Christmas in November?

Yes it is true...I've already been to an ugly Christmas sweater party!

These are pictures from the party because...well I didn't take my camera. So here are some before shots. For all you Facebook users there are more pics there.

But here we are getting ready :-)

I'm glad that I've officially grown out of my no Christmas before Thanksgiving phase. I have been enjoying all things Christmas...especially the music! I just love it! It's a great time of year. Also I think that it reminds me that this semester will eventually come to an end! I really can't wait!

Our sweaters were a hit at the party!! Thanks Alst for letting me borrow them! Everyone thought we were so cool for having Christmas sweater December. For those of you who don't know in High School my friends and I use to wear an ugly Christmas sweater every day in December...granted some were more dedicated than others. It was still fun and people up here thought we were pretty cool!

Well I feel like I should end this with Merry Christmas...but since we still haven't had Thanksgiving I will refrain and wish you a Happy Thanksgiving!

Love ya!

Happy Birthday Cars-a-nator and Erika!!!

November 4h is Carson's birthday and November 5th is Erika's b-day so we were lucky to have them make the trip up here last weekend so we could celebrate with them!

Saturday we had a birthday party for Carson. It was Thomas the Train themed! Such a fun time and the party turned out really cute! The cake was super cute and really well done! Well done Erika on everything!!

Carson was a little overwhelmed with all the attention and here he is trying to stick his hand in his pocket. Couldn't get him to look up.

Cute little family! Carson's loving the party can't you tell...He really did have fun though!

Mother and son.

Father and son. Ty is trying to get Carson to smile...tough job.

Duck Duck Goose anyone?

Great Grandparents, Kris and baby Ryder all enjoying the party!

Beautiful day to have it too!

Red Light, Green Light.

I've discovered Megan has a hard time just smiling for a picture...

It was a great party and worth the drive down for! Glad Tyler, Erika, and Carson came up so we could see them!!

Love ya!

Halloween...Well more like the Howl!

Natalie came up to visit for the howl! It was a blasty blast! We went to Angie's to clean the sink before the party.

Then we went back and got ready!

I was a hippie and Steph was a Harry Potter character.

The gang. Marlee, Jason (Steph's cousin), Adam (Steph's cousin), Steph, C.J., Julia, Natalie, Kristina (one of my roomies), and me!

It was a great time. And honestly the howl wasn't as terrible as everyone says. It was just a bigger version of a regular college party. You really make it what you want.

A lot has been going on so I made this just to give you a quick summary of it.
