Baby Jackson gifts

Baby Jackson made out well this Christmas!!!

Holiday Spirit

I did get into the hoilday spirit a little bit this season around the house:
I know our tree looks a little bare...I never did find the ornaments this year!!!

Visiting friends at Christmas

At Christmas we were able to share our BIG news- in case you didn't know we are expecting a baby in July- with our friends from MI.
Here I am telling my best friend. She is due in March!

Belated Holiday Pictures- Christmas

My Christmas gift from Kyle was a clock that I wanted from a store in Manchester.Funny story- I had seen this clock in a store window in Manchester so I went in and asked the price. The store owner jokingly said, "You would like that clock since it happens to be $300." I told him that it wasn't in my price range and he assured me that I should come back next week for the 20% off sale. I don't know about you but a $240 clock isn't really in my price range either so I kind of gave up hope. Well, appearently right before Christmas it went on sale again and the store owner actually called Kyle and suggested that he buy it for me for Christmas. Talk about a good salesperson!!

Kolton enjoying his meal- although he made it clear that he DID NOT like the jello!!

This year we hosted Thanksgiving dinner at our house for the first time. It went really well. Thank goodness my mom came early since she did most of the work. Unfortunately, a few family members didn't make it.

Our only trick-or-treaters

Fall Break Fun

Over Fall Break, Mom and I went to Chicago. We saw several newborns including my cousin's and college roomate's new babies. Both are beutiful baby girls and I am so jealous! We also hit IKEA. Below is my big buy. We had many laughs while staying with my grandma's neighbors. I am pretty sure the characters Frank and Marie from Everybody Loves Raymond were based on those two! It was like being on the set! New chair for the office
