We had a lot of fun with Aaron's family for Thanksgiving. This is the classic olives on the fingers picture.
Aaron's family plays a lot of Rook. It is the family favorite and a game we pull out at every gathering.
We love Grandpa!!
This is our Christmas tree. We put it up last night only to realize that we didn't have enough lights (many strands didn't work.) We laughed pretty hard as we striped out tree with the only two colors we had and left the top bare. The rest will have to wait until we can get to the store.
This is my favorite part of our house. I love the wood burning fire place in our family room. It has been fun to decorate this room, especially since we spend most of our time here.
This is Todd's version of our life. The log home, the one tree in the yard, only a little grass, the family and our dog buddy.
Last night for family home evening we worked on the food for our Christmas goody plates that we are taking out tonight. We made caramel apples and had a lot of fun smothering them in light and milk chocolate and then sprinkling on candy cane and nuts.
We also made caramel nut pull aparts. Yum! It has been hard for me not to eat them all day.
Santa has also come early to our home and I am loving our new car. It is a cross over- 4 wheel drive, seats 8, but is more like a car than an SUV and I LOVE driving it.
He also brought us our bedroom set. My sister is down sizing and gave us a really good deal on her bedroom set and all the extras (I am in love with the dual control electric mattress pad).
