Christmas

Almost didn't get to go home, but luckily we got to Chesterton. Thanks, Army.

Got to meet my newest Cousin, Gia, and watch a Bulls game in an awesome skybox.

Blizzard!

We got TWO FEET of snow before Christmas.  That is A LOT for the DC area.

iPhone wrap-up...

Here we go ;)

wrapped 25+ gifts on Sunday.

Broke down yesterday and made a wedding binder... ugh.  

Wedding planning isn't my thing.

Organized my office closet. This is just one side, but it's lookin' good!

Two days after the big snow storm that dumped 24 inches of snow

backyard was a mess

mini 4x4 leather albums came in the mail today!  So cute!  

Already sent them to my clients :)

Marissa made us cookies!!!

Gordon on his way to the vet- he sprained his paw :(  But he's OK now.

Business Christmas cards- over 120 went out!

This guy, a Congressman, ordered 4,500 Christmas cards!

My bookshelf lookin' cleaned up

Sent out 30+ packages in the past week!

Cake!

Our cake tasting was yummy.  I've pretty much hated all the wedding planning so far, so this was a nice treat :)


The bottom layer: white chiffon with buttercream + fresh strawberries
The top layer: chocolate with chocolate mousse filling.

One more thing off our list.  Whew.

SNOW!

The dogs loved the first snow of the year.  It was Maggie's first.

Molly is the cutest! :)

Gordon didn't really want to be out here at first

moving closer to the snow...

OK, not so bad!

Yay Gordon! :)

Some Holiday Cheer

Our decorations.

We don't have a chimney in our new house, so this will have to do- I actually love it :)

Joe picked this up at Cracker Barrel- I love it.

Hey! It's Frankie!  He loves this holiday basket.

The tree.  Those frames are now filled with holiday photos... just don't have a photo of it.

The ornaments

One of Joe's childhood ornaments

Joe really wanted this (at Cracker Barrel) so I gave in :)

One of our shelves

Thanksgiving

We're Back Home!

We got back yesterday from Thanksgiving in Cincinnati.

It was great to spend time with Joe's sister Andi and her family.  And we got to meet our newest niece, Kaityln!

Kylar and baby Kaitlyn!

Uncle Joe and the girls :)

Cute Kylar

Joe and the baby- sooo sweet :)

Yes, I let Kylar use my camera.  Kind of scary, but she loved it.

Me and the baby :)

I like this one Joe took :)

We went to the Air Force Musem- got to see all the retired Air Force One's

Joe was in HEAVEN.  This is the "Sacred Cow."  So cool!
