Can't believe it's already December




So much happened last month that I should have posted more often than I usually do. Time is going by so fast. Justin's mom came to visit us, and it was so nice to have her here. Even though there isn't a lot to do in Urbana, we had a great time enjoying each other's company, and I think she had a good time just getting to see where we live and what we do in our everyday lives. The kids were so happy to have her here. Alan wanted to be with her all the time; he would walk in the bathroom when she was doing her hair and sit on the toilet just watching her, at night he would ask her it he could sleep with her. It was really cute seeing how happy he was to have her here. We got to enjoy some nice fall weather and we were able to take the kids to the park to play with the fall leaves right before it got too cold to go out. She's gone now, but we thank her so much for coming to visit us. Hopefully we'll be together again soon.







We put up our Christmas tree really early this year since we are going to Dubai so early in December. Before we put up the ornaments on it Alan decided to decorate it with a bunch of his toys. He put up Legos, balloons, cars and a lot of different things on it. He was really excited about it; here's a little picture of it.



It finally snowed here last week and it was so much fun. We went out and played with the snow for a while. The kids made snow angels, ran on the snow, made snow balls and just had a blast playing with it. Alan was also having a blast trying to ride on Eric's little motorcycle on the snow. His big legs could barely move, but he loved riding on it. Since we were in Dubai the past two winters and it's warm even during the winter, the snow was a new fun thing for them to play with.





We're going to Dubai!!! It's already December. We're leaving in two days, and I still can't believe it. We're so excited to see Justin and finally be together again. When we come back he's coming back with us for almost a month!!! Next time I post something it will be from Dubai. I can't wait!!!
