Tree Trimming!

We put up our Christmas tree on Saturday. It was a nice evening as a family and our first time in the new house. Now we can make some Christmas memories and the house will really feel like home.

We had to get creative to get the ornaments at the top of the tree.

"And the stockings were hung by the chimney with care. . ."!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

I had a GREAT time with 3 super fun sisters-in-law, a super sweet mother-in-law and a super cute niece the past 5 days! We all met in Oklahoma where Brett's sister, Debbie, lives. Then we got in the car for a road trip to Branson! My pictures turned out dark so I'm bummed about that, but these ones weren't too bad. Here's a quick look at some of our trip.

Here we are at Silver Dollar City. This was a really cute place with lots of shops and some roller coasters. It was pretty cold so we only hit a couple of roller coasters, but loved going through the shops, drinking wassail/hot chocolate, seeing one of the most amazing Christmas lights display (over 4.5 million lights) and eating the BEST kettle corn!

This is Brigit (sis-in-law), Jessica (niece) and me on the Branson Belle--a really big show boat where we ate a yummy dinner and saw a show. The show was great and the ventriloquist made me laugh so hard I cried!

A picture of the outside of the boat before going aboard.

Me, Jessica, Katie (sis-in-law) and Bev (mother-in-law) at the Andy Williams Christmas Show. We had such a fun time and are already talking about next year. Thanks girls for a SUPER time! wink! wink!

Fun Quiz

I'm an Audi TT!

You're not the fastest, nor the most nimble, but you're cute and you have style. You're not intensely competitive, but when you pass by, everyone turns to look.

Take the Which Sports Car Are You? quiz.
