Holiday celebration at the Del

The Hotel del Coronado here lights up their hotel every year and it's one of my favorite things to go to. This year they had a celebration we went to that had the outdoor ice skating rink (which we didn't do) games and fireworks. Ana loved the fireworks!

Thanksgiving 2010

Happy late Thanksgiving! This year I cooked a full meal again and we had some friends over to share the meal. Our friend Derina's dad was visiting from Ireland and this was his first taste of this American holiday. It was also Ana's first Thanksgiving where she could actually eat the meal (and the leftovers).























Also this weekend we went up to the town of Julian, CA (a small, old mining town in the mountains east of San Diego) to enjoy their famous apple pie. It also happened to be their tree lighting ceremony, but we bailed because it was tooooooo cold to wait. Later we put up our tree, Ana was a very good helper.

Halloween 2010

Happy Halloween everyone! We had a great day, carved some pumpkins and took Ana out for her first trick or treating. Ana was a fairy this year and we went and visited about four houses down our street. She didn’t really know what was going on but liked carrying around candy and seeing the people.

Pumpkin Patch 2010

We went to the pumpkin patch today. We found a pretty good one, pick your own pumpkins, goats you can pet, hayride and corn maze. Got some good pumpkins too. Ana liked it ok, she mostly wanted to be around all the other kids and pet people’s dogs. She didn’t really want to touch the pumpkins, she weaved in and out of the rows without touching them.
