Christmas came early!


Okay, okay so we know it's early but Brady has been dying to put the christmas tree up and well, so have I. So instead of waiting until next Friday we decided to do it today. Brady had such a good time putting all the ornaments on, Cameron put some on but was more fascinated with the lights and all. My favorite time of the year is HERE!!!

An Early Thanksgiving Dinner

With thanksgiving coming up we decided to have our own Thanksgiving dinner for the daycare kids. Okay so we didn't cook a turkey for them, they had chicken nuggets, but we did make stuffing, mashed potatoes, squash and cranberry sauce. Of course most of the kids didn't really touch the sides and only ate the chicken nuggets but atleast they were exposed to some othe food before Thanksgiving and maybe they'll try it on Thanksgiving. We had fun and so did the kids and that's all that really counts right?

Our New "Breakfast Nook"

I just finished a weekend project - I made a "breakfast nook" by taking out the wall between our kitchen and living room. You can see the before and after pictures below. Note that the original "before" pictures were taken in 2007 when I cut a hole in the wall to add a window. Then I took the window out to take down the whole wall to create the breakfast bar.
