Air Autumn

Autumn got a new basketball hoop for Christmas. It's a good thing since she'll be 6'3" and playing for Geno A. at UCONN in a few years.

Santa visited

Santa stopped by last night. He liked Autumn's cookies and Rudolph liked the carrot.

Autumn's Christmas Eve beach party

Autumn decided to lay down in the "sandbox" and have a beach party under her umbrella with her friends.

ATI Christmas Party

Chris' Christmas work party was at the Tanque Verde guest ranch again! It's fun because it's so new to Autumn every year. Here a few pictures of her enjoying the party and her new friend Brian. They were born on the same day about 30 minutes apart...Autumn is the younger one.

Autumn loves big kids.
Petting the horses.

Autumn's first horse ride.

This horse had one blue and one brown eye.

Chris and Autumn. My pics are a little fuzzy because I didn't realize I had the auto flash off!

Mom and Autumn.

Looks like Autumn is choking him but that's just how she gives hugs.

Playing hide and seek

They are holding hands!

They were hiding from me...

I can't believe they are the same age...Autumn definitely didn't get the short asian gene!

Bye Mastins!!

Greg got a job in Scottsdale, so that means the Mastins are no longer Tucsonians! It is bittersweet...but mostly bitter for us. Autumn and I are going to miss our buddies! Here are some pictures from the last week.

Some random cowboy at the zoo!
They had an otter demonstration so we could see them in action

Maddy of course had to go investigate the cop bike!

Clare shopping, ready to walk!

Maddy that is not where babies go.

The girls on the big screen.

Our little vets. I think they're going to make it...

For old time's sake. We'll have to re-make these pictures in like 16 years.

They'll hold Chris' hands but not ours of course. Also Maddy said she liked Chris more than me...not sure how I'm supposed to feel about that.

Clare Clare trying to get in on the action.

So cheesy.

Candy Canes!

Hanging out in their fort.

We'll miss you guys!! Good thing we go to Phoenix all the time!!

Trolley Ride

Yesterday we took Autumn to the street fair. It was such a nice day out! We parked on University and took the trolley to 4th.

Pointing at all the suckers walking.

New Domschke Cub

So I had my ultrasound appointment today and everything is looking good! The baby seems to be symmetrical and his heart has a good beat!

Here you go...little baby butt cheeks and I think we all know what the arrow is pointing to.
Here's a picture of the babe head on...looks like skeletor right now!

Little tiny baby feet.

And of course the side profile shot. I think I see chunky little cheeks in there already.

Thanksgiving

We went up to Phoenix for a little Thanksgiving dinner with all the Domschkes! It was a lot of good food! A little Guitar Hero action
Autumn singing Freebird.

Hanging with the Aunt and Uncle

Big kid table

Autumn gives the Costco pumpkin pie a thumbs up!

Crazy pumpkin eyes

Yard work part two

So we finished up the grass portion of our yard on Sunday. We actually came up a little short on sod...but Lowes had the exact grass we needed from the same supplier! PHEW!

Digging trenches....this is only the beginning.
Tucson has ridiculously hard ground

More irrigation stuff....

Ahhh flat....

And the sprinklers work!

Starting to lay out sod...which was super heavy...

Autumn excited about her grass.

Autumn with her "pumpkin medals" and an exhausted dad.

You can sort of see where the patio is going to go.

Hooray!

Moosen's corner....we'll be putting a dog house there soon.

Moose playing around

The borders on the left will be where our little fire pit will go.

More of Moosen playing with Autumn
