The Year of the Breaks

So.......as many of you already know, this is the year of the breaks for the Bock Family. Not only did Emma break her leg in June (cast was on for 8 weeks and no walking) but she now has a broken arm to add to the list! Two days before Thanksgiving, Emma decided to try and jump off a chair while Jacob and I were in the other room. I think the chair toppled while she was trying to jump but I all know is I heard a scream and then Emma came in our room with an arm that was clearly broken. She broke both bones in her forearm (30 degree break!!) and had to have the bones reset just like her leg. Mom, of course, had to leave and Dad took good care of Emma until it was done and I was able to come back and love her!! She is doing so much better than the leg because she can still walk and do a lot of things. I guess we will just have to not let her do pretty much anything in the future to ensure that this does not keep happening! We love our little Emma and she has been such a trooper through the Year of the Breaks!

Five Year Anniversary!

Jacob and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary on Nov. 19th. We decided to keep it simple and went and stayed at the Mission Inn while my WONDERFUL sister and brother-in-law (MB and Nathan) took our girls for the weekend. We loved the Mission Inn and even got upgraded to an awesome room! It was gorgeous but the best part was the shower had TWO shower heads! We stayed up late, slept in, ate some yummy cupcakes, saw the new Harry Potter movie, went shopping and spent the evening at the Santa Monica pier where we had our first date and where Jacob proposed. It was a wonderful and relaxing weekend!!
