Holiday Newsletter- a Larson check-in

It's that time of the year, everyday I get to come home and open up all the super cute holiday cards.   Once again, this year, I have failed or will fail to send out cards to our family and friends.  However, for all of you that follow this awesome blog, this is my holiday card to you.  Big bonus!  You don't have to post it on your fridge for a month.

I know its been a while since my last posting.  I have a few note-worthy updates to report to all of you.
Travel- we got some good intel that we most likely will be traveling in the month of February!  One month sooner than what I was anticipating.  We should hear just after the first of the year that his paperwork is moving.  Just to hear that news....I might have a heart attack with excitement. 
OMG.  February.  Two months away, February.  The month right after January.  It's getting so close and really so hard to believe.   We are close to being ready for Nash to come home.  His room is all set (I'll make that another post) and his closet is fully stocked.  Ok, so the closet has been fully stocked for a while now but my bestie had an awesome shower for me to fill up the remaining necessities.

So to celebrate our last few months as a family of two I coerced convinced the hubby to go on a baby-moon.  We just got back this week from a long weekend in San Diego.  We had an awesome time (see below).  The highlights included surf lessons (yes we both were able to stand for moments!), the world famous zoo, dinning on authentic Mexican cuisine, and acting like tourists.  

Like the only pic. we got of the two of us together.



Pretty sure I would own one of these if I lived here. 




Dang, that water is cold!  (Wimp)



Toured the SS Midway.  Support Our Troops!

Go ahead, say it, "soooooo cute!"

An elephant getting a pedicure!  No joke, they take very good care of the elephants feet to prevent diseases.  The elephant didn't seem to mind at all, he got lots of treats while standing there.

Ok, you're right.  The water is super cold!
