Yes, I know that technically I took this last night, but it was a great time. It was dad's birthday (as yesterday's said) and Christopher had to work, so it was just the four of us going out for a dinner celebration. Sometimes I forget how good of a time we have when its just us big kids :) I haven't been to Montage in forever, nor have I gorged myself like that in quite some time. But sometimes, when you see mashed potatoes and corn pudding on the same table like that, you cant resist!
Dad waits patiently for his big hunk of barely dead cow. Gross.
How cute are these two? Mom put away more food than the rest of us combined though! I was impressed. But to be fair, she hadn't eaten all day in preparation for the gloriousness.
I haven't worn my hair curly like this in YEARS, but I was super lazy getting out of the shower and figured hey, why not? And I would like to think that it worked out just fine....
Here's where I will admit that tomorrow's picture probably won't actually be from tomorrow either. Oops. But you will all live. Last night was just too crazy awesome not to share!
BUT. I will add in this little piece of yum yum from today just to try and have it count :)
I made Dad a Bears themed lemon bundt cake. As you can see, it didn't exactly fall out of the pan. More like crumbled out, but I did the best I could to piece it back together! Blue and Orange all the way....
Last night, I was taking random angle shots of the house, and Nessa was stalking me and my camera as if she was the feline Paris Hilton. Apparently she decided to forgo all the beauty shots that we normally do, and went straight to action hero leaps from the top of her perch to the top of the kitchen cabinets. Its not the first time she's done it, she does it a lot actually, but that first time...I thought she was going to break her face. She better watch out though, those holiday pounds she's packing on, one of these days it's going to be a long way to the bottom.....
Local weatherman Schnacky made the announcement that by 6am this morning, we had 16 inches of that glorious white stuff. So at 7am, when Tim and I were both wide awake for the day, I knew that work was probably not going to happen. Dad called to say it took two hours to get out of their drive way and I was to stay home all day. And with a little delay, Tim also learned he was home for the day. Snow day! We did nothing. I worked on some Christmas cards, wrapped some gifts and Tim played some video games and watched tivo. Oh, I made pumpkin bread, laced with brown sugar...and then proceeded to eat half the loaf....literally. Every Wednesday should be a snow day!
