Great Grand-Mama and Great Grand-Daddy Pollock

We spent a few days over Christmas with Jay's Great Grandparents. This was a special trip because it was the first time they had met Jay. Marian, Eric and the girls met us up there for a little special time. It was great to finally have all three grandchildren together!!!!
Here are some cute photos.





I was so excited Stella was going to be there. I wanted to make a ginger bread house so badly. She gave me the excuse to be a little kid again!





We really had a great visit. We miss you already!!!!!

Washington D.C. Dec. 19-22

We decided to kick Christmas off a little early this year, and took a trip to Washington D.C. I have never been. We had a great time. Jay loved having his Daddy to himself for a few days. Some highlights were, Jay climbing the steps to the Lincoln Memorial, the Holocaust Museum, and the Museum of Natural History. We will definitely need to go back, we didn't get to see that much.







My goal is to hit all 50 states before I die. Arendall planned the trip so we could spend the night in Delaware before driving to N.C. We stayed in a quiet little beach town. So we hit Maryland, Virginia, D.C., and Delaware all in one trip.

Jay's Visit with Santa

For the past week I have been trying to hype up Santa with Jay. I have even been showing him an Elmo movie with Santa in it. Well, it didn't work. Here are the 2 pictures we got. He cried so hard, he even had tears. We are going to try again on Friday at Disneyland with Taner.


Any suggestions on how to get the perfect picture with Santa, remember he is only 16 months

Play Date With All The Babies

On Thursday, Brittany drove to my mom's house with Cailey. It was so fun to have all the babies together!

Since Jay will not be home for Christmas, he and Cailey exchanged gifts early. He got an Elmo book and Elmo flashlight. All the kids LOVED the flashlight. (Jay won't put it down)

Merry Christmas early!!!

Saying Good-bye is so hard to do.

Mommy's Friend Alison and her family have decided to re-locate in Arizona. We are going to miss them so much. Jay and Violette had their last lunch date :(
Here are some cute pictures.

Miss Violette




Look at how messy Jay got. But, mommy was smart and brought him an extra shirt.



We wish the Neilson's luck,love and happiness. Come see us soon!!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!! (a little late)

This year we went to visit Jay's Grandpa and GG for Thanksgiving in Tennessee. We took a red-eye flight there which was nice because Jay slept the whole way! He actually is a good traveler. That was the 3rd time he has flown cross-country and he has done great everytime. Thank goodness for Uncle Brad's portable DVD player, and the lovely person who is Elmo for a living! We love both of you!
Here is a picture of my Dad and Step-Mom's house in Tennessee. This if from there living room!!

If you notice in the middle, Jay had his own glass of sparkling cider for our toast. We all went around the table and said what we are thankful for. We all agreed, family was #1.

Here's Dad carvin' away!!!

Daddy and Jay were so tired from traveling, and hungry too!

Jay was the fifth generation to eat a Thanksgiving meal on that same table. Pretty cool!

(sorry the picture is sideways)

This is where George spent Thanksgiving dinner, very THANKFUL Jay was there!!!

The next day Grandpa couldn't wait to take Jay to the Pro Bass Shop to see the huge aquariam inside. They watched the fish together for awhile.

We will post some more pictures as soon as we get them. We hope everyone had a great Day!!!
