Week in Review..

This past week has been a bit crazy. We have been working really hard on getting our living room ready for Christmas. This meant installing a fire place mantel. You can kind of see the fireplace in this picture before our hard work.


Now here is the after:


I think it turned out really nicely. I think it changes the look of the room tremendously. I am not sure if I will ever want to take down my Christmas now. I have wanted a fireplace for as long as I can remember to decorate. And I love how the mantle is full of nativities that we have gathered in our 5 Christmas seasons together.

Thomas and Brady both love the Tree. Amazingly enough they both do really well at just looking instead of touching, but they do try. We haven't put up the train yet though.



Today Thomas is going in for his post op dr appointment, and then we are going to start getting ready for our trip to Aunt Debbie's next week for Thanksgiving. I can't believe Thanksgiving is only a week away. Where did November go?
