First up, was Mila's third birthday party at "Pump it Up!" You can't go wrong with a dozen preschoolers in a building full of jumpy houses. The next weekend, it was Li'l Tommy's first birthday party on the 46th floor of the Hilton Union Square. We all enjoyed great views, great food, and great music. TJ was a little dance machine... he didn't want the party to end. The next day, it was a gymnastics party for Aria. Again, the kiddos had a blast, and TJ even got a Batman mask painted on his face!
TJ's basketball team, the Hoopster Tots, had a special night at one of USF's Men's Basketball games. The kiddos got a chance to hang out during warmup, then watch the game and get special autographed posters. TJ and Baby Frankie had so much fun! It ended up being mustache night at the game, and we were all part of setting the world record for the most people wearing a fake mustache at once! Of course, it made for some great family pictures.
It's a San Francisco tradition to light the Embarcadero Center buildings every year, and this year, we decided to head down to the holiday ice rink and watch the ceremony. There was a special Disney on Ice performance planned, so TJ was excited to see that. He was so excited... he fell asleep before it even started!!! Baby Frankie stayed awake for the lighting the fireworks that followed, even though big brother was passed out in the stroller!
Since Mommy had to work on Thanksgiving, and our plans to host some family at our house fell, through, we were lucky enough to have Thanksgiving with Michelle and her family. Baby Frankie had a wonderful first Thanksgiving. He ate some turkey, mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie, and the little munchkin loved it all! (Of course.) TJ had a great time playing with Gi, and we all enjoyed eating and visiting with our fellow Coloradans! We are very thankful to have such good friends to share special times with here in the Bay Area.
That weekend, TJ picked out our Christmas tree. Once again, he chose a small one because he was worried the tree wouldn't fit in our house. The boys helped decorate the tree, and it's the perfect tree for Frankie first Christmas!
During the holiday weekend, the San Francisco Zoo finally opened its renovated park. TJ has been waiting a year to play on the playground, and it was worth it! From a jungle, to the Antarctic, this playground has everything! While we were walking into the zoo, we ran into Natayla, Sasha, Julia and Denis, so we had a great time playing and visiting with them.
This past weekend was full of Holiday fun. TJ & Mommy had a date night at the movies and watched "Frozen." It was such a cute movie, and we enjoyed some much-needed time together. Saturday night, the entire family took a cable car holiday lights tour through the city. We were a little worried Baby Frankie would make it through since the tour started after his bedtime, but that little monster wouldn't let a good time pass him by. He stayed awake for the entire 80 minute tour, and we all loved seeing all the holiday lights in the city. We even make a special stop at the Fairmont Hotel and saw the world's largest Gingerbread House!
TJ is counting down the days to Grandma & Grandpa's house. We can't wait for Friday to get here so we can spend Christmas in Colorado!
