I’ve always thought that I would start blogging when we have fun news and pictures about our kids, but I’ve decided that since kids are still quite a while away I will give it a try a little early. Who has time to blog when they have kids anyway?!
Chris and I had a great Thanksgiving with my family last week. We saw lots of family and ate lots of good food. Thanksgiving dinner is my favorite meal of the year. Every year it’s the same and full of family specialties. My favorite is Grandmother’s creamed corn, which I have unsuccessfully been trying to replicate for years. We also got to meet our new niece, Leighton Beck. My cousin Sally and her husband (also a Chris) had this precious little girl on November 17. We are so thankful that everyone is healthy and happy!
Over the weekend, Chris and I took a brief trip to the mountains to cut down a Christmas tree. We spent yesterday decorating our apartment and tree for Christmas. Since Miley spent the last few days at Pupsi (doggy camp while we were out of town), she spent the day sleeping on the couch.
