Lots of baking going on.....

Lots of Christmas baking going on around here in the last 2 weeks. Everyone chose a favorite to make:
Kim ~ Molasses Sugar Cookies
Steve ~ Peanut Butter Blossoms
Nate ~ Cookie Dough Truffles
Sarah ~ Sugar Cookies
Natalie ~ she likes them all!
We also made some chocolate fudge and will be making candy popcorn and mini cheesecakes too for Christmas dinner. Luckily we have a little help eating all these goodies! I really enjoy spending time with the kids in the kitchen and hopefully the kids will remember it many years from now!

Merry Christmas 2009!

Knit Afghan

I finally finished it! I started knitting this afghan when I was pregnant with Natalie and I finally finished it up today. It took much longer than I anticipated, but I'm glad I stuck with it!

Thanksgiving 2009

We spent Thanksgiving this year in Michigan with Steve's family. We got to meet baby Chloe for the first time and Nate got to go hunting. We had a great visit with the Slivinskis and Thompsons and enjoyed hanging out at the farm. The boys got to go out hunting and even though no one got anything, they still had fun. Gigi gave all her granddaughters the Christmas bears that she has. They each got to pick one and take it home. Natalie chose the one that plays music!
