Christmas Cards

After many attempts of getting a Christmas Card Picture we ended up with these two finalist.
We ended up choosing the one with Domino! We pick them up today, and hopefully they will be in the mail by the end of the week!

Thanksgiving Part #2

After shopping on Black Friday we headed home and pulled out our Christmas decorations! Since Russ really wanted to buy a fake tree last year, I gave in and told him as long as I can take advantage of it (putting it up the day after Thanksgiving and taking it down New Years Day.) Now our house is all ready for Christmas! Even Domino likes the tree!

Don't mind the rug, I don't like it there but we made a fire and had to put something in front of it.

My fake tree skirt, since I cant find one I like

Our second Thanksgiving was on Sunday at my Dad's house. We had yummy prime rib, yorkshire pudding, twice baked potatoes, ceasar salad, and green bean casserole! We also had toasted raviolis for appetizers! We were all stuffed!

Now that Thanksgiving is over are getting ready for our multiple Christmas celebrations! I can't believe it but our schedules are booked through the first of the year! (Well we are out of town for 2 weeks.)

Thanksgiving Part 1

We had 2 Thanksgivings; one on Thanksgiving with Mom, Jeff, Stephanie & her boyfriend Evan, then another one on Sunday with Dad, Shu-Jen, Steph and Evan.

Thanksgiving #1 we had: Turkey, Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes, Green Beans, Cranberry Sauce, Sweet Potatoes, and rolls. For dessert we had Pecan Pie and Tunnel of Fudge Pumpkin Cake!

We spent the night, so I could wake up at 6am and go shopping with Mom, Steph, Evan and Falynn. We hit Penny's first, not much of a crowd there. Next stop was Macy's where we ended up standing in line for an hour!! We made a few more stops and were home around 12:30.

Heres a few pics!
