Tis the season...

To be blog slacking!!! I have failed to post anything about our family trip to Lake Arrowhead, Thanksgiving and many other holiday festivities. This time of year gets so busy and then I forget my camera!  I am just going to throw some pictures on here of the some of the activities we have been doing over the past few weeks.

Baby Tanner's baby blessing
Luke and I in Lake Arrowhead. 
John and Haws swinging the boys. They loved this and could probably swing all day if we had the patience to push them that long.
Baby Tanner bundled up for a walk down on 2nd street. 
My friend Kimberly and her husband Doug had their little girl last month. This is their first child and she is so good! She just fell asleep on me for a good 30 mins. Kimberly said in the 4 weeks she has been home, she has only cried about 3 times. Amazing!!!!

Thanksgiving spread at the Bendheims... yum yum!
Redge letting the tryptophan from the turkey work its magic.
One of the shots Callie took for our Christmas card. I love the way Haws looks in this picture... his eyes are so blue! Too bad I am looking a little weird or this one would have made the cut.
This is our little Christmas tree. We got it from a tree farm in Irvine where you pick your tree and they cut it fresh for you. This is a tradition I want to keep going. I love REAL Christmas trees! We have a modge podge assortment of ornaments and add to our collection whenever we take a trip.

I didn't know about that tree farm in irvine! Good idea. Lots of festivities! Hey, and what is that meat dish at the bendheims with the cranberries strewn across the top. That looks delicious. I want to look it up, whatever it is.

Sounds like a ton of fun! Glad you are doing well. I need to pick your brain one day about different recipes since you are a little chef yourself :) Hope you have a Merry Christmas!!
