This is my purple tree. I know purple isn't exactly the quintessential color of Christmas but I love it and it goes so well with the silver. I think Joe liked this tree but was a little sad that I didn't really want any non-purple or silver ornaments on the tree. So I put up another tree. Here it is:



It has all of Joe's and my childhood ornaments on it. I also put some of my brother's ornaments on there since I am having Christmas dinner at my house. There are even some that my mom made.

This month has been pretty busy. We went to Brenda's birthday party:


We also visited some of Joe's friends in Columbus...


Joe held his friend's newborn....awwwww:


We've been decorating outside and by "we" I mean Joe. Picture to be added because I forgot the camera at home.

We've been baking and by "we" I mean me. But Joe handles the clean up so I think that counts as helping.

More to come.......
