July
Fourth of July.
The girls met Aubie.
Raye took her first dip in the swimming pool (she did actually like it...she was just starting to get tired by the time we got a photo).
We got family pictures taken.
More trips to the zoo.
Shannon turned 40.
August
The girls got their hair cut in a salon for the first time.
We moved back across the ocean.
We moved into a new apartment.
I started to can some tomatoes (ok, about 40 kilos all together).
September
We went camping with some friends.
We got some cool care packages.
Noel got some weird bite or infection that really stressed me out for a few days.
We got to see some beautiful sunrises from our living room window.
Raye got a hangnail that got infected so spent the better part of the next month with a sock on her hand.
The girls supported Auburn in style every Saturday.
October
Raye started to eat some solids.
We took a bus trip through the mountains to Georgia.
We spent two weeks exploring Tbilisi.
We did some Halloween and fall crafts.
November
It snowed. And snowed again. And snowed again.
We had a fall party and all dressed up.
Shannon took a trip out of town and I used my down time in the evenings to make an Advent calendar.
We bought a waffle iron from someone who had moved and started to have waffles instead of pizza for dinner on family nights.
We put up our Christmas tree on Thanksgiving and ate turkey on Saturday (a bit of a reversal from what people usually do in the States).
December
Christmas crafts and playdoh.
It snowed some more.
Noel turned three.
I baked pumpkin bread and five kinds of cookies and we distributed them to our neighbors.
Christmas!
We had a surprise party for a friend here and did jamberry manicures. I'm not a fan.
And then it was New Year's Eve but it was so foggy I couldn't get any good pictures. And just like that it was 2015.

I really enjoyed your year in review! I've missed so much. And I love your Advent calendar! Sometime you'll have to share what activities you put in it!
