Christmas 2010

 

New Baby Announcement!

 

Festive weekend

This weekend we had a blast doing Christmas-y things in the Valley. Saturday night we went to Chipotle for dinner. It was Andrew's first visit and he devoured his Quesadilla! Next we got hot chocolates and headed to Cathedral City to see Candy Cane Lane. This is a street that is all decked out with lights, way more than the average neighborhood. We parked and walked Andrew down the street and he LOVED it! The lights were gorgeous and it was so fun to do as a family.

Sunday night we drove out to Riverside to go to the Mission Inn with our friends the Anderson's. It is an old Inn and the pictures just don't do it justice. The lights are amazing! Andrew loved getting a ride in his stroller and taking in all the sites. At some points he seemed more interested in his Cheerios but he loved it.

Afterwards we went to one of our all time favorites for dinner. The Spaghetti Factory. We actually had our rehearsal dinner there almost exactly seven years ago! Andrew loved it and even ate some spumoni! It was a late night but totally worth it and put us even more into the Christmas spirit. Holidays really are so much more fun when you have a baby to celebrate it with!

Christmas is always special because Corey and I started dating around Christmas so its always been more festive and exciting to be able to share it with Corey. And if it is possible Andrew makes it grow even more festive if that is possible!

Christmas on the Prado

This weekend we got to do one of our favorite Christmas Traditions that we hadnt done since Corey and I were engaged. We went down to Balboa Park to see Christmas on the Prado. Basically they decorate the whole park with lights, have carolers all over and the park is very festive and a blast.

They have different foods from around the world. My favorite stop was Italy and had a gourmet hot chocolate and a pizza. We had a blast and Little man absolutely loved it!
