Hi again. Kate and I were busy again today, this time starting up our Xmas decorating. Kate has been rapidly building an arsenal of Xmas spirit over the past couple weeks, honing her shopping skills! We picked up some lights, wreaths, and a tree today, along with other holiday essentials. I have also included a couple updated pictures from the kitchen - new microwave; no more range hood!

 

Happy Holidays everyone! We hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving this long weekend and didn't work too hard. Kate and I had our first Thanksgiving dinner in our new home this year and we think it turned out pretty well. We really enjoyed having everyone over and being able to show off the progress we have made over the last five months. It was nice to give Kate's parents a break for a change. As you can see, the turkey was edible and everything came out as we hoped it would. I feel much better about future holiday dinners now that we have gotten the first one out of the way and know what to expect. Here are some pictures from the day. 

Thanks!

We just wanted to thank everyone for thinking of us on our anniversary. I wanted to thank everyone for wishing me a happy 30th Birthday. Thanks everyone we love you.
Kate and Rick
