Christmas Tree Fun...


So we got our Christmas tree tonight... So it's really starting to feel like Christmas!!! I have to say it's VERY entertaining to watch my tiny little pup ATTACK the tree. I have a feeling I'll have an ulcer wondering if the tree is standing up when I get home from work!!!! And I have to hand it to Brad for being the disciplinarian. I just laugh at poor little Gix and get lectured by Bradden to be stricter. I just feel so bad for Gix he's so confused with all this Christmas stuff!!

Of course I needed video of this, just so you all can enjoy it!

Holidays are upon Us

Hello All!!!

Sorry it's been so long since my last post... just been pretty busy around these parts. So let's see... we had Thanksgiving here and I cooked my FIRST turkey and huge dinner which I must add was a HUGE success!! The guys (Brad, Ryan, Michael and Dan) were speechless we had a 20 pound turkey, tons of mashed potatoes, green beans w/ almonds, STUFFING, and candied yams. It was quite delicious and Gix got to have some yummy potatoes & Turkey w/ gravy. No pics of the dinner cause Dan has those real pix... but it was fun and festive! We do have one of Gix waiting for the turkey which he did ALL day.
My brother was in town, and we went off-roading with Michael and the "FJ UN-Club" which was fun and entertaining! Ryan had never been off-roading so it was something different thats for sure.
Whit & I have started our holiday festivities so that has helped with wanting to be home for the holidays. I have been torturing brad with Christmas movies, music and what not. We even bought Gix a stocking haha. Whit & I decided to make some Christmas cookies on our Girls Night Thursday. ANNNNND we went out with Brad for the Festival of Trees... which didn't have quite the participation as we thought it would but it was enough to start up our Christmas Spirit. We then went out for coffee and found a HUUUUUUGE tree to take pictures with. It's definately weird to have NO snow and to be walking around in flipflops and sweatshirt at night and tee-shirts during the day. Snow would make it feel more "Christmasy" but we're VERY content with the warmth ....
We miss & Love you all and more updates to come!!!
