Winter is here!

Hello Everyone!

Well, after an AMAZING summer and a much longer than usual Fall, winter has arrived in Alaska! We have had our first snow, the temperatures are colder and the days are shorter. However, with winter comes the holiday season! The house is currently decorated for Thanksgiving and we have lights up outside already. We will start decorating for Christmas soon, and I can't wait! This year we are continuing our "Black Friday" tradition of staying up all night with friends and getting in line for shopping at 3am! Many of the black friday ad's have already been released on-line and we are already planning our attack! Here are some of the things that we have been up to:

  • Filled our "Operation Christmas Child" shoe boxes last night for Samaritans Purse. This is something that we do every year and always enjoy!
  • Last Friday (the 13th) I celebrated my 3rd year anniversary with Extended Stay Hotels!
  • We bought tickets to go to U2 in Seattle next June!!
  • Have decided that a Blu-Ray player is on our "black friday" list this year.
  • Sherri has been busy painting Thanksgiving / Christmas crafts, and then look awesome!
