Two days before Christmas, we had Rittgers' Christmas with my dad's family. It was so much fun having them over!

Ornament Hanging Fun
We have had such a wonderful time with Deanna while she's been here for Christmas break! Sadly, she has to leave tomorrow to go back to Kentucky - so it was a short break, but very fun! Just a few days after she got here, we hung our homemade ornaments on the tree. Here are some pics of our evening:

Holiday Baking
Last week, we ventured out and made frosted cut-out sugar cookies! They are delicious, but a lot of work! We had so much fun though!
We are getting very excited about Christmas! But, right now Nikki is SICK! Not fun! So your prayers would be appreciated for her! And we are in for another blizzard this week! Sooo, that could mess up some plans! REALLY hoping it either holds off or isn't too bad!

Let It Snow
This has been a very cold and snowy December! We had a blizzard last week and all of the snow that we got during that time is STILL here!
They said that any exposed part of your body could freeze in one minute - hence why Nikki is bundled up so much!

Oh, Christmas Tree
Our family set up our Christmas tree last week - but it was a little different without Deanna here! We set up the tree and put the lights on, but we decided to wait until she gets home to put our homemade ornaments up. The picture above is of me imitating my favorite quarterback, Tim Tebow! What do you think? =) Speaking of the Florida Gators, I was very disappointed at their loss last Saturday in the SEC Championship....but my spirits were greatly lifted when I heard they will be playing in the Sugar Bowl on New Years Day! I think my cousin and I may get together and have a party! =)

Turkeys and Snowflakes
It's December already...is it possible? And the wonderful thing about it is that it's snowing!! The Christmas spirit is abundant here at our home - Christmas music, setting up our Christmas decor, and watching the snow lightly dust the ground....a wonderful feeling! Isn't it great how God lets us enjoy even these "small" things in life?
Here are some pictures from our Thanksgiving day! We had most of the family from my Dad's side over, as well as my Mom's brother.

Deanna with Rachel
Here are some pictures we took while at our Downtown Christmas - it was pretty cold, but lots of fun! We ran into some friends from church and hung out with them some. It was a very jolly time - everyone was in the Christmas spirit! They had fireworks, they lit the Christmas tree, had Santa Claus repell down a building wall (he is now officially in town!), and had music blasted over the streets. It made for a fun evening - and Deanna was there to share it with us, which was nice!
