Here's our Christmas tree this year. It looks so much better than it did last year! It was so bare, seriously Charlie Brown style. But that's how it is when your newlyweds and one of you is a student. It still needs an angel for the top but I haven't found the right one yet.

I love Christmas time! We have had lots of beautiful snow this year that really puts me in a holiday mood.

Thanksgiving Weekend

Gavin and I spent Thanksgiving with his family this year. We had so much fun eating, playing games and watching football (yes, I said I had fun watching football). It was fun to spend time with our new niece. She is such a pretty baby! Here's some pictures from the fun weekend.

I'm curled up, ready for a nap. This might have been pre-feast. All the anticipation tuckered me out.
Gavin with Jarah. Sorry about that camera flash Jarah!

So we had a little trouble getting everyone in the picture at the table, so this is the whole group...in two installments. Gavin is getting a nice camera for Christmas so this won't happen again. :)
Take 2, with Tobin and Whitney this time.

I love this last picture of Lauren holding Jarah, it's so sweet and beautiful. Being an aunt is so much fun.
