Well hello! We've sure started the month out with a BANG! Saturday Ryan and I journeyed to Idaho for our Second Annual Christmas Tree Harvest with Heath, Sheila, and the kids. We had a great time searching for the "perfect" tree, cutting it down, and hauling it out. Ryan particularly enjoyed the impromptu duck hunting on the way home. The only bummer was that we got home late and didn't feel like putting the tree up so it's currently sitting in my parents' backyard along with theirs.
Sunday we went to church, Ryan gave a great lesson on the end chapters of Mormon, then we came home and set to work getting dinner ready. We played host to Jaden and Kira--Allan and Kristie have abandoned them for a 9-day excursion to Disneyland. We made roast, Yorkshire pudding, green beans, and jello for dinner with homemade donuts and hot chocolate for Sunday cinema. We're pretty proud of the way dinner turned out. We even made gravy for the roast and pudding! Good thing I watched my mom make gravy all those years!! Thanks mom!I'm bummed we didn't get any pictures of the dinner though....I was a little busy! Haha! It was fun to have Jaden and Kira over. They seemed to enjoy the dinner. I hope they had a good time. Sometimes you can't tell with teenagers. Believe me, I know. I teach them! :) So that was our weekend--busy, busy, busy. And it doesn't look like the rest of the month will be any different. How exciting!!
P.S. One more week and we'll be celebrating our FIRST anniversary! Happy Anniversary babe!!!!
