Picture Overload

It may have been awhile since we took pictures and uploaded pictures around our house.  So this will be a very long post (mostly visual) to get you up to date.
Our house at night.  Can you see the left string at the top of the roof line is out.  Well it seems we have some busy little squirrels who keep chewing through our lights.  We have already lost 4 small white strands and one large red strand.  Not sure what to do about that, and we have hundreds of squirrels around here.

 This picture I mainly posted so you could see my double chin.  I was completely unaware I had one....going to have to work on that.
 Here are a couple of pictures of our brand new fireplace logs installed on Friday.  We have been enjoying them, it makes the family room so much cozier.  For now you will have to use your imagination to see the new fireplace mantel, columns, and trim work all in white.  It should finally complete the room (well in our heads at least, this project is way down on the list of priorities).

 Our church had a Christmas cantata this morning, and Bella did a great job watching and listening.  Of course every time the choir stopped singing (and I really do mean every time) she would talk in a very loud voice.  It made us laugh, and some times during speaking parts or solos we had to quietly hush her, or cover her mouth.
 When we got home we let her play around with the new battery operated LED lights Jesse had bought.  She thought they were great.





 We tried to get a family portrait in front of the fireplace.  Here is a shot showing our lovely blackened brick.
 Sometimes it's hard to hold Bella up and maker her look like she is sitting independently.  As you can see, I might have been trying a little too hard here.
 Well it's a couple more days of work and then off for the holidays.  I have been busy making cookies around here and trying to get all the last minute gifts.  Not too mention the pile of gifts staring up from below the tree waiting to be wrapped.  Kind of wishing I would have taken this whole week off...........
