Our trip to D.C


Our trip to D.C. was really awesome! We saw almost all of the monuments and walked all over the place! Our feet were sore and it was cold but it was a great trip. We went to the National Museum of Natural History,National Air and Space Museum and the National Museum of American History. I bet you cant guess which was our favorite! Air and Space of course! It was a very busy weekend jam packed with stuff to do. There just wasnt enough time to really soak it all in. The city was beautiful and the monuments were amazing. Hope you all enjoy the pictures!

Thanksgiving 2008

Well, this Thanksgiving was our first one we spent all on our own. We missed family a lot over the holiday but we made it through. It was our first and last Thanksgiving with just the two of us because next year we will have our baby boy sharing in the holidays with us! We made ham instead of turkey, we figured we needed to take it one step at a time and to make a full up Thanksgiving meal was too much to handle. Ham is easier than turkey and Jeff loves ham so the decision was made! We had a very good dinner but made too much food! We need to learn how to make smaller postions of food. The day went great and it was nice to just hang out together all day at home. Jeffs schedule doesnt really allow much home time, so we really enjoyed the day!


Cheers! (Yum! sparkling cider)


My very first pies! They turned out pretty good
