for the first time. And we had so much fun seeing how big Cole and Libby had grown since the last time we saw them.

The weather was nice, so we spent the afternoon at the playground.

Christmas

We opened up our presents and stockings Christmas morning. We all had fun staying in our PJs all morning. Sydney played Santa's helper and passed out all the presents.

Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve at Mimi's place. We all had fun, enjoyed a yummy dinner, opened some presents, and played.

Hanukkah

Sydney and Riley had so much fun lighting the Hanukkah candles every night and then opening presents. They both love playing with (and inside!) their new dollhouse. Sydney of course loved seeing what new toys she opened, but Riley was more interested in tearing open everyone's presents!

Neighborhood Kids' Holiday Party

Sydney had fun seeing friends, making crafts, playing games, and making and eating holiday cookies.

December- Decorating for Hanukkah and Christmas

Fall Fun

This is a Thanksgiving picture with Nana and Grandpa. Riley was NOT cooperating, but at least we are all in a picture together!

Sydney had so much fun helping daddy rake leaves!

November- visitors and hanging out

November 5th- Birthday Party

We all had fun celebrating at our friend Maggie's 2nd birthday party. She had a petting zoo and the girls LOVED the animals. Sydney was fearless and had a blast riding the pony, and Riley giggled and petted all the smaller animals.
