Kicking Off the Season

Our Thanksgiving was a small event - just the four of us. Parker and I were sick, sick, sick, so we spent much of the day unconscious on the couch or on the bathroom floor, curled around the toilet. So we were thankful for the comforts of home, being together - and (oh very thankful) that we weren't sick and traveling. Jerod cooked a pared-down dinner all by himself (which he likes and does anyway, by the way). We felt good enough to eat by late afternoon, so we were able to celebrate a little.





By Saturday, we were feeling much better and ready to get OUT of the house. So we headed to Country Cove Christmas Tree Farm. This is at least our third year coming to this place, and we love it. Give it a try if you've never been there. Free cider and hot chocolate, hayrides, Santa, a little gift shop, and some of the nicest kids to help you with your tree. If you don't find one you like in the field, they have plenty of big, fluffy pre-cut trees you can buy.



It was a beautiful day - mid-60s. No snow in sight.


Parker gave Santa a long and detailed account of a certain toy he wants for Christmas.

Sawyer noticed the similarity in suits ...


Later, we decorated.
