Alarcon Family: Another long update ...

An update of the past 6 months! Holy cow have there been some exciting changes in our family!

Ramon wishes he had a motorcycle again! His buddy Chris just got one and he of course had to take it for a ride. And the boys just around the block. They absolutely loved it!

A fun hike at Kennesaw Mountain

We are moving to Savannah!!!! We went down in February for Ramon to interview for the Anesthesiologist Assistant program at South University and 3 days later, they called him with an acceptance! I am so thrilled for him and couldn't be more proud. I am nervous and excited for our little adventure. He starts school in June. We will be down there for at least 12 months and then we are hoping to move back to Canton for his 2nd and final year of schooling since he will be doing an internship and rotations at different hospitals all over, including out of state. It would be nice to be back in this area where our friends/support system is but we will see. You never can tell what Heavenly Father has in store for your future and where He wants you to be. :) But our little weekend in Savannah was fun. We went to Tybee Island, Uncle Bubba's Oyster House which was to die for, and River Street.

Forsyth Park is so beautiful. It's sort of like the "Central Park" of Savannah. The kids loved it.

My boys on the pier! Love this photo.

Some randoms ... bathtime :)

Visiting "The Grinder" monster truck that was in town before the big show. Unfortuately the big show was sold out and we had waited too long to get tickets. Maybe next year ...

My sweet, happy girl! (more pics to follow of this beauty!)

A kitchen floor sleepover? Hey, whatever makes them happy.

Our home for it's last Christmas! Sad :(

Bryn's presents from Santa

Chase's new bike and Wall Tracks set!

Landon's Bat Cave, wooden blocks and other fun stuff.

Santa came!

Due to the fact that we started our gingerbread houses late in the evening, the work suffered a bit and we had to quickly throw them together. Still a blast though.

The annual Santa at the mall visit. They all did great! Bryn kept staring at his beard. I would've too.

Buddy the Elf arrived this year! We had a great time ringing the door bell and letting the boys open the door to find him and his book on the front porch. I sat down with them and read them the book and we had so much fun during the month of December looking to see where Buddy hid every night. This is was also a very helpful tool at keeping the kids well behaved since Buddy was always watching.
