what we've been up to

So for Thanksgiving we stayed here. With Scott's work schedule it didn't make any scene to drive and hurry back. so we saved our money, from not driving, and went out to eat! It was a first for the both of us. We went to Mimi's Cafe, they had the most AWESOME sweet potatoes I have ever had! we even took home leftovers! It was so worth it! no dishes to clean, nothing to cook, nothing to plan for! it was nice.

Scott had been working for a day or so before Thanksgiving, to get all the lights up. He decided to go all out this year in case you couldn't tell. I even get home this afternoon and he has put on another addition (that I didn't capture on film, sorry honey) it's like a 7 1/2 foot star! On top of our house! totally decked out, with just over 300 lights! Amazing!

It was also a really nice day on Thursday. The weather couldn't of been better, it was so warm that even I, went for a little motorcycle ride with Scott! It's kind of tradition with my family the last few years, that the boys go out of a motorcycle ride, on Thanksgiving.

The middle picture of us and Rocky was taken on Friday night at the light parade. It was our first year of being there. Some of our neighbors had invited us. They even warmed us up later with hot chocolate at their place after. What awesome friends we have!
I went and got my nerd on, at the midnight showing of "New Moon" with my girlfriends. Holy Buckets, it was a whole lot crazier this year than it was last. Last year we didn't have to stand out side. This year, we were out side for a good 45 min! Yeah, I was pretty frozen, but I think it was worth it! I kept gushing about it enough that Scott took me that following Sunday to go see it again! Isn't he perfect! (Scott that is.)
Rocky is being Rocky. Cute and lovable and a good companion for Scott and I, we love him to death. We saw this coat and just had to get it for him! It fits all of us perfect don't ya think?! (it says "biker dude") cute huh!
We went up to see Ryan, Emily and the kids last night, and took Rocky with us. Emily made a wonderful taco soup and wickedly good cinnamon rolls! The kids loved Rocky, and so did he! We all had a blast!

I think that's everything for now. I'm quite proud of my blogging skills lately! I just need to keep on top of it. I know that a lot of people have the same problem, so I shouldn't be so hard on myself. But until next time. . .
