finally!

It's finally acceptable to break out all the decorations, flip the Christmas tunes on and go get a tree! I know a certain someone (*cough* Katie) who starts sometimes before December but I can't bring myself to do it- yet anyways. We headed over to our local nursery and got a real tree this year. We normally just use this doinky 3 foot fake tree since we are usually gone for the holidays but this year Siena and I convinced B that we needed a real tree. We told Siena to pick any tree she wanted and this was the winner....

seriously she picked 1 needle.

We decided the go with a whole tree just to keep her off her game.The best part- putting the angel on top!

thanksgiving

In my book Thanksgiving isn't officially over until ALL the leftovers are out of the fridge. I'm happy to report the last of the potatoes are gone and if I never hear the word "tur-duck-en" again I will be a happy girl. The whole affair was sort of a blur with the move and everything else going on in the middle of it all.

So on to some pics to recap:

Anyone curious what a tur-duck-en looks like when you slice it up????

Slim and I didn't think it looked too hot but the boys were fascinated (it's the little things).

It tasted fine but I'm an old fashioned kinda girl and I missed my plain turkey leftovers... a tur-duck-en sandwich with cranberry sauce does NOT have the same appeal.

Now that the house is sorta put together here are some shots of the new digs (only a few since these were the only rooms that were clean enough for photos!!!)

Master bedroom

Little room in the master called a master suite- what you are suppose to use if for was beyond us so the craft stuff and computer found a home here.Master bath. It will probably never be this clutter free again. Brandon will make sure of that!

Siena's crazy pink room. It's growing on me and I no longer feel the need for sunglasses every time I enter (it's really that pink). She's pretty much in heaven so it was worth it.Kitchen. Pretty much the greatest room in the whole house!Pic of the family room and dining room. Terrible photo but as good as it gets today...
