Pre-Christmas Christmas

Two people very near and dear to our hearts came to visit just before Christmas.  Brad's brother Eric and his wife Jenn were the first to come for a visit in the new house.  We busily got things ready in the house (as you can see from the previous post) and were ready for a much needed break upon their arrival. 

No crazy plans this trip, just a little Christmas shopping and seeing some Christmas lights.  The rest of the time was planned to relax and spend time with one another. 

Brad and Eric got a little "man" time in by going to see Tron together while Jenn and I recovered my dining room chairs.  Eric also helped Brad with some updating of our computer.  And the kids got tons of playtime with both Uncle Eric and Aunt Jenn!

There are so many pictures to show I decided to do a slide show instead.  Enjoy!




Thank you Uncle Eric and Aunt Jenn for visiting, our gag gifts, the kids gifts and for our new Camcorder! We LOVE you bunches and cannot wait for our turn to fly out to Denver again and see your new little munchkin when she makes her arrival :).

Peacock Lane

We took a trip to a local Christmas Landmark- Peacock Lane.  It is in Portland.  Every house on the lane decorates with Christmas lights.  Several do amazing things! I had not been since I was younger.  I had wanted to take the kids in the past couple years, but we just did not make it. We had a clear, dry night and took advantage. :)

Moved & Ready for Visitors!!!

Image
We are officially moved people!!!! After a month and a half of constant work in getting the place ready, we have made the journey and came out in one piece for the most part.  We have gotten things unpacked and put in their respective places.  And been finishing up some details in several rooms.  We have some smaller projects left, but the majority of the work is done and the house looks great!  We now have it decorated for Christmas and ready for Santa to make his stop. Brylee would like to give you a tour! Enjoy the pictures: The front of the house: The side view of the front yard: A view into the backyard: The front porch: The Sunroom: The Kitchen (a little dark), but the paint looks awesome! The One and Only Bathroom: The Spare Bedroom (technically the master on the main floor, but the closet is so tiny we chose another room): The Dining room: The Living Room: The Stairway/Hallway upstairs: Sitting area at the top of the stairs: Our Master Bedroom: Bryle...

Per my mom's request I am posting some pictures of me when I was young and some pictures of Brylee.  My mom was recently going through some old photos and gave me these.  She said that she could not believe the similarities as she was looking at the pictures.  So Mom here you go!
