The Holidays Came and Went....

Thanksgiving:

So Thanksgiving was great. The Killebrew's decided to better accommodate more people we held our big Thanksgiving dinner on Friday. So Todd and I decided to make our own first big Thanksgiving dinner. We made it all... and when I say we I really mean Todd... I helped a little, a big fat turkey, all the sides and Todd's amazing home made pumpkin pie. After the dinner we went straight into decorating for Thanksgiving. Yup we were the first on the block. Or probably even the state. What was really weird was the weather hasn't realized it's fall yet and all of our roses were still full in bloom. So to see the contrast between the lights on the house and all the roses it was pretty neat. That only lasted a week then the weather clued in and it was time to trim things up.


Daddy had a little helper in the kitchen!


Christmas:

Christmas was great. Todd had the idea that we should do all homemade gift and I have to say even thought I gripped and complained about it ALOT it really was great. Todd made me a quilt ladder which I was really excited about. And I made Todd plush angry birds. Zac made daddy a tee shirt which they both enjoy. 

I think the hit was the rocking horse Zac got from mom and dad. Daddy made it and Mommy painted it. Zac LOVED opening all his present. He even got a little upset when I would open presents cause he needed to help me with min too.


The small one turned out better... it's all in the eyes.
