Our best colors...

I wrapped Duke in the bow I got off of our present at Jason's work party. I think blue is a good color on him.

A hunting we will go.....

Jason and Duke went hunting on the 20th. As you can see, they had a great time. This was Duke's first time retrieving a goose. Jason said that Duke kinda paused when he picked up the goose like, what's this thing? because it was so big. I think they both look handsome in their camoflauge.

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.
