The tree is up, the stockings are hung, the cookies have been baked, the presents are wrapped....we are ready for Christmas!
It's been a busy few weeks--we had Thanksgiving with friends at our house (which I completely forgot to take any pictures of...) and the next day we put up all of our Christmas decorations--

Joel working on putting on the lights...we put our tree in the office this year becuase we were leaving Sammy at home the next weekend while we were in NC for my cousin's wedding

This is how Sammy helps decorate for ChristmasYesterday I cooked all day--I made sausage balls, cheese straws, a chocolate truffle pie, thin mint cookies, peanut butter cup cookies and chocolate cookie bark. Whew! It was awesome though because while I was cooking, Joel cleaned the house for me...I think I got the good end of that deal. So we are all ready for Christmas. Now if I can just make it through five more days of work I'll be done until January 2nd!
I'm going to throw this pic in here and resist doing a whole post on my cousin's wedding...it was quite an experience. I'll just leave it at that. But here's a picture of me and my sisters at the reception--notice how I'm shorter than them? Yeah, I'm wearing three inch heels and they're wearing flats. So not fair. At least I'm still taller than you mom--haha.
