Family Pics - Nov 2012

 Family pictures

Gilly wouldn't smile, but at least she isn't crying like when she saw Santa:)

Santa

 So we had an opportunity to see Santa and Syd said she was finally going to sit on his lap....until we got there and well she just stood by dad and acted all nervous.

Yep another crying picture of Gilly with Santa, maybe next year:)

Florida

 Gilly's first time seeing the ocean, she loved it.  She loved the sound of it, from our room she had to be on the balcony all the time!

Hurricane Sandy had just blown through so there were lots and lots of shells for us to go through.

 Al, Grandma, Syd and Gilly

 Syd wanted to swim, so Al took her out but she got scared, a big wave came and then they just stood out there and looked at the fish:)

 Ice Cream

 Auntie Andrea

Syd (3.5), Gilly (1.5) and Sam (2.5) looking at the Atlantic

Halloween and Pumpkin Carving

 Carving pumpkins - Syd loved it.  Gilly wasn't too sure at first then she had a blast putting all the stuff back in and taking it out:)

 Happy Halloween from our Cowgirl and ladybug

Welcome Home Daddy!

 After 5 long months, Daddy finally come home!  The girls were so excited, we did a countdown chain, like xmas, and when we took that last link off, they were going crazy!

 The sign we made

 Patiently waiting, and looking for planes!

 We surprised him and got through security to meet him at the gate!

Syd ran right up to him and Gilly stood back but then once Al picked her up, well she wouldn't let him put her down.

Back home reading books!!!!
