December Highlights

Here are some Decemeber Highlights...


We visited our friend's dad at his firestation. Luke was stoked to sit in the big engine and go for a ride around town in a real firetruck!






Kids sang at church...




I made my own Christmas gifts this year... Aprons. Hair clips. Deco-podge journal. Personalized Stationary. Portuguese Sweet Bread. Magnets.




Rod's best friend from Australia is here for a few weeks, so he stopped by on his way to his girlfriend's place in San Francisco. Those Aussies just love us American girls! Welcome John.



Rod was off work for a week. It's been a treat to have him around and help with the kiddies and nitty griddy, like scrubbing the tub out. We day tripped it to San Francisco or "The Big Smoke" to the Australians. We drove up highway one for the scenic route, pass Pigeon Point Lighthouse...


Jumped on the Bart. The kids were in awe of this speed machine...


Went ice skating in Union Square...


before stopping off at our friends for dinner on our return trip.




Job update:
Ok, still jobless, but I have had a few call backs and interviews lined up... so a little prayer please. My most hopeful one is at Rocking Horse Ranch Preschool. They have outdoor ed with horses and gardening. It's a good fit with what I went to school for... BA teaching/environmental studies. So I'm hanging for a call back. I got an email from the owner on her vacation who said she'd for sure contact me when she gets back... so I wait. The topper would be that they let me bring Luke there, maybe for a discount fee or free.
