Pre-Thanksgiving 2008

Even though we are miles away from our friends in California, we decided to continue our annual tradition of having a Pre-Thanksgiving dinner. This was our ninth year of doing this dinner and although we had fun with our new friends, we missed our old friends. Over the past 9 years our dinner group grew from 8 single young adults to 21 people consisting of families. We started again this year with a small group but I am without a doubt that it will get better every year. Drew...we missed your sweet potatoes.

November Snow

Sorry for such a large gap between postings. I sort of got behind and had all sorts of stuff I wanted to share but felt like I needed to post about the old stuff first. I have lots of fun pictures to share.
We had our first snowfall in November and we were really excited. We stood outside in it late at night just so we could experience the fun of it. Little did we know that the November snow was just a tease and we had a lot more in store. The next morning I woke Lyndsey up and kept telling her how we were going to go out and make a snowman. I got us both bundled up in our new snow clothes only to realize that the snow was too powdery for snowman making. I was totally disappointed in a little kid kinda way.
