Birthday Celebration

We celebrated Chuck's 50th by all getting together and having a good time. We had a small second Thanksgiving Dinner, due to the fact he was snowed in in the mountains over the real holiday. Chucks dad La Var came to town to surprise him! 

Mom and I made this semi truck cake. It was some trial and error! In the end I think it turned out pretty good. We decided it was making a left hand turn!

Christmas Tree 2010

I have always loved to put up our Christmas tree the weekend after Thanksgiving. To me it means a whole month to enjoy it's beauty! We had a good time putting up and decorating it this year. Lindsay was excited and looking forward to it, which made it that much better!

Girls Night

A little while ago, I'd say mid-October, we had a girls night. It was a blast. We had a nice steak dinner, followed by some foot bathes and some hand scrubs. Everyone then cleansed with a detoxifying face mask! This picture is definitely a sight to see!

We were also very lucky to have Joe stick around and give everyone foot massages! He was such a good sport! Lindsay wanted her turn, and she loved it. She still puts her feet up to be rubbed every once in a while.
