So back in October, we had your first Halloween. We all dressed up and took you to a nearby pumpkin patch, since you were too little to trick-or-treat. Malia dressed up as a nurse, daddy as a Jedi Knight, you as a pumpkin and mommy as the pumpkin vine that nourishes the pumpkin. Here are some pictures.<\/p>\n

Actually, we did get one trick-or-treat in while walking to the pumpkin patch. A couple that were standing outside their apartment building were giving out candy to people. The guy thought that you were an absolutely adorable “carrot.”<\/p>\n

“Oh what a cute carrot!” the man said, handing you a lollipop. Mommy and daddy did not want the guy to feel stupid so we said, “Yeah! Isn’t she?”<\/p>\n

So November flew by really quick and before we knew it, Thanksgiving! We flew up to Sacramento to meet up with your Auntie Mary, Uncle Ron and family. Your first plane ride on Southwest Airlines. It was cool, because with you, we got to go on board the plane first, along with handicapped people. So we arrived in Sac-town. G-pa Roger arrived a little after us and you finally got to meet the person who we named you after, G-ma Betty, aka Elizabeth. She was so excited to meet you. Hopefully she’ll read this and leave a comment to you. She’s a very intelligent and strong woman whom your mommy and I admire and love very much. When you met her, you were all smiles. The two of you got along so well right off the bat! It was like you knew that you were named after her.<\/p>\n

It was all food and smiles. We were extremely thankful to Uncle Ron and Auntie Mary for having us over every year for Thanksgiving. We are lucky to have such wonderful family and we are thankful for all the wonderful food that your mommy, Auntie Mary, G-ma Betty and Malia prepared.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
