It's been too long....

I start off every blog post with "It's been so long since I've written..." Well, this time I'm not going to start off that way... OR promise to blog any more frequently. :) But I do want to give the 6 month update!!!

So to recap, we had a CRAZY first 6 months of 2013! Read the recap here. After all of those wonderful events and milestones, we still went strong, but it wasn't so many big events. Just everyday, busy life with 3 kids! Brooke did soccer this fall which kept us busy, busy, busy. She also took violin lessons. Buddy played flag football. Between those 3 things, we were busy every Saturday and almost every night of the week. Throw in church activities, work, little trips here and there, the holidays....and that's a pretty full schedule. FULL=GOOD. I wouldn't change it for anything. I am just so blessed that I get to share all this special, crazy time with my family and watching the little ones grow before my eyes.

Ok...let's start with a recap of the last 5 months. Here are the highlights...

September: Brookey's MVT (Most Valuable Teammate) award for soccer. Their team was called the Lucky Charms, so the prize was a box of Lucky Charms cereal! LOL!

October: Annual trip to the pumpkin patch. It was hot again this year :(

October: Halloween 2013. Where's Waldo, Power Ranger, Cal Cheerleader. Quite the mix :)


November: Thanksgiving and the Annual Family Picture. And yes, Sarah is the crazy one in the family (clearly!!!). More about her in a later post.



November: Perfect day in SF (but of course, the not-so-perfect kid pic!) Thanks, Buddy!



December: Buddy's Preschool Christmas Show


Christmas Eve Mass: That's my baby carrying the cloth to the alter!


Christmas Eve Mass: We didn't take Sarah! Poor baby!


Christmas Morning: I love this picture. I think this is the way I will always see my kids. Even when they are 35, I will always see them exactly how they look in this picture. No fancy clothes or nice backgrounds. Just them. Happy as clams on Christmas morning.


2013 was a great year!!! Can't wait to see what 2014 has in store for the Rooney Party of 5!
