The Unwin adventures in "our" Fast Lane...

September found my mom and me traveling to St. George to go visit James, Kristin and Annie and to go see Little Mermaid at Tuacahn Amphitheatre. It was incredible and we had a great time!

October found Peter and me celebrating three birthdays! Megan, our oldest granddaughter, became a teenager and her mom became a little bit older. 
October also found Peter and I flying to Pasadena to celebrate our youngest granddaughter, Lucy's first birthday!

Happy 1st Birthday Lucy!



Annie, James and Kristin came to visit and stay with us a few days.  
Luke is awesome!
November came and it was birthday time again and this time for Luke who turned 10! He is such a great help and works as hard as a grown up.

Thursday Thanksgiving fun with Casey, Cindy and Lucy flying up to join all of us.  Black Friday sees us staying home and having the annual Cousin Gingerbread House Decorating Party.


Family, food and lots of fun

While we were being blown away in Utah...Casey braved the San Anna winds and was officially sworn in to the California Bar!! So proud of their hard work.  






Then December 1st and 2nd brought hurricane force winds that left us without power for about 38 hrs. We lost a fence and had to take our big pine tree down but thanks to great neighbors, friends, and family the clean up went very quickly.  Tiffany summed it up best on her blog here

Last weekend found us going on another road trip to St. George.  This time Megan and Ellie came with us so that we could go wish Annie a Happy 2nd Birthday.  We had a great time.  Megan the family's official cake maker and decorator pulled off another of her cute cakes with minimal equipment that made Annie so happy to have a Yo Gabba Gabba Brobee cake.

Road trip fun

How could we not mention the garage door adventures!
Annie loved her Brobee cake!



The birthday girl...the party wore her out!

Well that about catches us up.  We are excited that Christmas is just around the corner but for now, the vacuum is calling my name and I really need to get ready to go to tonight's Last Chance (the Band) Christmas Gig!!
