31 weeks and almost done!

I can't believe how fast time has gone by with this pregnancy! All of the holidays have definitely helped speed things along. I pretty much have everything done in the baby's room. Just a few finishing touches and I'll be finished. I couldn't find any baby bedding that I liked for a boy (and I looked all over!) so I made it. I realized that there's a lot about sewing that I still don't know. Luckily my Mom is a great seamstress and she was able to help me when I needed it. So I made the bumper pads and the dust ruffle. I was prepared to make sheets if I needed to, but I was able to find some that match (hooray!). Of course today, as I was looking online for a glider, I found some super cute boy bedding that I would have totally bought if I hadn't made this. Where was it a couple weeks ago? Oh well, I like that I was able to make something special for my boy that he'll enjoy every day.

The Dog House


Check out this great video that Keith showed me when he got home from work today. It is so funny and clever. Be prepared to laugh. One of the funny things is that I would actually love to get a new vacuum as a gift from Keith.

Thanksgiving Day

My sister, Amber, and her husband, Michael came here from Laramie, WY for Thanksgiving. Here she is before the 10K Turkey Trot that Michael ran in on Thanksgiving morning.

Michael and a guy from NAU.


Michael won the race! Hooray! Here he is with the 2nd place guy from NAU (who doesn't look as happy as Michael).

Meanwhile, Keith's sister, Jenny, came across the finish line. Way to go Jenny! Let's not forget to mention that she was in a triathlon a few weeks earlier. You're amazing!

Michael with his 1st place turkey! Okay, let's go eat!


Here's the turkey that I sculpted on top of my apple pie.
