Mom hosted a New Year's Eve party today. Erin and I took the opportunity to celebrate with a bottle of Kuleto wine that we got while we were in California. Obviously this calls for a photo op in front of the tree. :-D HAPPY NEW YEAR!Wednesday, January 6, 2010

Merry Christmas! Our day started with Christmas Morning at my house and the afternoon at Jason's grandparent's house. Above is the exchange of Ugly Gifts (Erin won because of the 'thing' Jason is holding in the photo. It was a good competition though.) And the girls holding their bags I made them (which they LOVED!) :-) It was such a great day spent with family!December 24, 2009

Erin and I always attempt to make a gingerbread house every year but, for some reason, it never happens. This year, we got a tree to make instead and we actually did it! We poured some champagne, mixed the frosting, and got right to it! We were both really happy at how our little tree turned out. This will have to be our new tradition!

Kristen and Dane are in Vermont!!! They came up for the weekend to see us! After spending some time with family we spent some time in the hot tub, drank some wine, craved Chinese food, and then did some cuddling. I love love love that they were able to meet our families and spend some time with us in the NEK!

Today we went with Erin and Dad to pick out the Christmas Tree. It's a tradition that we all go (while Mom stays home and gets the house ready) and that we walk around in the cold for a long time before Erin agrees on a tree. Then, Jason cuts it down! Typically Dad cuts it down, but the past couple years Jason has been buff and muscular enough to kill it himself! :-) Oh, and the puppies come too so they can run around and play in/eat the snow.

Home home home! Jason and I are on our way to Vermont today to spend the holiday with family and friends! This is on the drive through the notch in NH.

I made my own gift labels this year and I am basically in love with them. They have polka dots... I'm pretty sure that's why I love them.

The bags I have been making for the girls are ready! Aren't they FUN!?!? I am THRILLED at how they came out and really hope the girls like them!

Our Christmas cards are all ready to mail! I am so excited about these cards and hope that everyone likes them!

Jason wants to make Peanut Butter Fudge this season to give out to his coworkers. Here he is stirring and stirring. He made SO MUCH fudge (15 pounds) and it was so yummy!

We went to the Science Museum of Minnesota to see the Titanic Exhibit today. The exhibit was really great and we had a good time. They even had a Gillette razor that was brought up from the site.

Today I tried out a new recipe for chocolate waffles. They were less like waffles and more like chocolate bread that was incredibly moist. SO yummy and more like dessert than breakfast.

Jason got his Christmas gift from P&G today (every employee gets one). Check out all these goodies! This was a REALLY fun box to open and we will definitely put a lot of this to good use.

It's SO cold in Minnesota that our thermometer is now covered in snow and displaying a 'Lo' reading, whatever that means. I think it means we have to move it because it's frozen.

Lots of sewing lately! I am working on 4 bags that I am making for Christmas presents for my cousins. The fabric makes these really fun to make!

I've been working on our Christmas cards lately and could not be happier with how they are coming out. I just love them and can't wait to send them out to our family and friends.

While at a craft fair this past weekend, Jason and I basically HAD to have these prints (we are huge Mario fans.) I framed them today and think they look so good!

Some candy canes to eat/add to the tree and Booger playing with/chewing on the Christmas lights before we put them up. She is so silly.

We visited Minneapolis today to walk around a bit and just happened to get there right before the Hollidazzle Parade started! It was so much fun to watch an impromptu parade in the city (even though it was really cold!)

Booger napping in the guest room and Jason disturbing her to pet and kiss her. She looks so perturbed.

Jason and I went to the Mall today to take the photos for our Christmas card. It was so much fun! Yes, we took out photos in a photobooth!

I packed up a few things to send to my bestest friend in Vermont, Jess, because she recently found out that she is pregnant! I made her a cute card (that I didn't want to give away) and got her a necklace and some chocolate.
