Taking a Walk

Justin, Jacob and I took a walk together last week. These are the views we are so lucky to see on a daily basis. This is the pond that our house borders.

Justin Makes Brownies!!!!!

While Justin was out on Thanksgiving break, he made us some brownies!!! MMMM!! They were delicious!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

We had a lovely dinner with John's parents for Thanksgiving. It was nice and simple and all in all I think it all came out yummy!

Here is Jacob reading his card from Gram-Gram

I used the wine "carafe" because it reminded me of the family holiday dinners we used to have in the past with Nana and Grandpa way back when...

Linda made a yummy shrimp cocktail for us!

Here's Jacob all seated ready to eat some turkey! He had turkey and potatoes and loved them!

Turkey Coma....The perfect end to a wonderful day!

Kitchen Counters!!!!

Here is the island with the sink!

Here are some shots of the counters and the cabinets! You can see our sink in front of the window.

Doors!!!!

This is a shot of the door leading to Jacob's bedroom. The linen closet is the door on the left and the doorway on the right is to Justin's room.


Closet doors!

Here are our garage doors. We were planning on painting them the red color of the trim, but as of yet we don't think we will. If we decide to we were advised to wait until summer, so we have until then to change our minds!

Here is our microwave! It is a combo microwave/convection/hood so John had to get it in before the tile guys come to put the tile in! The kitchen counters were put in yesterday, but I haven't had a chance to go over and see! That will be coming soon!

Jacob and his Toys

Jacob, as always, was having a blast with his gym yesterday. He's figured out how to get to those toys...once and for all!!!!!

Flip it over!!!

My Mom tagged me. In the spirit of friendship I am playing and tagging others.

Here are the offical rules:
** Link to the person who tagged you.
** Post the rules on your blog.** Write 6 random things about yourself.
** Tag 6-ish people at the end of your post.
** Let each person know he/she has been tagged.
** Let the tagger know when your entry is up. *

1. I often speak before I think. My specialty is muttering something under my breath, not knowing the person can actually hear me!

2. I love to cook, but often find myself in a rut of cooking the same things.

3. I am trying to plan a cross country trip to see my Great Aunt Ginny in Maine.

4. I wish my grandparents were here to have met my husband and kids.

5. I think I want to get a wiener dog one of these days.

6. I NEED to go to Disneyland!!!!
