Merry Christmas!
WOW! Another year has gone by, and not without TONS to be thankful for! Hayden turned two this October and he really enjoyed blowing out the candles on his cake! We practiced blowing out candles nightly for about two weeks!
We enjoy him so much, and can’t even imagine life without him! He is a true joy. His personality is really shinning through now! He is so much like his dad, yet so much like me. We are still very blessed that Vanilla Grandma Lee Ann and Poppa Rusty care for him 3x a week! How lucky are we?!
We have lots to “report” for 2009….so here goes:
The day after Christmas (last year) my dad (Pat) got married! He and his new wife Joann are going to be celebrating their 1st anniversary in a few weeks! CONGRATS again!
We had the pleasure of traveling to Texas twice this year! Once for our best buddies wedding in May (Congrats Dave and Elena Crkvenac) which was is San Antonio and again in October (Dallas) for my mom’s great friend’s wedding (Congrats Rose and Tom)….Andy actually introduced Rose and Tom to one another a few years back on one of the trips to Dallas to visit my parents! My parents came down to San Antonio to watch Hayden while Andy and I went to the wedding…..my granny Jo (Donny’s mom) and my aunt Barb both live in S.A. so it worked out beautifully and we even got to connect with a lot of the Shea family one night for dinner!
My mother in law and I experienced the musical Wicked in early February and we liked it so much we returned again November for an encore! I love that show….of course being a huge Wizard of Oz fan as a child it is expected J
We have continued to make visiting zoo’s a hobby! This year we were able to see San Antonio Zoo, Dallas Zoo, San Francisco Zoo, Sacramento Zoo and our all time favorite…Oakland Zoo (Hayden is a regular at the Oakland Zoo!). We pick up an iron on patch at each zoo…and we have a descent collection so far. Eventually we will figure out what to do with them! Ideas?
My mom and dad (Donny) celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary this October! They celebrated with an amazing trip to Italy and Austria! Yes, we are totally jealous!
Andy and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary this October! We enjoyed a great date night and later in the month we had professional family pictures taken back at the Carmel Mission, where we tied the knot! Yes that is where this pic was taken!
I have taken on the board position of Advertising for a local club here in Livermore called Livermore Moms! I enjoy everything the club offers but I have also met some great new friends! Andy continues to be an avid 49er fan and he also continues to dominate in both of his fantasy leagues! I see that trophy making its way back to our mantel again!
Life is great, we are excited to see what the future holds and look forward to ringing in 2010!
We wish you each a joyous Christmas and a very happy and healthy New Year!
Love,
THE DRUBA’S
Heather, Andrew, Hayden…..Rhodie and Mikki Too!
