Mintz Family Photos 2013

We took these photos back in late October, but I didn't want to post them online until our Christmas cards went out for the year. Now that they have been mailed, here's some of my favorite photos from our photo session:

Wild West Christmas

Rocco's class had a Christmas performance with a Wild West theme (odd choice, I know). Scott and I both thought that a room full of mostly strangers was going to freak Rocco out, but we were pleasantly surprised! He actually LOVED being on stage, was shrieking in joy at times, and did a pretty decent job of singing along with the songs and the rest of his class. We were very proud!

A Christmas Rhyme

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Jingle All The Way,
Oh What Fun It Is To Announce,
A Baby Is On The Way!

Little Pepper Mintz or Spear Mintz is due to arrive May 25, 2014!

Sea World Santa

Scott, Rocco, and I went with Scott's mother and his brother's family to Sea World to enjoy their Christmas themed decor and shows. Rocco especially loved the Sesame Street Christmas show.  However he did NOT love meeting Santa.  Originally we tried to take a photo of just him and Santa but he was having none of it.  Since this Santa does not sit down, there was no way to keep him in the photo without one of us holding him.  Since I had the camera, Scott was the lucky one haha!

So much for "Santa's Helper" ;)

BFFs!

My friend Pooja was in town visiting us from Oct 30 - Nov 3.  We had fun going to a Michael Buble concert, trick-or-treating around my neighborhood, shopping at the mall and outlets, getting mani/pedis, and just having fun chatting and catching up!  I made sure to grab a photo with her before she had to leave to go back to Tallahassee on Sunday, seeing as we don't have any recent photos together which is just a tragedy in my book!
