Sorry everyone, I've been slacking in the updating department.
Thanksgiving has come and gone and so much has been happening! I had an excellent Thanksgiving split between Ricky and I's family. I had so much to be thankful this year! The first few things that come to mind when Thanksgiving is mentioned are: fall, family, and football ha. Three of my all time favorite things :) While at Thanksgiving dinner at Ricky's parents, everyone was discussing Bedlam football coming up....so in the spirit of things, Ricky's mom went and got little Ellie Kate ready for the big game.

Bedlam had finally arrived, the day I was excited and scared to death for. This was the first real test for Ricky and I's "House Divided". All in all, the game ended sadly but my relationship stayed in tacked haha. It was a beautiful day to tailgate and enjoy the last home game of the season for the Cowboys.

With Thanksgiving behind us for another year, it was time to gear up for Christmas. So the next weekend I had some time and put up the Christmas tree in my new little apartment. I used the ornaments that my grandmother had made, some of them wood that my grandpa had cut out and she had painted, and others that she had crochet. Since they are both in heaven, I always get a little teary eyed when I put them up because I remember all the good times we would have at their house for the holidays.
Christmas time typically means lots of holiday parties and get togethers, and this year doesn't disappoint. Lots of activities coming up which include friends, Christmas lights, food, gifts, and laughter.
