O Christmas Tree

We didn't get the ornaments on until last night. I love taking all of them out and remembering how it is we got each of them. I especially love all of my doggie ornaments!

Tree Hunting 2009

We made our annual trek to Sprouffske's Tree Farm on Sunday, braving the bitter cold. Troy joined us for the first time purchasing a tree for himself and his parents.

Jason enjoyed playing the lumberjack as usual.

We picked out a 9 foot Douglas Fir.

Tom, Stacie, Tyler and Remi found a tree much closer to the truck than us.

I had to take a picture of the truck weighed down with our FOUR trees. It's great to have fun traditions with our friends!

The Dog Whisperer

On Friday night, we turned on The Dog Whisperer. Roscoe sat and watched it with us. Not just a glance, he sat there just like in the picture and watched the show. It was hilarious!

Merry Christmas to me!

I have been wanting to upgrade to the larger 6 quart KitchenAid mixer for quite some time. I found a deal too good to pass up on Amazon.com on Black Friday. So I bought it, can't wait to start my holiday baking with it! Isn't it pretty?

Boogieman Part 2

If you do not remember, Roscoe became obsessed with our computer room closet during our remodel earlier this year. He was so obsessed that every time he came into the house, he had to run upstairs and check that closet. On Sunday when I was pulling out decoration, he kept going into the closet under the stairs. I don't know if it was the closet or the mirror inside of it where he could see himself. In any event, I think he may have been on another quest to find the Boogieman.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had Thanksgiving at our house yesterday. Roscoe assumed his normal post under the table as soon as he could. At one point he was trapped under there by chair being pushed in but managed to get out to get some bites of turkey.

The turkey turned out great. It was actually done a half hour early! I couldn't believe it actually got done early!

I was happy that dinner turned out well. Carrie held Addison while Jenn ate. Addison is getting so big.

Allyson REALLY enjoyed the chocolate pie.

Alexa really enjoyed the Cool Whip, so much so that she grabbed a handful of it!

Clam Digging

Jason headed over to Westport yesterday to go clam digging with a group of his co-workers. I wanted to go but had other commitments. He took Roscoe with him to work on his training. As you can see, like father like son, both are wearing camo! Jason and everyone in his group (almost 30 people!) limited out.
