This weekend really did feel like Winter! We had one of those weekends (weather-wise) where you just want to curl up on the couch, watch Christmas movies, and drink hot chocolate. We did spend some time at home but I do like to get out and do things. Saturday evening, Nene came with us to the Mall and Avery rode the Carousel and played in the large playhouse and then Scott and I went to dinner with friends in the city at Reef. It’s nice to live outside the city away from it all but then be able to hop in for some fun! Sunday morning we relaxed and then took Avery to go ride the Choo-Choo train at the Galleria. We haven’t really prepared for cold weather so I needed to pick up some things for us to stay warm in now that I no longer fit into my normal tops and Avery has grown out of everything she has. As an extra bonus, A got to pick out her own Godiva chocolate truffle which was really cute because she knew exactly which one she wanted. This is so like Avery. She is very decisive.
On another note, we were at our house (the one under construction) on Saturday and she told Scott she wanted to go fishing pole. Scott took her fishing the week before so when she saw the lake behind our house, she remembered.
House Update: We are planning to move in three weeks so hopefully the house will be very close to complete. I will be soooooo relieved once everything is done. It has been quite a journey and a ton of work. More than anything, we are just super ready to finally get there and settle in. Everything is being trimmed out at this point. These pics are from a month ago.
That is going to be one stunning house!! Love to catch up on your blog… !
Love your new house and especially the roof. Looking forward to more house pics.
Oh that new house is going to be gorgeous!

Hi! This question has nothing to do with your current post (your house will look amazing!). I’ve been doing research on cameras lately and was wondering if you are staying with your current camera or getting the new Nikon D7000? Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving as well! I really like my D90 and think I’m going to stick with it for a while.
I found your website many months ago on Kelly’s Korner. I love reading your blog. Avery is so beautiful.
You haven’t posted in a while and I just wanted to say I miss your posts and that I’m praying for you and your family. I hope and pray that your not posting is because you are busy with the new home.
I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.

Hi Lynn,
Thank you for your very sweet comment and thank you for your prayers! We are so busy and in between homes (semi-homeless) right now staying with my sister and brother-in-law so life is certainly chaotic. It has been very stressful as we were supposed to have moved in by now. I do hope to post soon (maybe this evening) 🙂 You’ve given me the motivation I need to update the blog. I’m so behind.
