The HOLIDAYS!!!

Okay, where do I begin?

Thanksgiving:
We didn't get the chance to go back home for Thanksgiving because of the wonderful Iowa weather. So, Brandon and I decided to experiment with Thanksgiving dinner. We made a 13 pound turkey for the two of us. We thought if we can't make it back we wern't going to miss out on all the great food. We made all of the fixings for dinner aswell. I have to say I was pretty proud of us we only had to call home once to make surewe were making something right. :) The dinner turned out wonderful! So, we had our first Thanksgiving dinner in our new home. We did miss seeing all of our family though. :( At least we have eachother.




           Christmas:
                   Now Christmas hasn't arrived just yet but, our tree is up and the feeling of Christmas is in full swing. We have our tree up and have a few Christmas parties to go to. Super excited for that! All I asked for for Christmas was a dryer and to have my dishwasher hooked-up and ready to go. My amazing husband has given me both of those requests. :) I am super lucky to have him!
                   We are looking forward to going home to see all of our family! Can't wait to be on Christmas break either. :)


That's all for now.. more to come later.
          ps. house pictures will be coming once we get all settled in. :)
