Various Jan 2008 Happenings

Well, my third trimester has begun. My belly is now big enough that the cats find it a very convenient resting spot.

Art and Fran gave us this fabulous pasta bowl for Christmas. Needless to say, just as soon as I could, I made pasta! For about 6 people. Too bad we are only 2!

I am fairly certain this picture puts us in the bad parents hall of fame. The in the Pack N' Play is one of those things that is just not supposed to be allowed. Oops

And the obligatory belly picture. This one is as of today 6 Jan. No matter how hard I think I have squared my shoulders, I'm hunched!

The Annual Dinner!

Post presents, pre dinner

Unfortunatly, it's tough to capture the tree and the lights being all sparkly.

There were many fabulous gifts this year, one of the best was my new 1.3 qt copper pot. I used it for three different dishes on Christmas day alone, and I have no idea how I lived without it!

Getting the Tree

There is a great Christmas tree farm not far from us. Picking out a tree takes no time at all. And cutting and carrying it is a cinch when the guys come with a small chain saw and a four wheeler!

This is Aggie's preffered spot for all of Christmas. All the best parts of the outside, except it is inside!
