A Much Needed...

4 day vacation!! Rylan and I definitely enjoyed our 4 day weekend! We didn't have the usual amount of Thanksgivings to go to this year..so we really got to spend some quality time together. Thursday we had Thanksgiving at noon with the Rusks and then we stopped by Grandma's to see everyone. Friday we got out our Christmas decorations and put up the trees. Oh yes! Plural! TREES!
Our tree is not real..oh yes Jared Cummins..we are communists! :-) (Rylan was highly allergic to real Christmas trees when he was a baby..not so much anymore..however..we don't want to chance anything) Sheila and Larry gave us their old tree and it is beautiful!! We have both of our ornaments on it from the time we were little..all the way up to our first house and first Christmas ornaments. Such a merry little tree it is!


And then we have the weeee-little silver pom-pom tree. It has old ornaments on it and some in the apothecary jar next to it. It needed a tree skirt so I used an old quilt remnant that I had. I just love this little tree!! It's definitely my fav!



We put away the fall decorations and re-decorated the house for Christmas. We went and cut down some greenery so we'd have some to decorate with both inside and out. Saturday we got things ready for the Bromm Thanksgiving..cleaned..ran some errands..and we to the Christmas Parade that evening. Our church won the Queen's Award!! Woo Hoo! Way to go everyone!

Sunday was the usual..church and then Thanksgiving with the Bromms. We did a lot of lounging and got some much needed rest! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
