Riding out Hurricane Sandy in Philadelphia




 Baby Bennett was a great boy on the trip.
 Our electricity went out over night in Secane, Clifton Heights area and in many other areas of the East Coast.  But after being stuck inside for several days we found an Olive Garden restaurant that was open and we out for lunch.
 Dillon has fun in his Halloween costume. Cutest little dinosaur ever!



 Grandma bought Alexa a cute little purse for the plane ride home. We waited on Stand by but finally made it out and headed for home. We were blessed to get out of Philly when we did. Most of the East coast was shut down and backed up for weeks. Dan and I were the last ones allowed on the plane.

 Alexa and Bennett were good little travelers.

Thanksgiving in Dixie with the Jacksons

















Bennett Thomas Jackson was blessed by his father, Stephen Jackson in the Little Valley II ward on Sunday, November 28, 2012. This took place on Thanksgiving weekend. We were able to have Kim and Ruth Jackson join us for Thanksgiving dinner along with Steve and Danielle and their family. Grandma and Grandpa Datwyler were able to come down after Thanksgiving as well as my sister Jill and family. Bennett was a great little boy for his blessing. We enjoyed cousins and the carousel and lots of good food. Dawson got a nice hair cut from Danielle. They had traveled up from Prescott, AZ.

Happy Birthday Dillon! You are One Year Old!




 Danielle and Alexa were able to come to Philadelphia with us to celebrate Dillon's birthday.






 Dillon prefers an apple over his birthday cake! He takes after his mom and dad! 
Good boy!!
